Apologies in advance for the length of the message.

I am having a strange problem -- for some reason when I try to add a third hyperlink (either default or pseudo-class) in my text, it will follow the color rules, but won't create an actual hyperlink.

Only the first two listed will work! In addition to the default a.link and a.visited I have three pseudo classes defined: "corp", "mktg" and "brand". The default and each pseudo-class work fine individually, as long as they are placed as one of the first two hyperlinks. Any links after the first two don't create a hyperlink, even in its most simple form.

Here is the section of code that is causing problems. As you can see, the third link (bolded so you can see it easily) is coded exactly the same as the first two, but doesn't create a hyperlink (unless I move it above the others, in which case whichever is the third one doesn't link.)

PLEASE help if you can; I am a relative newbie, but had been progressing pretty well until this confusion!

Thanks to all in advance!
