CroNiX Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 The [/url] showed up because I didn't enclose it in code tags. Please note that it should have been an end to the anchor tag as seen below. To get rid of the underline for the link: <a href="bar1.jpg" style="text-decoration:none"><img src="bar1.jpg" /></a> or it would be much better to use it in a css using a class. The style info needs to be in the <head> of your document. <style="text/css"> .nolink { text-decoration:none; } </style> <a href="bar1.jpg" class="nolink"><img src="bar1.jpg" /></a> Yes you can change the color if you wanted. You can also do this using a style sheet.
