I 've searched a lot on S.O. but I could not find any answer that works 100%. My problem is that I have a card component in a NextJs application that is wrapped around a <Link> tag. I also have one more <Link> tag inside, 2 external links (<a> tags) and a button. But none of these work. I have tried putting position: relative to the buttons and anchor tags but it partialy solved the problem (I can navigate to the link ONLY if I use the middle click of my mouse, which opens the link to a new tab). I want to make it work such that any clicks will be registered.

Card Component

<Link href={`/${song.singer}/${song.title}`} passHref>
        <div className={style.cardOutter}>
            <div className={style.cardHeader} style={{ backgroundImage: `url(${sdDefault(song.thumbnail)})` }}></div>
            <div className={style.cardBody}>
                <p>{song.title}</p>
                {song.fts !== '' ? 
                    <div className={style.card_fts}>
                        <span>{song.fts}</span>    
                    </div>
                :
                    null
                }
                <div className={style.cardInfoCont}>
                    <small>[{song.lang}] {song.album} - {song.genre}</small>
                </div>
            </div>
            <div className={style.cardButtons}>
                <a href={`https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=${song.thumbnail}`} target='_blank' rel='noreferrer' title='Listen On YouTube'><YouTubSimpleIcon color='#ff0000' width={30} height={30} /></a>
                <button disabled={!authContext.isAuth} title='Add To Favouarites'><HeartIcon color='#ff0000' width={30} height={30} /></button>
                <a href={`https://open.spotify.com/${song.spotifyURL === undefined ? '' : song.spotifyURL}`} target='_blank' rel='noreferrer' title='Listen On Spotify'><SpotifySimpleIcon color='#1db954' width={30} height={30} /></a>
            </div>
            <div className={style.cardLyricsBtn}>
                <Link href={`/${song.singer}`} passHref>
                    <button>   
                        Check The Artist!
                    </button>
                </Link>
            </div>
        </div>
    </Link>

CodePudding user response：

This issue is not really related to Next.js. You'd have the same issues with normal anchor tags because nesting links produces invalid HTML, though there are some workarounds like putting the nested link into an object tag.

Other than that, you could try the following approaches:

1. Handle either the container link or the nested links via an onClick handler instead of an anchor tag.
2. Don't nest your links in the HTML tree but instead make them siblings and align them using only CSS. You could use a div container and position all of your links with position: absolute inside that div.

In any case you will probably also need to look at event bubbling and add an onClick={e => e.stopPropagation()} where necessary.
