Help with using a link

I have a jpeg that I am using as our web banner. There is a menu on it. I have used fireworks to break the menu into slices.Codecharge only sees this as an image and I really am lost as to how I can use this as a link. If I click on one of the slices and try to associate it as a link in under forms it simply puts <Link1> where the slice is supposed to be. Any help would be appreciated!!!

If you just have a static image (or set of images) you can convert it to a link by manually editing the HTML. For example if you switch to HTML and see:

<img src="images/logo.jpg">

then you can add the <a href> tag so the result looks like:

<a href="http://www.google.com"><img src="images/logo.jpg" border=0></a>

Furthermore, you can apply single <a href> tag around multiple images or any HTML section, like:

<a href="http://www.google.com">  
<img src="images/logo1.jpg" border=0>  
<img src="images/logo2.jpg" border=0>  
<img src="images/logo3.jpg" border=0>  
</a>

BTW, if you need the <href> (URL) to be dynamic, you can use a label like:

<a href="{Label1}">  
<img src="images/logo1.jpg" border=0>    
<img src="images/logo2.jpg" border=0>    
<img src="images/logo3.jpg" border=0>    
</a>

and then in the Label's properties specify "Content = HTML" and assign the database field that contains the image URL to the "Control Source" property.
