hyperlink not working

    Hi!

    I need help, please.

    I'm creating a site using a WYSIWYG page editor. My hyperlinks aren't working. What I have done is type text, highlight them, clicked on Insert/Edit Link button, and went to preview mode.

    Indeed, the hyperlink looked okay. However, when I clicked on it, nothing happened. And when I hover my cursor over the hyperlink, instead of seeing the URL on the lower left portion of my browser window, what I see is javascript:void(0);/*1219899999*/.

    Why is this happening? I have tried asking assistance from the editor's support but they're not responding. That's why I'm taking my chance here, hoping somebody would be generous enough to lend me some advice.

    Even if this could be a problem pertaining to the page editor itself, I'm hoping some generic way can be done to remedy the situation.

    Thanks ahead for your response! :)

    Hi,

    Which editor are you using? - It looks like they're using JavaScript to open links for you on the page.

    If you can edit the source manually, try the following code:

    
<a href="your_target_page"> Your Text Here </a>
    Code (markup):
    Regards,

    Steve

    Hey there, Steve136!

    Thanks for your response.

    However, I'm a newbie about these things. How will I know if I can or cannot edit the page? Where should I go in order to be able to edit it?

    Hope you'll bear with my ignorance. :(
