I have created a website in Kompozer. And the buttons will not work in Internet Explorer (Any version) and I have checked the links, made sure it wasn't capitalized, re linked the, and still nothing. It works in Mozilla, Flock, and Google Chrome. I have tried everything, but can't think of why this is.

I personally have had many many problems with IE and cannot stand it, any ideas on how to fix my problem?

Thanks,
Emily B

so what are you wanting the buttons to do? Link to another page?

the easiest way to do this is:
<FORM>
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Link Name" ONCLICK="window.location.href='path_to_file/file.html'"> 
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Home Page" ONCLICK="window.location.href='index.html'"> 
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Contact Us" ONCLICK="window.location.href='contact.html'"> 
</FORM>

Yes I had originally written the HTML but I linked the buttons in Kompozer. I think the html got messed up. I will try that code, thanks :D

just a note, you don't need the <a href="path"> .... </a> around the buttons, this is what's causing some to be underlined and won't work. Also you have put index.html as the path for the home button when it should be index.htm

Otherwise, well done and good luck with the rest of the site. Feel free to come back if you need any more help with anything :thumbsup:
