Task and Trigger HTML email CSS

[roattw]

Couple questions about Task/Trigger sending of HTML emails.

I was able to insert a results table into the email (using the Set Table Variable) option.  Tryng to apply some styling to thaat table is a bit clunky.  I can apply some CSS to a few elements but not others.  I think the Microsoft built-in Outlook CSS clashes.  For example, in one of the emails received I can see my custom CSS addedd via <style> in the Task HTML, but the Microsoft <style> also appears in the View Source.  Even adding !important doesnt hav emuch effect on some elements.

I added this code using <style> in Task:

 

In the received email the emails View Source shows my CSS and also shows the MS Outlook CSS.

Interestingly, the only CSS of mine that would apply was the table width, th header color, and th/td padding.  No other applied custom css would be honored.

Assume these is no css reset for Outlook.

Also, if you send an email Task as HTM L, and the user has thier email set to text-only, I would presume they then see my custom CSS <style> code?

Hi @roattw

Could you specify which exact CSS properties you are not able to redefine?
I was able to set width, text alignment, padding, borders, background, align-content.

I can see you are using align-content property, but it is applicable only to flex containers. So you would need to add display:  flex  property to your td,th elements

Sorry about that.  Mainly the Table and TH.  The first occurrence of the Table and TH CSS is mine above.  The second CSS for Table/TH is automatically applied by Outlook when message received.  The CSS I apply doesnt do much.
