It would be easier for us to read and help you if you would put your code within [ code ] tags. Use the # button on the reply screen. And put it in a new post in this topic so we'll know you've been back. Otherwise, we're likely not to see it. :)

hay just learnt something else smart lol
thanks for that one  too

the first code works by means of a clickable image but the second one comes up with url and image not just a image that takes you to another site,i have wrote them the same so why would the second one do what its doing ?

First, you should remove the


"target=_blank"


part of your code. The BBC url tag automatically opens a new browser window when the link is clicked.

I'm not sure why your first one works, to tell you the truth. :) The ending url tag should be after the img tag.

Give this a try:
