Hi
The email templates use freemarker <<EDIT: They actually use Velocity >> so you are limited to what you can do however i wont claim to know too much about it because i dont :) other than everytime i play with my email templates i break them.
There are a lot of TKB and user content on here, just found this but may be a bit bsic for what you're after...

Thanks
- in additional to what Fellsteruk has mentioned: you may use JavaScript with normal HTML in email body, but most of email server will block JavaScript in email body.
Note that as stated in the TKB article linked above, email templates don't use Freemarker but Velocity instead. You should be able to use the context objects listed on the page as long the velocity syntax is correct.
- I stand correct, thanks for the correction :)
