SYMPTOMS

When you click a hyperlink that links to a bookmark, nothing happens.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs if the case used to reference the bookmark in the hyperlink does not exactly match the case used for the bookmark name. Some browsers, such as Internet Explorer versions 3.x and Netscape Navigator, look for an exact case match. When the case does not match, nothing happens when you click the hyperlink.

RESOLUTION

You can reset the case of the hyperlink by modifying the properties of the hyperlink that does not work. To do this, follow these steps.
  1. Right-click the hyperlink that you want to change, and then click Hyperlink Properties on the menu that appears.
  2. From the Bookmark list, select the bookmark you want to link to and then click OK.
  3. Save the page.
