Attention: An HTML-formatted e-mail notification always includes one attachment. The attachment is called Notification Detail Link and it provides a direct link to your notification in the Notification Details web page.
Note that your Web browser must support JavaScript and Frames to open this attachment. When you open the Notification Detail Link attachment, it automatically attempts to establish a web session with your web server. In doing so, it authenticates your access, verifies that your notification is still open, and displays a message if the notification is already closed.
You may respond directly to your notification from this Notification Details page, bypassing the need to process your response through the Notification Mailer. If you decide to respond from the Notification Details page, skip the remaining steps. See: To View the Details of a Notification.
Warning: Do not include any HTML-formatting in the e-mail response.
Note: Response templates generated from a response link in an HTML-formatted e-mail notification provide single quotes to enclose your response values, rather than the double quotes provided in plain text response templates. This use of single quotes accommodates e-mail applications that cannot process double quotes in the <A HREF="mailto:"> tag for the link but can accept single quotes.
Note: If you send an invalid response, the Notification System sends you an "invalid response" message. If you respond to a notification that has been canceled, you get a message informing you that the notification was canceled. Similarly, if you respond to a notification that was already previously responded to, you get a message informing you that the notification is closed.
