I can not view the picture the address is not valid.

I use a hotmelt Glue gun with great results.

A tube of Silicone Calk works great as well.

You need to replace the surround... which can be difficult in small woofers like that, especially if you've never done it before. Try www.speakerbits.com. Depending on what it is, it looks to me like you'd be better off replacing it.

Yep a little silicone will fix it right up.

Put some on the inside and smoothe it out and she will be as good as new.
