I have to insert a GIF animated banner on an sale advertisement. The animation is situated in a server abroad, where my homepage is. What kind of HTML code do I have to write to send for that advertisement. Please write a detailed example. The name of animation is "bansku.gif". It is maybe a GIF89 animation.
I'd be much obliged, if anybody or even more answeres.
***Happy New Year 2005 to everybody!***

I am not a "professional web designer" but this should get you started:

It may not be the best way, but it works.

Code:

<a href="http://example.net/place_you_want_victim_to_go.html">
          <img border="0"
          src="http://example.net/image.gif"
          alt="Evil advertisement">
</a>

P.S. Please do not cross-post. Thanks. :)

Thank you psi42 and zylstra! I have the idea, that the banner should be seen directly on the advertisement page. If I only write <IMG SRC="http://www.something.net/index/image.gif"> , I get this kind of result:
On the page I see only text : "Image" and if I press right button of the mouse and select "open image" the right animation starts perfectly. Then if I return to the advertisement page, the animation works there right.
This all does not start automatically, but every time I have to repeat it again. What should I do? If I follow the advice of psi42, I get to the right page and I can start the animation there, but this was not quite what I meant.
