links in block dont work

I have installed the Affiliates Blcok on my site. It works when i view it in Firefox and the links redirect to the correct pages. But when i use IE i see the block and all the links in it, but when i click on any of the links nothings happens.

Why does it work in Firefox, but not in IE?

well, may be that html code are not compatible with IE. Can you post your block code here?

This is one line of coding that i have used to show the image and use as a link. But like i said it works in Firefox, but not in IE

$content .= "<a href=\"http://www.goteamspeak.com\"><input type=\"image\" src=\"http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/9369/teamspeak88x318ix.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"TeamSpeak\"></a><br><br>";

You shouldn't be using the INPUT tag when you really want the IMG tag

Thnx m8, thats has worked. I can now visit each link, using both firefox and IE.

One more favour. Could u give me the code to make the links open up into a new window, and show me where to put this code in my line of code.

add as a property
target=\"_new\"

I suggest you look for a good HTML tutorial

Sorry to correct you.
That should be target=\"_blank\"

the lines should be:

Code:

$content .= "<a href=\"http://www.goteamspeak.com\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/9369/teamspeak88x318ix.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"TeamSpeak\" /></a><br /><br />";
