Internal link not working.Everything looks fine.
I double checked and triplechecked the adress on both ends but still get a 404.

Any ideas?

Try validating the HTML.

It must be some sort of typo.

Do your other internal links work?

Assuming they do, make sure the page pointed to by the link is accessible, you haven't forgotten to upload it have you?

Check the format of the link against your other links, it is the same is it?

Beware of case sensitivity if your server is Linux and your local development machine is Windows. Many FTP packages will change the case of file names when they are sent to the server.

My other internal links work.
In fact i copied and pasted an existing working link and just changed his destination.
I did not forget to upload the file.This is spooky.

Hey,thanks for the immediate response!

Thanks everyone for all the tips.
The link now works.I don't really know what i did to fix it since i changed so many things.
But who cares...I am happy until the next time it happens.
Life is short.
