Change salutation order confirmations to include gender

[davale]

I'm trying to change the salutation on the order confirmation emails to the same format as the account creation emails.

The account creation emails which are generated within modules/create_account.php have a nice check on the gender, so emails can have a salutation like 'Dear Mr. ...' or Dear Ms. ...'. The order confirmation emails on the other hand use the customer first and last name.

Tried copying the code

if (ACCOUNT_GENDER == 'true') {
if ($gender == 'm') {
$email_text = sprintf(EMAIL_GREET_MR, $lastname);
} else {
$email_text = sprintf(EMAIL_GREET_MS, $lastname);
}
} else {
$email_text = sprintf(EMAIL_GREET_NONE, $firstname);
}
$html_msg['EMAIL_GREETING'] = str_replace('\n','',$email_text);
$html_msg['EMAIL_FIRST_NAME'] = $firstname;
$html_msg['EMAIL_LAST_NAME'] = $lastname;

over to classes/mytemplate/order.php but without the desired result. Also tried changing $firstname to $this->customer['firstname'] (and same for lastname) because the order.php seems to have a bit different coding approach. Again no result.

Anyone who has ever done this and could point me in the right direction?
