<A href="mailto:kstanf1998@netscape.net"><img style="position:absolute;top:900px;left:5px;height:40px;width:60px;"src="cactus_email_anim.gif"></A>

add border:0px into the style="" attribute.

Though, just so you're aware, that border is how people know it's a link without having to look at the text. (You could set the border to one pixel, which I think looks better, also.)

<edit>Also, your <a> and </a> tags should be all lower case (as should the rest of your tags)

<edit2> Also, please don't post the same request in multiple forums. Your question will get answered in about the same amount of time, and people won't get mad at having to answer the same question twice (plus, and most importantly, it's against CF rules.)

also, there should be a space between the " and the src.

and you need an alt attribute on the <img> tag, and a title attribute on the <a> anchor tag.

Additionally, inline CSS is just as much code bloat as the font, b, i, etc HTML tags that it replaces. Get all the CSS into one external stylesheet file.

<A> deoesn't require the TITLE attribute.

And I don't think you can email an external CSS file. STYLE attribute is best.

[giz]

The <a> tag does not require the title attribute but it can be usefully employed to give extra information/instructions on mouseover.


I don't understand your comment about not being able to email a stylesheet. This is style for an email link, not for a file that is being emailed.
