Certain link not opening in Internet Explorer 11
You're not getting errors, IE is opening other links, and it works fine in Chrome... First glance, this sounds like an issue with the way that IE cached your website. However, I can't elaborate on further possibilities because you didn't provide us with much information or any code to investigate, so basic troubleshooting is the best answer as of right now. I'll update it again if you provide more information.
Try this:
- Tools(gear/cog)->Internet Options
- Browsing history (general tab)->Delete
- You'll want to check the Temporary Internet Files and website files, Cookies and website data. Uncheck "Preserve Favorites website data." Then click 'Delete' at the bottom.
- Click the 'Security' tab and at the bottom click 'Default level'
Click the 'Privacy' tab and click 'Default'
Test it. If the above doesn't work, you can always click the 'Advanced' tab and click the 'Reset' button. I've seen IE do stranger things, so hopefully it's as simple as this.
As mentioned, you didn't provide us with much to work with. We're all happy to help you out, so if this doesn't work for you, please come back and post us more information/code so we can get this pinpointed. There are many things, code wise, that can cause undesired results, but we can't confirm that without seeing the code.
This has helped me out with various strange "IE bugs." I can't provide you with an explanation, but I'm sure a search could shine further light on this. It's at least worth trying considering how strange this bug is.

I've created a new html page and all other links are opening fine except the one directing to this page. Clicking the link in Internet Explorer simply does nothing, but if I open the file directly it opens it. No problems in Chrome whatsover.
What's happening here?

EDIT I think the issue is with the page itself, what could make IE refuse to open a page?
EDIT2 OK, here's
cariere.html:`Content removed`EDIT3 Problem solved, I did a rollback while saving the changes I made and now everything is navigating correctly. Still, very strange even for IE.
