   I am using the following:
   

   <a href="<?php get_category_link(1); ?>">
   					<img src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/img/nav_Editorial.gif" border="0" alt="" />
   				</a>

   and so on.

   But the HTML which is generated returns this:
   <a href=""> ...

   Why does the function return nothing? The category IDs are correct.

   instead of using that, why don't you try this:

   /wordpress/category/yourcategoryname/

   make sure the file path is correct.
   This works for me.

   sorry i should be more specific:

   <a href="/wordpress/category/yourcategoryname/">
   					<img src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/img/nav_Editorial.gif" border="0" alt="" />
   				</a>

   put an echo in front of it,
   

   <a href="<?php echo get_category_link(1); ?>">
   					<img src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/img/nav_Editorial.gif" border="0" alt="" />
   				</a>

   hope it helps you.
