Ok, I might be flat-out blind, but on the coop ad network page, I can create text-based banner ads, but how do I create simple text link ads?
Second Q, on my site, can I decide if I only want to display text links or banners and how do I do this?
Sorry if these are ignorant questions, but I simply cannot find the answers.
Thanks in advance,
d.

The text based ads are generated from the banner ads.
For the type of ad to display, you can select it on the setup instructions page.

I thought that was just for the example ad. Sorry.
Now for another question, I would like to use an acute i in my text in the ads the html entity would be í I obviously cannot enter html in the ad text, and when I type an í it gets displayed as a capital A with a tilde. Is it possible to use the í in my text?

Copy/paste it like normal... for example: í The system has full unicode support (you can use Chinese or Arabic characters if you want).

Right that is what I tried. I tried inserting an í from the windows char map and I also tried changing the kb input lang, (should do the same thing anyway). It shows up fine in the textarea but after submitting it, the html for the ad shows this instead of the í :
Ã
In the ad preview side it shows:
Ã
Any ideas what's happening to the unicode support?

Okay, go ahead and try it now. It seems there was a PHP function that was mucking with unicode incorrectly.
