I am attempting to access a company's employment page. I
am able to access the company's home page but when I
attempt to access the employment page - nothing appears.
The information at the bottom of the screen says done but
the screen is blank.

I have checked my security options. Any suggestions.
 
Try to hold down the control key while clicking on the
link. I am having similar problems with certain links.

Check your assumptions. Is it really blank? Use View Source.

From my reply to Kris who had the same symptom:

<excerpt>
FWIW I can reproduce Kris (OP) symptoms for at least one of the
cited links by disabling Allow META Refresh (in Security tab)

Use View Source on your "blank" page and see if you have some code
which looks something like this:

<example>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=http://www.symantec.com/purchase/">
</example>

If so, you don't have to change your Security options.
If you prefer you can just stay aware of this fact and realize
that anytime a site uses this method of redirection that you will have
emulate it manually by (e.g.) using View Source on "blank" pages,
then copy and pasting the URL= parameter to your Address bar and
finally requesting that page explicitly by clicking on the Go button (etc.)
