Hyperlinks aren't working

Following the ASP .Net MVC tutorial, I set up the hyperlinks to the search engines as in the video in VS2013 for Web. The page loads as it is supposed to, but the links aren't enabled. What settings do I need to get this to work?

It worked fine for me. Make sure you put the website name within the anchor tags, like this:

<li><a href="http://www.google.com">Google</a></li>

It's important that you put the name of the link before the closing anchor tag, or else you won't have anything to click on to use the hyperlink. I hope that helps.

Silly me, I didn't put the text in in between the anchor. Fixed it. Thanks though
