Hi,

I think you are creating an HTML template with Javascript in the header section. When you embbed it into the email body Qlik NPrinting will send only the <body></body> part and delete the <head></head>. This is for security reasons and to be sure that the email client will be able to render the report in the message body.

If you move the code into the body part of the HTML report Qlik NPrinting will send it but it could be removed by the SMTP server or by the email client.

I suggest to avoid to use Javascript in email bodies.

Best Regards,

Ruggero

Java script will not work on HTML report embedded in email body as all mail clients are switching it off so it does not carry any harmful scripts. Therefore even if you have correct html code with JS it will still not work in mail client, but you might be able to use:"open mail in browser" function to preview it.

On the code side - Ruggero is right, you need to have your script in BODY section for it to be moved to email content
