I am using Kom as Http server (not Apache), and this is the piece of HTML that 
works - I guess it piggibacks the .pr file through squeakland. The only 
important thing is the href:

<a
href="http://www.squeakland.org/project.jsp?http://squeakers.ca:9090/squeak/games/FishTank-link.pr"><img
 alt="&quot;Squeak&quot;saver" title="Make your own &quot;Squeak&quot;saver"
 src="squeak/games/FishTank-link.gif"
 style="border: 5px solid ; width: 250px; height: 175px;"></a>

I suspect it will work on Apache as well, but do not know for sure.

Perhaps you can start with this, just t test your project works etc, and take 
it from there, ask questions , plus more info about the HTTP plugin:

From what I remember, in the life without the plugin in all my browsers, if 
done "correctly" it will redirect user to the site where to find the plugin. 
If you use the simple version on top, it will do it right.

I am sure there is more and people more qualified will comment, hopefully the 
above is a start,
