I am at a loss as to why two of the links on this page are not working. The first is fine and links to the PDF ok. The second two have been linked exactly the same, PDF files have been added to the site and they still will not work. Tearing my hair out wondering what I'm doing wrong :/

Are you certain they're there and named correctly? Also, it's really a bad idea to have spaces in names for web addresses.

Hi Debbie Webber,
I would just suggest highlighting the text again and choosing the "link to documents" option in the link properties make sure the correct radio buttons are selected as VSD sometimes takes on a mind of it's own.

Its as Spinny suggested ..... misnamed files, rather than a problem with the link itself. Have a look in your downloads folder. The pdf docs for Week 1 and Week 7 both start with a capital 'W', while the other weeks start with a lower case w. Your links all start with a capital 'W'. Either rename the files, or adjust the spelling in the links to match the file names and all should be fine.

Hmmm - yes it turned out to be the lower case and capital 'W''s that presented the problems! Amazing what you can miss when you look at something very simple for far too long!! Thanx all!
