Adding button to left column

I know this will probably be something really simple and i apologize ahead of time if it is, but i was given this to add to the left column of the website I have been working on and I am not sure where to put this in which file.

 

<a href="http://www.equipment-buy-lease.com/steele-restaurant-supply/"><img src="http://www.equipment-buy-lease.com/ads/button1.jpg" width="160" height="240" /></a>

 

I know this is a simple link button but on websites i have done before the admin was different than oscommerce and i just dropped it in a block so this is confusing to me.

Can someone please direct me on this.

 

Thank you!

Try /catalog/includes/column_left.php

I have that opened do i just add that to the bottom of the file at the end?

It's probably not quite that simple. You have html code there, and the column_left.php file is a php script. Not exactly incompatible, but you will have to get your html code *outside* of the php code containers. At the same time, you have to pay strict attention to the table structure and get it in the table in such a manner as to appear where you want it to appear in the column.

Im so sorry but that was all way above my head. I just need it to show up on the home page, at the bottom of the left column. So do I need to get someone to convert that or something before placing it in the php file and youre saying there is a specific place there for it to be? I know nothing about html. It was sent to me and asked to put it on the page by the owner so Im lost.lol

Why don't you just throw it in the bottom of the /catalog/includes/column_left.php file on a line AFTER the last ?>

 

Might want to put it in <center></center> containers. It should show at the bottom of the left column, but on every page, not just the first page.

 

See if that will do for you.
