Problems getting an external link in Netscape 9

[appi]

Hi,

I have a small Page which works nearly good in both (IE7 and Netscape 9).
But I have one link which goes to an external forum-site. This one only woks in IE7, in Netscape it won't be useable.
I only used a defined link with a

http://www-adress.

What kind of configuration I do need to get the linked line active in Netscape 9 ?
regards
Uwe

You just link in exactly the same way as for any other browser.

What is it exactly you are doing? Perhaps it would help if you showed us the page.

My instinct tells me that you are either using some javascript to activate the link, which is incompatible with NS9 or, you have absolutely positioned something and it's over the top of your link and effectively stopping you clicking on it.

And remember that with the external links you have to include a protocol at first (

http://)

unless the browsers will assume that you're linking to a page on your server.

Hi,

I use the same html code. It is stored on my HP
The site is

http://www.appmeier.de/Scotia/WELCOME.HTM

the link is in the left side for SCO-Forum.
If I open the site with NS9 no address is shown to klick. The link is "empty"
ll other links are internal pages and they're working.

On IE7 it is available and works fine.

Its not a professional site, only for a fun-game. Build up completely with Frontpage.

You have an error in your html:

[!][s]<a [/s][/!]</a href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.iphpbb.com/board/login.php?nxu=37875043nx67519">[/URL]

Get rid of highlighted part and it should work. IE is more forgiving than Netscape.

Oops, didn't see that slash before either.

Thanks
this is cut'n Paste I guess.
But is IE7 so flexible ? I'm very supressed about that *smile* that IE works fine with this error.
I will correct this later this day.
