Perhaps if you put some spaces after your angle brackets so that this html doesn't EXECUTE this might be easier to read .

[Cindy Glass]

Well, I an no HTML expert by any means, but I thought that that is what anchor tags are for.
onmouseover="this.style.color='#ff0000'"
onmouseout="this.style.color='#0000ff'"
< center>< b>< a href="http://www.altavista.com">Link1<; /a>< /b>< /center>
You know we have an HTML forum for questions like this. Randy does LOTS more with this stuff than I do.

Hello again!

What i wanna do is to make the table row clickable!

Well, the comment about the HTML forum is still valid. Why not post in a forum which specializes in what you're doing?

on-click="window.location.href='http://www.altavista.com'"

That should cover you. on-click shouldn't have a dash, but this @#$@#$ forum wouldn't take my post.

Moving this to the HTML forum.

Hi Gilles,
I haven't used this much but have you tried using the <div> tag. I'm not 100% sure if <td> tags use onclick events since I've never had any use of onclicks for this type of case.

change this.href to window.location
"window.location='http://www.altavista.com'"
