Hyperlinks do not work on IE

[FaMe007]

I posted a question on another thread and was recommended i come here. Thanks
for any help in advanced.

Hello,

I have Window Vista Home Premium. I created a website and uploaded it using
Frontpage. Everything was working fine as I was checking the website on
Firefox. However someone using IE told me that the web site was not working.
So i opened up IE and sure enough, the links on the website did not work. I
also tested the website on Apple's Safari and the website works perfectly.
It's just IE that does not open the links. This is a major issue as the vast
majority of the population uses IE and so our website will lose traffic to
valuable IE users.

Any ideas or help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

By hyperlinks, I assume you mean the buttons on the left side as the actual
text hyperlinks work on IE7 and IE8 and Firefox without any problem.

The reason they are not working is that the buttons are set as links
outside. In Code view, the A tag cannot be used with buttons to make them
clickable.

Replace the button with just text and it should work.

If you prefer a button rather than a text, you can replace the button with a
image. Otherwise, FrontPage may have the feature to add such a button via
its GUI which we are not familiar with.

You are using input buttons and they need an onclick event to work in IE like this example for your products
link:


<p><input value="Products" style="color: #ffffff; background-color: #cc0000" type="button"
onclick="document.location='products.htm'"/></p>

Note both the single ' and double " quotes in the onclick code.
