Buttons in Outlook 2007, 2010, 2013 and 2016


I am getting this stroke inside of the button for a email I'm coding. It only appears in Outlook 2007, 2010, and 2013 and I can't figure out how to remove it? Any ideas?

enter image description here

Code:

`<a href="http://buttons.cm" style="color: #ffffff; background: #a52023; 
 border: 1px solid #a52023;  display: inline-block; font-family: tahoma;
 font-weight: 900; letter-spacing: 2px; font-size: 16px; border-radius: 80px;
 line-height: 60px; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; width: 275px;
 -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; mso-hide: all;">GET FREE WORKWEAR</a>`

Solution

  • Yea, Windows Outlook 2007, 2010, 2013, and even 2016 all have spotty support for the box model. To get a nice-looking, clickable button working (unfortunately) requires a lot more code.

    Might need to play with the border thickness, padding, and number of &nbsp;s, but this should solve your issue and give you a decent-looking, working button across all email clients (including Outlook):

    <!-- Button : Begin -->
    <table role="presentation" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center" style="margin: auto;">
        <tr>
            <td style="border-radius: 3px; background: #a52023; text-align: center;">
                <a href="http://www.google.com" style="background: #a52023; border: 15px solid #a52023; font-family: tahoma; font-weight: 900; letter-spacing: 2px; font-size: 16px; mso-height-rule: exactly; line-height: 60px; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; display: block; border-radius: 3px; font-weight: 900; text-transform: uppercase;">
                    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style="color:#ffffff">Get Free Workwear</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
                </a>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
    <!-- Button : END -->
