Okay, I'm making a graphics website and I need some help.
Whenever I put a scrollbox underneath an image (i.e a website background, doll,banner, ect.)
If you try to highlight the contents of the box (as If you were going to copy and paste the contents into your website editor/neopets shop edit area) It is disabled and a "no" icon appears (the circle with the diagonal line across it).
I don't understand why this is happening. If you know anything that might help, please respond to this!

the link is http://www.freewebs.com/peachpop333/Formal%20dolls.htm

The HTML code for the scrollbox I used is shown below:
<form ACTION=URI><textarea rows="5" cols="26" style="background-color:#ff7777; font-family:verdana; color:#000000; border-style:solid">"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/peachpop333/Formal17blackhairblackdress.jpg" alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com"</textarea></form>

This is slightly off-topic, but thought I'd point it out. Don't tell me that it doesn't work, cause it does and you just need to highlight the WHOLE contents of the scrollbox. The only code that shows up: is"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/peachpop333/Formal17blackhairblackdress.jpg" alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com"You need all the <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/peachpop333/Formal17blackhairblackdress.jpg" alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com"> Unless I'm misunderstanding the purpose of the linkage.

Oops, you were right about the <img scr= picture URL here>
tag.
Thanks for telling me, I'm still a newbie with HTML (obviously)
