Once again I need help! I'm trying to create an invisible link for friends on my home page at the center top within the green box here ( dirctly above the "NOS Energy Criterium") :

or just make a white on white background clickable link.
I've checked through as many relevant posts that I could find and found this one the best suited for my needs:

But all this did not work, the link showed up
GREEN no matter what I tried.:scratch
Is there any way to make it white all the time?
I should mention i've used tables within my bio box to create everything in the green box. I don't know if this has anything to do with it.

Thanks,
Jon

If you can put the thing into your page now so we can see it, we can help you style it appropriately to make it not visible. It really depends upon exactly what and where it is so we need to see the exact thing you want in place. It doesn't have to have the right text in it or the right link in it so you don't have to give away any secrets while it's visible, but it needs to be in the right place and the same HTML you will be using.

Post back when it's there.

OR, the easiest would be to make the upper left corner of your homepage clickable with a transparent image. You would do that by adding this to your custom header:

<div id="invisibleLink"><a href="your link goes here"><img src="http://www.cyclingphotos.ca/img/spacer.gif" height="20" width="20" border="0"></a></div>

And this to your CSS:

#invisibleLink {display:none;} /* hide by default */
.homepage #invisibleLink {display:block;} /* show on homepage */
#invisibleLink {position:absolute; top:0; left:0;} /* position in upper left corner */

Thanks again John; works like a charm - upper left corner, I like that even better.
