I got a question in the news ticker  Id like to put banners in there that link to other sites.  Mind you im computer stupid  I can either get the link or the banner or the banner to link to a site that is not of the site i want (its more like the banner home with other text stuck to the url so it goes nowhere)
also tried  <a href="http://urlname"><img src="name of file"></a>  with both [ and > to see if that would work...

basically  i understand  hxxp:* [nonactive] makes the link a url  and makes whatever i stick in between it think its an image IE whatever my banner is in this case.   Can i get the news ticker to double up and make that IMG the Link?  ive tried several ways to no avail and my computer knowledge is that of a rock   so bear with me and thanks for any help in advance.
