Thread: banner link

I have a scrolling banner on my website and I want to be able to link this to another page. Anyone know how to do this??

I dont know if there is an easier way but the following is my work around:

On the menu select

Insert>form>advanced button
position and size the button to cover banner
go into button properties
name the button (any name will do)
choose btton type as on click
choose onclick action as navigate to the specified url
and lastly in the on click value enter the page url that you wish to go to....

Create a rectangle that will cover the scrolling banner. Make it same size as your banner, using the sizing tool. Give it colour Fuchsia (which in BV means transparent) and just link it to the other page

if you give me the code for the banner and the page you want it to link to - I'll add the html so that it does so for you.

<FONT color="#800000" size="7" face="Arial ******"><B><I><U><MARQUEE bgcolor="#FFFFFF" height="86" direction="left" scrolldelay="90" scrollamount="6" behavior="scroll" loop="0" style="height:86px">We Will Beat Any Price...Any Terms...Any Day!!!!!!!!! </MARQUEE></U></I></B></FONT>

that is the banner code. the page to link to is http://www.familytimerentals.com/banner.html

the banner is located at
http://www.familytimerentals.com

Didn't know that a marquee could be linked. That's why i suggested covering it with a same size transparent rectangle, then linking the rectangle to the other URL. I'd like to see how it is done.

Just so you know - the page you gave me to make clickable gets an error.
Good luck.

Excellent!

For anyone's information - you can make scrolling pictures clickable also. And, no, most people don't know they can for either.

sorry i am new where do i add the html code to make this work??

Open an html box (top left on the builder) and copy and paste the code into the box - place it where you want this on the page - make sure you size it to be the size of the banner, so you don't have overlapping, etc.
