Creating link on rollover has no effect

Hi everyone!

FW 5.5

I created a rollover button in the most traditional way, ie 2 overlapping graphical items of the same dimensions but having different contents and colours. The rollover works graphically, but creating a link to some internal page is ignored by the browser preview, although FW seems to be happy with it, and tells the link is there. I tried creating the link to the top or bottom item button with the same frustrating result.

Any idea of what I do wrong? Is the rollover code somehow preventing the following of the browser to the link?

Best regards!

I forgot to say that there is an extra action attached to this button: a carousel tab. Both carousel and rollover are working fine, but the link is not. Does that help?

Carousel Tab rewrites the link entirely, changing its href to an
anchor pointing at the desired pane of the carousel. That’s how it
causes the effect to fire, and also provides a backup for the people
who have disabled JavaScript in their browsers. Since you can’t have
two URLs attached to the same a tag, there’s no way to have this work
the way you describe.
