FP98: Bookmark Hyperlink Doesn't Work When Added to Hover Button

ID: Q185481

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows

SYMPTOMS

If you create a hover button that links to a bookmark, the browser does not go to the bookmark when you click the hover button.

CAUSE

The Java virtual machines of earlier browsers, such as Internet Explorer 3.0, removed the pound symbol (#) from the hyperlink generated by the hover button.

This feature works correctly in both Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 and Netscape Navigator 4.0.

RESOLUTION

Make sure the client is using Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or Netscape Navigator 4.0.
