Text acts like a hyperlink... should not be

[JCO]

www.dfwtejanos.com (Coaches page)

I must have a missing quote or something stupid like that.
I can't find it anywhere. In design mode, it acts like a hyperlink. When
looking at the text (code mode), I can tell it is messed up because of the
different color text.

Maybe a double or single quote missing?
Maybe that <span> junk is messing me up and I should go through and remove
that.

I will be out of town until Monday morning to review your remarks.
Thanks.

Your 'back to top' link just under Dave Marshall is coded incorrectly.

If you could be more specific, that would help.

I was just leaving and so your post. I will look at later, thanks for so
quick.
fyi; seems like I can't have words with 's in them (ie player's).

Is there some issue with this too.

 

[Andrew Murray]

that 'back to top' link works fine.....what is the problem? (the one under 'Dave
Marshall' on Coaches page, the link is
http://dfwtejanos.com/Coaches/Coaches.html#top and that's correct as far as I can
see.

Maybe go back to hyperlink properties and 'remove link' then redo the link by
putting in #top in the address field (not the whole url, since it knows to go to
"Top" of Coaches.html, unless you specify another html page like page.html#top.

That link is actually correct (top link following Dave Marshall) but I found some
other incorrect code following the paragraph on Chris Stricker for another 'back
to top' link (probably in the footer of the page) - near the guestbook link and
log in field at the foot of the page. just above the code for a include page for
your footer.htm

extract of the code:

<p align="right">
<font size="2">
<a href="#top">back to top</a></a></font></td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<a href="#topback to top</a></a></font></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div align="center"></a>


This has happened a couple of times, another instance of this error directly
above this one in the html code. A couple of stray closing anchor tags </a> and
no closing bracket after 'top'.

It doesn't show up on the page (because its incorrectly coded); but in the code
it is near the bottom of the page after the section on Chris Stricker. Do a
search in notepad or frontpage in code view on "chris stricker" and then scroll
down from there.

I can't see anything that relates to the actual posted problem......

Andrew:
I did a "View Source" on the page, and copied the HTML into FrontPage -
that's where I saw that the hyperlink was wrong.

I've read everyone's post and I thank you all.
I'm still puzzled. I've gone thru and made some corrections. I've published
them today.

I seem to have a problem when you get to the text write-up for
David Hilliiard. In code view the color of the text is .. some blue and
some red ... when is should be black. I can't find the messed up code that
is causing this. It (FrontPage) acts like it doesn't like the 's in the
code. That is where it changes from color red to blue. Removing the ' will
change the color but this is the wrong action to take. Both colors are
wrong. I can't find the messed up code that ... if corrected will make the
text look black (in code view).

I still need help.

The best option my be to delete and then recreate the section.

I've tried a few time with no luck.
Finally I was able to fix it by coping code from another section.
Still don't know what the problem was... but it has been resolved.

Thanks everyone.
