I'm working on an eFlyer JPEG inserted into table for multiple Hotspot links. All the links are working fine except for one, which when click to external sites, error message "Refuse to Connect" prompted. 

 

But if it's a texts hyperlink from email, it works fine. Anyone can solve ths problem for me?

Can we see the code for the non-working link?

 

En passant, if this is a website that you are working on, how are you going to make the hotspots work for different sized screens?

Where is this error message appearing, in the browser? Is that all it says 'Refuse to Connect'.

 

If it works when you use an anchor tag then it should work as an img hotspot, a link is a link.

 

Presumably you have tried to connect a few times and its not just a case of the server being down at the particular time you tried to connect using the hotspot.

 

If the problem persists then could you post the eflyer code in the forum and somebody will take a look.

Your problem is unclear as stated.  When you click the link from where -- inside Dreamweaver, your browser, your email client?  Please be more specific and show us your code.
