HTML not coming while sending using email
Code:
echo "$1" > test.txt
awk 'BEGIN{
FS="|"
print  "MIME-Version: 1.0"
print  "Content-Type: text/html"
print  "Content-Disposition: inline"
print  "<HTML>""<TABLE border="1"><TH>Heading1</TH><TH>Heading2</TH><TH>Heading3</TH>"
}
 {
printf "<TR>"
for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)
printf "<TD>%s</TD>", $i
print "</TR>"
 }
END{
print "</TABLE></BODY></HTML>"
 }
' test.txt > test.html

cat test.html | mailx -s "TEST" aaa@abc.com

file content:
Code:
abc|ccccc|dddd

end html file:
Code:
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Disposition: inline
<HTML><TABLE border=1><TH>Heading1</TH><TH>Heading2</TH><TH>Heading3</TH>
<TR><TD>AAA</TD><TD>AAAAAA</TD><TD>AAAA</TD></TR>
</TABLE></BODY></HTML>

I am getting email but the its just writing the same end html file into the body instead of creating a table.

Try using sendmail instead:-
Code:
awk -F\| '
        BEGIN {
                print "To: abc@abc.com"
                print "Subject: TEST"
                print "MIME-Version: 1.0"
                print "Content-Type: text/html"
                print "Content-Disposition: inline"
                print "<HTML>"
                print "<BODY>"
                print "<TABLE border=1>"
                print "<TH>Heading1</TH><TH>Heading2</TH><TH>Heading3</TH>"
        }
        {
                print "<TR>"
                for( i = 1; i <= NF; i++ )
                        print "<TD>" $i "</TD>"
                print "</TR>"
        }
        END {
                print "</TABLE>"
                print "</BODY>"
                print "</HTML>"
        }
' test.txt | /usr/sbin/sendmail -t

I think you need a blank line after Content-Type
