Problem Note 17270: Style not applied properly when sending ODS email
In SAS® 9.1, ODS was changed from HTML3 to HTML4. Style is not always
applied properly in the email due to the process in which ODS streams
data to the email access method.
To circumvent the problem you can do one of the following:
- Change ODS to use HTML3. To do this any "ods html ..." line should
be changed to "ods html3 ..."
Example:
ods html3 body=elecmail style=barrettsblue;
proc report data=sashelp.class nofs;
run;
ods html3 close;
- Save the ODS HTML output to a file and send it as an attachment.
