Can't make a single link

I have a web page that has about 100 job titles on it. When I select one job
title and then do CTRL-K to link it, the whole page turns highlighted and if
I continue with adding my link, it links everything on the page to the one
link. I have gone over my code with a fine tooth comb but can't figure out
what is causing this. I'm obvioulsy missing something. Can someone direct me
to what to look for. They are all in a table with each title in a seperate
cell. Above this table I can link with no problem, it is when I go within
this table I can't link individual cells. My td. tr and tables all have
matching /td, /tr, /table. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Debra
 
When you use tables/cells, you have select the actual content of each cell and then set the
hyperlink for the selected item.

Yes Thomas, I only select the job description in the first cell. I highlight
it and do CTRL-K. Even though I only have the one cell and contents selected,
the whole page becomes hilighted and becomes one whole link. I can't figure
out why this is occurring.

What happen when you select the text in the cell, then right click and select Hyperlink Properties?

Thomas I get the same thing. I selected just the text in one cell. I right
click and select Hyperlink properties and the whole page turns highlighted.
What am I missing ?

Is it Included Content?

Ok, can you put this page on the web and provide a link to it?

Thomas and Rob,
I wished I could. It is a web page on my intranet and I work for a law
enforcement agency so I can't post web page because of security reasons. I
wish I could because I'm sure you both could pick out my problem in no time.
I worked on it all last night at home. I might just restore the original
page before I updated with all the new job descriptions. I know it worked at
that time.
But any other suggestions would be great.
Debra
 
Are you using Included Content (Included Page) or Shared Borders?

If so you have to go to the page that is being included to be able to
edit/create the hyperlink there, otherwise if you select the page/area it is
included IN, that whole area kinda turns like a black selected area which
you can't edit. Try double clicking on that area...does it open an Included
page box telling you where the included page address is? If so go to that
actual page to edit the hyperlink.
