Hey guys,

I've got a client I'm dealing with at the moment and he just emailed me saying hi the website isn't clickable so I took a look and nothing is clickable lol, any ideas what has happened?

this is the website:
Flight Simulator Advice - Plane Flight Simulator Game | Fighter Jet Simulator | Flight Pro Sim Review | Flight Simulator Helicopters | Flight Simulator Cockpits | Cessna Flight Simulator

FYI - I'm dealing with the off-page SEO...Haven't actually touched the site on-page yet myself but seems like this has just happened, any ideas again? thanks...

    Don't know what he did, but if you scroll to the bottom and click on the "Older Entries" link it seems to work. On the Older Entries page all the links seem to be working. Perhaps he has a script that is disabling the links? Hope that gives you a start.

    Man, his host is really slow!

    Something in the CSS is causing the issue. If I remove the CSS, the links are clicking fine. This line is defintely invalid:

    #art-main
    {
    position: relative;Flight Simulator Advice - › Log In
    width: 100%;
    left: 0;
    top: 0;
    }

    Here is the another problem:

    .wp-caption {
    background-color: #F3F3F3;
    border: 1px solid #DDD;
    margin: 0px 10px 10px;
    padding: 0px;
    text-align: center;
    .wp-caption img
    {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    border: 0 none;
    }

    The top style is not closed with a }

    Looks like this is the one actually breaking the links:

    .cleared
    {
    float: none;
    clear: both;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    border: none;
    font-size:1px;
    }

    Not sure exactly why, but when i remove it the links are clickable again.

    Sorry I didn't find the cause, it's certainly related to that border graphic that encloses everything on older posts, but only the dead area in this problem page, the link codes are OK there's just a higher layer object blocking both clicks and selects.

    You can confirm the CSS issues I mentioned by installing the web developer toolbar extension for Firefox, then go to the site and select the option for CSS > Edit CSS.

    Then simply remove/fix the style rules I listed. This will not affect the way the CSS is on the server, but will let you test the issue in your browser.
