Linking Header to Homepage

    Hi, I am trying to make it so when people click on my header image, they go back to the main page….so if they leave a comment, instead of having to re type in the page address, they can click on the header and go back to the main page… I am a complete beginner, but I am getting a long ok….I know minimal HTML code, so if you are going to help, be as descriptive as possible. Here is what I think is my header code…

    <style type=”text/css” media=”screen”>
    #headerimg { margin: 0; margin-top: 0px; height: 200px; width: 800px; }

    #headerimg { background: url(‘<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/header.jpg’) no-repeat top;}
    #footer { background: url(‘<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/footer.jpg’) no-repeat top;}

    </style>

    I want that if people click on header.jpg, they are brought back to https://www.sternshowclips.com

    Could someone show me what the new code would look like…

    Thanks! ??

    A href = “www.sternshowclips.com”><style type=”text/css” media=”screen”>
    #headerimg { margin: 0; margin-top: 0px; height: 200px; width: 800px; }

    #headerimg { background: url(‘<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/header.jpg’) no-repeat top;}
    #footer { background: url(‘<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/footer.jpg’) no-repeat top;}
    </a
    </style>

    You’re changing the wrong thing. That’s just a style, you cannot link a style.

    Look lower on your page, where the header is actually displayed. It’ll be something like this:

    <div id="header">
	<div id="headerimg">
		<h1><a href="https://www.sternshowclips.com/"></a></h1>
		<div class="description"></div>
	</div>
</div>

    Notice how you have nothing in that Anchor tag? That’s why you have no main link, since anchors are inline and such.

    One trick way to do this is to make the anchor force to block mode and expand it to 100% of the available space. You’d need to add this code to your style that you’ve been futzing with:

    div#headerimg a {
width:100%;
height:100%;
display:block;
}

    This should work. I think. You may need to add an &nbsp; into the anchor. Not sure.
