anchor tags

[Guest]

In the followng expression:

<a href="(e-mail address removed)">CONTENT</a>

what is acceptable as CONTENT? Specifically, if I try to wrap an entire
table with the anchor tag, the link doesn't work in MSIE. Why not? (This
works in Firefox.)

Thanks.

It must be inline content.

It must be inline content.

OK, but if that's the case, shouldn't the following code make an entire
table cell work as a link:

<a href="(e-mail address removed)"><span><td>.....</td></span></a>

(Isn't "<span>" an inline tag?) However, this does not work.

Any thoughts?

span is an inline tag, but td is not. you can't put td inside span.
