How to change hyperlink behavior from double-click to single-click

here is my code, i would like my links to open with just a single click. all i开发者_运维百科s functioning properly, its just that, the delete,approve ant not approve link must be double click for its function to run. i hope someone could hear me.

index.php

<?php

                            }

                            //for namelist a-z

*note, i only put the delete/approve/not approve function because thats my only problem. thanks

HTML links do typically not require double clicks, you probably have some other element that is overlapping your link or some script that is interfering.

Please show the complete source for the affected page.

Try looking at your completed markup in a tool like firebug.

Please modify the quote usage in the section as follows.

echo "<td  class='sub' width='100'><a href='index.php?yes=".$file_id."'>Approve</a><br /><br /><a href='index.php?no=".$file_id."'>NotApprove</a></td>";

Please let me know if you need any clarification.

It will be better if you could provide me the code of that link. I am wondering whether you are using Javascript function or just link to go to a new page from update and delete Anchor tag.
