Stopping image linking to detailed view

[DaveBockett]

I have created a web app to manage a large number of adverts on a clients site. I have a simple app with a few fields that include an image and the url to go to when the user clicks on the image.

The idea was to use the list view to have something like this:  <a href="{tag_url">{tag_image}</a>

..but BC seems to overwrite this and links to the detailed view instead.

How do I get around this?

After thinking about it more I guess I need to make the "image" field a text field and not a image type and do <a href="http://{tag_url}"><img alt="" src="{tag_img2}" /></a></p>

You do not need to do that Dave

Custom image field has two options to the tag

{tag_yourimage_nolink} will stop the link rendering and {tag_yourimage_value} will render the url of the value so you can use that to wrap in your own image attribute.
