Internal A Href link not working on website while external links using same class work without an issue

Question

I have an internal link that does not appear to work.

I have two external linked directly above it with the same code simply with the url changed to reflect the correct location in my file structure:

<h5 align="left"><a class='btn btn-link' href="https://www.ruok.org.au">R U OK Day</a></h5>

    <h5 align="left"><a class='btn btn-link' href="./otherpages/learningdevelopment.html">Learning and Development Portal</a></h5>

The second link when hovering over it reflect the correct file path (I have 1 folder within the group called "Other Pages" and there is only only other .html in that folder being "learningdevelopment"), however when I click on the link... nothing happens.

The external link above works perfectly fine, they are the same class etc so I cannot see a CSS issue being the problem, to be safe however, I deleted all the CSS and simply used HTML and same problem occurred.

I have tried moving the file to top level directory rather then my other pages file, same issue clicking does nothing (even without CSS).

Any help would be appreciated.

Yep, link still does not click, if it were simply a mislabelled href it should still click and take me to a page not found or something, but it doesn't even click! — Realitybites, Sep 11 '19 at 06:53
have you tried to change the link of the 2nd `` to the first? I mean replace the link and put the first link.+ — MONSTEEEER, Sep 11 '19 at 07:01
Yep, all external links work fine, the second I point it internally, even with file:/// the link behaviour changes and no longer clicks. Quite frustrating. — Realitybites, Sep 11 '19 at 07:04
Still doesn't work. I wonder if its an issue with visual studio code build. I'll develop the website soon onto my apache and see if I still have the issue. — Realitybites, Sep 16 '19 at 00:21
