    Links Dont Work in IE but will in other Browers. Please Help

    Hi

    I have been really busy setting up a IFE (In-Flight Entertainment system) for me and a few freinds New Virtual Airline and im having trouble with the links.

    I Have completed the links in one section of the IFE site area, but heres the thing. It works fantastic in All web browers accpet IE (Internet Explorer).

    The link for the IFE: http://www.1air.pcriot.com/Sky_Screen/
    (The only ones that i have link up is The In-Flight Entertainment Section.)( the others im still wokring on.)

    Any ideas?

    Where did you pick up the "trick" of using divs inside of anchors?
    Did it claim to work on all browsers?
    Nothing is always absolutely so.

    I friend showed me how to do it a year ago, And it worked on all browers. But for some reason its not working for me this time. He has also had a look and he is also puzzled.

    Here's the trick:
    DO NOT use div's inside <a> tags. The only thing that goes inside <a> tags is plain text and ocasionally <img /> tags.

    I would advice the following code:
    HTML Code:
    <a href="IFE/ife.html" id="button2"></a>
    Then it should work (if not, put &nbsp; inside the <a> tags.)

    Regards

    As mentioned above, div's (block element) are not supposed to go inside of a's (inline element)
    And why do you try to include a js file (stmenu.js) that is does not exist?
