Send html email in opencart
// put this above code for your html email

$mail->setHtml(html_entity_decode($message, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'));

See example shown below :-

$mail = new Mail();
                $mail->protocol = $this->config->get('config_mail_protocol');
                $mail->parameter = $this->config->get('config_mail_parameter');
                $mail->hostname = $this->config->get('config_smtp_host');
                $mail->username = $this->config->get('config_smtp_username');
                $mail->password = $this->config->get('config_smtp_password');
                $mail->port = $this->config->get('config_smtp_port');
                $mail->timeout = $this->config->get('config_smtp_timeout');             
                //$mail->setTo($this->config->get('config_email'));
                //$mail->setFrom($this->request->post['email']);

                $mail->setTo('test1@test.com');
                $mail->setFrom('test@test.com');

                $mail->setSender($this->request->post['name']);
                $mail->setSubject(html_entity_decode('La reserva de tu alquiler ha sido correcta', ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'));
                $mailText = '
                <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
                <html>
                    <head>
                        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
                    </head>
                    <body>
                        <div class="confirmacion">
                            <h1>This is my html template for email</h1>
                            <p> I am using this content for sending it as html content in mail for opencart store..</p>
                        </div>
                    </body>
                </html>';



               $mail->setHtml($mailText);
               $mail->setText(html_entity_decode($mailText, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'));
                $mail->send();

In this above example, we have assign html code within a variable $mailText and we pass that variable in setHtml() function for sending mail with html content. That’s all.
