HI Leonard,
Yeah i have %lniks% included i believe (i'm no expert), The categoroies seem to work fine but the off site links don't. The strange thing is if it's inside a cell it doesn't work but outside the cell it does. I've been concentrating on this issue but think i also have a problem with the search function which may also be the dsame problem of being inside a table cell. I'll include below the html for a template that works and one that doesn't. If you can please take a look and let me know what i'm doing wrong (probably something dumb). Thanks for taking the time to look and respond.
Keith
This template works fine
