[OS X TeX] hyperref

[Nitecki, Zbigniew H.]

That’s my problem.  I tried a small example, and everything worked fine.  But I have no idea where to look in the structure of my larger document
to catch the problem.  I don’t expect anyone else to look atmy whole document (in progress, but so far 18 pages of pdf when pictures are commented out, but also uses a lot of privately defined macros), but I was hoping for some suggestions as to what kind of error to look for.
Most of my private macros simply define frequently used sets of symbols or phrases, for consistency.
I have one macro I have that uses the reference utilities (\ref, \pageref, \eqref) to format references;  I checked it in my small example and it seems to present no problems.  Other than that, I don’t know where to look.

I have tried to insert hyperreferences into a \documentclass{article} latex document, with the preamble line
\usepackage[colorlinks, backref]{hyperref}
which had worked on several previous \documentclass{book} documents.

The result is that my back references, and the table of contents, show up in red, but there seems to be no link (that is, clicking on any of this red text in the pdf
fails to take me to the referenced part of the document.

What could I have overlooked?  I doubt that hyperref works only in the book document class.

Howdy,

No problem here using hyperref and toc with the article class. Could you supply a small example where this happens?

Good Luck,
