Advertisers and their clients have cottoned on to the fact that they can get better results and value for money by going online.

The humble banner is still going strong, but it has evolved. These days you can choose from banners, skyscrapers, pop-ups, DHTML, rich-media, overlays, floating, expandable banners, Toast, full-page takeover and various other shapes, sizes and flavours. But which works best, and when?
