Block Link Button to Profile: Image tag text displays instead of the image

Question: 

Hi,

I'm having an issue with adding a button to the sidebar that links to the user profiles. Instead of the image displaying I get the image source text as a link. The link works correctly, but obviously the image should be displaying. For example, I get:

The first thing I saw was the the img src doesn't include the site base path. That seems significant, but I can't connect the dots!

Any pointers?

Thanks!

1. SOLVED! Missing Drupal 5 notes in book

Submitted by rohandavies on Fri, 03/27/2009 - 18:08.

Got to the bottom of this one.

The problem is that the drupal function to create a link ( l() ) has changed it's input requirements from version to version. The Drupal 5 version, which I am using (and probably should have noted in my original question), has different syntax requirements to 6. See this link for the requirements and solution:

http://api.drupal.org/api/function/l/5

I ended up putting four NULL's into my function call and changing the array('html'=> true) to $html=TRUE. Now works a treat!

Perhaps a note is needed in the book, Dorien, to help future users?
