    Does anyone know how this company created this ad? It looks like an image, but has a links and a clickable e-mail. Whenever I tried to put a link in a craigslist ad, it didn't work.

    Can you highlight the text? It might include some sort of workaround to allow an imagemap.

    A blackhat method for Craigslist is to use images to display content otherwise not allowed. Could be how it was done.

    You can write most HTML in craigslist. They do not stop you,
    What does stop you are the people who decide to flag your ad. In some areas the "Flagging Police" are far more active than in others.

    You can find a bunch of tips on how to get your ad to stay on Craigslist here http://www.squidoo.com/craigslisttips

    He is correct. CL is kind of weird when it comes to HTML - some they allow, some they do not.
    I suspect it could have to do w/ the IP address you are using to post with; how many posts, flags, etc...

    I post about 20 ADs a day - all of which contain a clickable HTML link as well as a clickable image that goes to my desired URL. I use nothing more than the standard HTML codes to achieve this.
