Hyperlink a div

[Gangster]

well basically, im making a nav like HabbCrazy.net's, but inorder for the button to show, it needs to be hyperlinked, so i have to hyperlink the whole div if you know what i mean. would it be like this

<a href="..."><div class="style20" id="buttonid"></div><a>

Why don't you just make the button then do
<img src="urlll" />

[Florx]

<div onclick="location.href='http://www.example.com';" style="cursor:pointer;">content</div>

For gods sake google it lol.

Yep, what florx said, thats how I do it, but as I have several divs to be linked I made a external .js file & made the functions in there, then I load in the js in the html (you know, <script language="javascript"> etc..) & then I just do <div class="name" onclick="linkfunction();">

Because with divs you can use mouse overs. Well, just add a divname:hover into the css, much easier than javascript etc..

Do we really need the negitivety? At first glance most people would instinctively try a link tag around a div. Obviously he tried this and it didn't give him the desired result so he went looking for a better way. Is it a crime to seek help in the 'Design & Development' from [some] knowledgeable members?

Why don't you jsut use the a tag and set the button as the background and the display to block?


.button a
{
display: block;
height: ;
width: ;
background: url('path/to/image');
}

<a href="#" class="button"></a>
