    I’ve created a custom field where I am adding a URL to an image.  EE is inserting href tags to it automatically in the template and I don’t want anything around it.

    For custom field formatting options, i have tried all 3 options: none, auto
    and xhtml and none of them seem to fix the problem.

    Please help.

    Under “Admin > Weblog Admin > Weblog Management > (your weblog) > Weblog Posting Preferences” there is an option to “Automatically turn URLs and email addresses into links.” Try changing this to “No” and see if that fixes the problem.
