Hi Xochitl,

ChartDirector charts are images. The <A> tag is only used in HTML, not in images. For
example, if you create an image using Windows Paint and put some text in the image, you
cannot use <A> tag to put the link in the image. For images, instead of embedding the <A>
tag in the image (which is not possible), you would need to use an external image map
comprises of <AREA> tags.

There is an example called "Custom Clickable Objects" in ChartDirector that demonstrates
how to make the title clickable. May be you can use it as a reference. See:

http://www.advsofteng.com/doc/cdperl.htm#customclickable.htm

Basically, the above example includes code to create an <AREA> tag for the title and insert
the <AREA> tag into the image map.

Hope this can help.

Regards
Peter Kwan
