PHP as in the programming language? Do you mean your E-mail message contains PHP code or that it's being sent by a PHP application?

Entourage 2008 uses WebKit, which is the same HTML rendering engine Safari uses. Try this experiment:

1. Select your HTML in Entourage and then select Message --> Source.

2. Look for the HTML code in the message it will probably start with something like:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>
<html>
<head>
<title>Message title</title>

and end with:

</body>
</html>

3. Select the HTML code from beginning to end and copy/paste into a plain text TextEdit document.

4. Save this TextEdit document as "test.html" to your Desktop.

5. In Safari select File --> Open... and open your test.html file.

Does anything display there? If not then the problem is that the HTML code is not rendering in WebKit (not just Entourage). It may be malformed HTML code.

Hope this helps!
