make background image link?

j111111 · Mar 28, 2003

Hello,

I have a background image in one of my tables that I want to be a link to another site.

I tried drawing a cell over the part of the image I want to be the link (so I could link that) but that messes the alignment of other images/cells/tables in the page.

Does anyone know if it's posible to make the actual background into a link?

Thanks

you could try this

<body onclick="window.location='url'">

you might need to drop the ' around the url but try putting that in the body tag and see if itworks [Hammer]

Thanks, but it just linked whenever the mouse was clicked anywhere in the document body.

I've been sat all morning changing random tiny details of my code, one bit at a time - changing an empty <td> by 1 pixel sorted it out in the end.

Don't know why it worked because it made everything else in the table not add up to the correct size, but it worked, so I shan't complain....

Cheers for the suggestion though
