remove the 'a' tags and the <'s

Ignore above - the forum code has tried to turn the code into clickable links. Here it is again:

<?php
//OptionTree Stuff
$category = ot_get_option('category');
$number = ot_get_option('number');
?>

<div id="nivoSlider">

<?php
$showPostsInCategory = new WP_Query(); $showPostsInCategory->query('cat='. $category .'&showposts='. $number .'');
if ($showPostsInCategory->have_posts()) :
while ($showPostsInCategory->have_posts()) : $showPostsInCategory->the_post();
$data = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'key', true ); if ($data[ 'custom_link' ]) { ?>
< a href = "<?php echo $data[ 'custom_link' ]; ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
<?php } else { ?>
" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
<?php }
the_post_thumbnail('nivo'); ?>
< / a >

I can't see which tag you mean. I tried removing everything between < a href="~" > and < / a > but this broke the slider altogether.

Hi, I also want to achieve this but when I look at the existing code:

<?php
//OptionTree Stuff
$category = ot_get_option('category');
$number = ot_get_option('number');
?>

<div id="nivoSlider">

<?php
$showPostsInCategory = new WP_Query(); $showPostsInCategory->query('cat='. $category .'&showposts='. $number .'');
if ($showPostsInCategory->have_posts()) :
while ($showPostsInCategory->have_posts()) : $showPostsInCategory->the_post();
$data = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'key', true ); if ($data[ 'custom_link' ]) { ?>
" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
<?php } else { ?>
" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
<?php }
the_post_thumbnail('nivo'); ?>

<?php endwhile; endif; wp_reset_query();?>
</div>

I can't see which tag you mean. I tried removing everything between and but this broke the slider altogether.

open up the nivoslider.php are remove the a tag that wraps the image

Could someone please tell me how to make the images in the Nivo slider non-clickable? I want to have three or four images in this slider but don't want the user to go anywhere when they click on these. I'm launching the site very soon so any help greatly appreciated.
