I'd like to know how to do something like this also, however i was thinking you would have to have the VT server software somehow or is that not the way to do it?

well. you have to know the address to the server and things of that nature to make a link for it.

is it " i really don't know.
i'll google how to make a ventrilo link. maybe i'll find something.

The syntax is:
ventrilo://[ServerURL]:[Port]/Servername=[NameOfServer]

Where things that are both bracketed and italicized are to be replaced with corresponding information. [ServerURL] would thus be replaced by the actual URL/IP address to the Ventrilo server in question.
In order to embed a link that would automatically connect to a server and also add the server's name/details to the Ventrilo client, one would then include this information in an anchor tag. For example:
<a href="ventrilo://zonebbs.com:3784/Servername=Zonebbs</a>
