French term or phrase: ENCADRE LIEN PHOTO confusion
Please help me out with this confusing sequence - the text I'm translating is interspersed with numerous boxes, many of them with the title "ENCADRE LIEN AVEC PHOTO" and many others with the title "ENCADRE AVEC LIEN PHOTO", and still others with "ENCADRE LIEN PHOTO" (without the "AVEC"). In all cases the title is followed by 1-3 paragraphs of text.
I'd love to clear up the confusion but no matter how much I go over it I'm getting nowhere: I don't know if what I'm translating is supposed to go online in some website or printed, so I don't know if they're talking about a box with links and photos, a link box (?) with photos, a picture inside a box that's also a link (clickable)... Any suggestions (other than writing a translator's note)?
Aaaaagh!!!!

TIA,

Martin

Explanation:
I understand that there is a framed something (usually a number) which links to a photo.

EX : #15000# (un seul lien par message)"

  -> exactement :)

agree  TesCor -: I agree with your translation, but I can't help wondering if all the encadres are simply notes to themselves.

agree  Charlie Bavington: or "photo link box". Don't think the 'avec' makes much difference here
