Answer 1

Try this method, assign the posted values in variables, outside the $message variable and print the variable inside your $message variable
$firstname = $_POST['firstname'];
$lastname = $_POST['lastname'];
$title = $_POST['title'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$course = $_POST['course'];
$website = $_POST['website'];
$message = 'Dear '.$firstName.',
Your Welcome Message.'.'
<table border=1>
<tr>
<td>First Name:</td>
<td>'.$firstname.' </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Last Name:</td>
<td>'.$lastname.'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Title:</td>
<td>'.$title.'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Address:</td>
<td>'.$address.'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Phone Number:</td>
<td>'.$phone.'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Course Name:</td>
<td>'.$course.'</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Website:</td>
<td>'.$website.'</td>
</tr>
</table>

$to ="xxxxxxx#gmail.com";
$subject = "Welcome to Website";
$headers = 'From: xxxxxx <noreply#xxxxxxx.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html;\n\tcharset=\"iso-8859-1\"\r\n";
$sent = #mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
if ($sent) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
Also add necessary header to send HTML mail as Vinoth Babu, Naveen suggested

Answer 2

$to = "naveen#gmail.com";
$subject = $name ." is contact ";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" . "\n";
#mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
set headers to mime version & type of your message like text/html

Answer 3

To send HTML Content/Tables you have to add the following in the header of that mail,
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
