HTML links not working in Firefox?

I'm using basic HTML and CSS documents to practice web design, and opening the documents in Firefox and IE to view them. On my navigation bar, I added the link to another HTML document which lets me click on it in IE and open the new page (the only real difference is the heading says social media instead of "page heading"). It works in IE and I can go back and forth from my "Social Media" page and my "Home" page. Firefox, on the other hand, isn't even acknowledging that my documents have any links. Neither the "Home" or "social media" links are working even though it's the same .htm and .css files as IE is using.... any ideas?

Hi Kristain, The issue is in Firefox, not IE and Firefox is my default browser because IE doesn't cooperate well with other software I need to use. Is there a way for me to change those settings in FireFox and not IE since Firefox is the problem?

  1. Initial step in fixing the hyperlinks not working issue is to reset the default browser in system. It is always better to make the Internet Explorer as your default browser. To do this, you need to open the Internet Explorer in the system and select ‘Tools’ from the menu. Select the ‘Internet Options’ and in the Internet Options box, select the ‘Programs’ tab. You need to then select the button labeled ‘Make Default’. You need to then click the ‘OK’ button and get the changes saved. The issue can thus be fixed. Yet another solution to fix the no hyperlinks issue is to reset URL file associations. For that, open ‘My Computer’ and in the ‘Tools’ menu, select Folder Options. You can then select the ‘File Types’ tab and it will bring up a long list of Extensions and File Types appears. You need to scroll down to get the URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol. In the Folder Options box, select the ‘Advanced’ button. You can then select the bold open item and in the Edit menu select the ‘Browse’ button. You need to then navigate to the system folder where Internet Explorer is stored and put a space and %1 to the end of the file name.
