But what if you want to have paragraphs in your mail message. How do you add new lines to the body? The answer is: hexadecimal. All but alphanumeric characters should be converted to hexadecimal representation, using the escape() method. Even better, you can use our Mailtool to enter all the mail message fields. Try composing a message of your own. Add some new lines in the body's text area. Click the Create URL button, and examine the output URL. You can see that each new line is converted into %0D%0A. This is the Carriage Return (%0D) and Line Feed (%0A) that are inserted into the page when you hit the Enter key. So now you know what to do when you need to add a new line. Just add "%0D%0A", or even better, use the Mailtool.
