: Is it good to have HTML tags between anchor tags? The code used is: <a href="%viewurl%?download=%title%"><div class="m"> <table><tr><td width="104px"><img class="thumb"

It's completely OK to have HTML tags inside anchor tags when defining a clickable image in your webpage. The HTML code will be similar to the following:

<a href="http://example.com/path/to/link"><img src="someimage.jpg"></a>


My suggestion is to use only HTML tags that define output text or help define output text such as the IMG tag, and if you want to go old-school, you can even embed text in the FONT tag or even bold text. For example:

<a href="http://example.com/path/to/link"><b>Some text</b></a>

<a href="http://example.com/path/to/link"><font color="red"><b>Bolded red text</b></font></a>


But if you're aiming for SEO, the only tag I'd recommend inside anchor is the image tag (as shown in my first example) because the other two examples I showed are meant for an older version of HTML.
