[WSG] Link issue

2009-02-06 Thread Kristine Cummins
Hi all:

I'm having a strange link issue where three links in the content area are
not linking and the code is valid. Each link is assigned with a class.
Either I'm having a brain fart, or something strange is going on. It's
probably a brain fart at this point. Any help appreciated.

It's something in your CSS. If you disable the CSS the links work  
fine. Not sure what code is causing it, but I'll try to look further.

Mmm.. something strange happening with line spacing, cursor positioning or
something in this column.

If you try and block (as in block and paste) a piece of text you
actually have to move the cursor along the line above. Weird???

This could mean that you can never actually position the cursor over the
link to activate it.

Another clue...  If you position the text cursor (as opposed to the mouse
cursor) on the text just before a link... then use the right-arrow key to
move this cursor over the link... then the link works as it should.

Hi,

Make the following changes:

p {
background-color: inherit;
color: #f9f5ec;
display: inline; /* Remove this */
font: normal .9em/1.8em century gothic, arial, verdana;
overflow: hidden;
padding-top: 33px; /* Remove this / tweak */
}

or alternatively you could just do:

a.type1:link {
color:#F9F5EC;
margin:0;
padding:0;
position:relative; /* Add This */
text-decoration:underline;
}

However, the latter is a fix and the former is how it should be done.

Works in FF3/Win.
