Mail functionality with X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion() is not supporting content type html

Question

In my registration page, I used the below coding for mail content.

$to =$email;

$subject = "Welcome to our site. Verify your Email address";

$body= "<table>

Dear $firstname $lastname,

*This is a system generated email - PLEASE DO NOT reply to this email*</table>";

$headers = 'From: usersupport@JumpingEyes.com' . "\r\n" .
    'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

mail($to,$subject,$body,$headers);

        $display = "<div class='error'>Thank you for creating a new account with JumpingEyes.com.  A confirmation email has been sent to $email for you to activate your new account<br><span style='font-size:12px;font-weight:normal;'><a href='index.php'>Continue....</span></a></div>";

If we received the mail it shows the following output and it is not considering the html tag. If we remove the table tag it does not sending the mail.

And I also used $headers[] = "Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1"; but after tat the mail functionality is not working. Anybody can help me to solve this problem.

Replace headers with below and try..

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Mailer <mailer@example.com>' . "\r\n";
