Ok I have a basic HTML link here, but as you will see the link is then set up to process a phrase from vBulletin. I want to be able to place an image in the post bit and then have the image link to the linked phrase.

This probably makes no since but take a look and I think you will understand.

<a target="_blank" href="http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=$userinfo[host]&submit=Search+WHOIS">$userinfo[host]</a>


Is the linked phrase. I want to be able to display an image that when clicked processes the linked phrase.

Some examples I tried,
<a target="_blank" href="http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=$userinfo[host]&submit=Search+WHOIS"><img src="link here to image">$userinfo[host]</a></img>
and
<img src="link here to image"><a target="_blank" href="http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=$userinfo[host]&submit=Search+WHOIS">$userinfo[host]</a></img>


Any help is greatly apreciated. Thanks.
