It will be almost impossible to use that code in teh forums unless I change the way urls are handled by the code.

This is not the best way to generate urls - You must be logged in to see this link."_fcksavedurl="You must be logged in to see this link."

At the very least the second url should be urlencoded like this

You must be logged in to see this link." target="_blank">http://www.sponsorhouse.com/Members/cmiller73/?from=1%22_fcksavedurl%3D%22http%3A%2F%2FYou must be logged in to see this link.

I'll have a look and see if I can convert it to that it works.

Padraic,

Its been something I've been wanting to do for a while. You will notice that there is something not right if you look at the second link above. I posted the You must be logged in to see this link. but only the www. showed up.

In order to allow the image to work as a link, there must be an “Imagemap” placed at the host’s cgi-bin. In this case, it would have to be in ForumCo’s cgi-bin. The “Image map” directs the web browser on what to do when the image is clicked on; such as, take the viewer to Chad’s forum in this case.

You don't need an imagemap. You can simply place <a href=""></a> tags around the image. The problem here is that there are two links which are both getting converted.

This is the equivalent in forumcode



Reply with quote to see the code I've used.

Can Chad simply right click and copy your example in the above post, and then use it in his “Banner Signature”?

When I made one for him, and hosted it at one of my website host, it would not work in my forum when being placed in the signature (Banner) area of the post. It showed the image but was not a click able link.
*******

Never mind answering this Padaric, I see that copying the image that way would only copy the image itself. Chad needs to reply with a quote to see the actual code needed to use the image as a link.

The only way around the problem with two links is using You must be logged in to see this link.


Once that problem is fixed its quite easy. You just do it like this

{url="You must be logged in to see this link."}{img}You must be logged in to see this link.{/img}{/url}

Substitute [] brackets for {} ones.
