Links in Header.php aren't clickable

    I am trying to place typical HTML anchor links, to external websites, in the header.php just below the header banner image. The header page is part of a theme.

    Here is what the link looks like in the source code:
    <a href="http://google.com" >google</a>
    That same code works fine by itself in an HTML file.

    But in the rendered page, even though that link renders in a “link” color for the theme, there is NO response when clicked. I also noticed that the text in that same area of the header cannot be selected with the cursor.

    I am new to WP. But I have been coding for 25 years in many languages.
    Is this behavior to be expected in the Header of a WP home page?

    Is there a setting I am unaware of?
    Thanks

    What theme are you using? Where did you download it from?

    I’m sorry but as you appear to be using a commercial theme, you need to seek support from the theme’s developer/vendor. We do not have access to, nor do we support, commercial products here.

    Wow. I just brought the site up on my phone and the links work fine there. But not on my desktop. Strange. Well sorry about the false alarm…maybe.
