Can you post the code that isn't working or a link to a website with that code?

Did you check for other elements covering that link?


Hi cor-el,

I cannot place the link as the application can be accessed only in local-intranet. Please check the code for an image in my application

<td class="epnyFWListImageButtonCell" epnytype="tableCell" id="$2bdpj3_cell_4_0"> <input type="image" eoc="this.setRowClicked(4);gEWM.getWI('Ie8phwu').setValue('0@organization@8CB3C67CBFBFB5B600C4A23A0F407359');gEWM.getWI('Itmsbgu').setValue('view_detail');gEpnyStagingFrameManager.userRequest('A|FFAF36EF2D0C4E5B86CFF62E7342916D:0~0~2|0|DABD2F1833474A15B55CB0AC2706C542|0|','SlotId','FFAF36EF2D0C4E5B86CFF62E7342916D:0~0~2','NavigationType','INTERACTION','StateHandling','Confirm All','FormNumber','0');" onclick="eCCL(this,event,gEWM.getWI('$2bdpj3'))" class="epnyFWListImageButton" accesskey="" title="Click here to view detail information" alt="Click here to view detail information" onkeydown="eCKDL(this,event,gEWM.getWI('$2bdpj3'))" onfocus="eCF(this,event)" tabindex="1" id="$2bdpj3_cell_4_0_Img" src="images/icon_detail.gif"></td>

I don't think that you can use a title attribute for in image in an input element.
It is mentioned nowhere.
