Hi,

I'm using the survey module for our forms and when they submit a form, the resulting e-mail that is sent has <em> tags placed in the subject line and at the bottom of the e-mail where it says who submitted the form and when.

Example:
Submitted by <em>admin (http://www.mydrupalsite.com/users/admin)</em> on <em>Tue, 10/23/2007 - 09:37</em>

Is there a patch for this or will it be fixed in an update to this module? Many of our users do not have HTML enabled on their e-mail clients so sending just plain text e-mails would be best.

Rob

I found what was causing the issue, not sure if it is a bug, or a feature request now.

The issue is that the module provider has decided that you will want to have HTML formatted emails. In using the % style of placeholder it which indicates that the string should be HTML escaped and highlighted with theme_placeholder() which shows up by default as <em>emphasized</em>.

I have changed the placeholder on my site to be ! (replaced every instance of % on lines 332 and 338 in the survey.module file) which renders the text as-is.

The Drupal API documentation for the t() function which is used on these lines is here

Thanks, peligrorice. That worked for me. I'd been running it all through strip_tags(), but yours is much nicer.
