[SOLVED] How can I make this title link work

I made the below link work once before but I'm not sure how I did it and now I can't get it to work again. It links to a page that contains a form. When it worked, it opened on a new page and looked great. I have no idea what I did to make it quit working but now all I get is a blank page. I also have this page in a menu as hidden. I've tried using the page link as the Href as below and I've also tried using the Alias but neither work:

<h4><span style="color: #b8890c;"><strong><a style="color: #b8890c;" target="_parent" href="index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=148">Request an Appearance</a></strong></span></h4>
<p>Request an appearance by Miss Iowa and/or Miss Iowa's Outstanding Teen.</p>

Please let me know what I'm doing wrong. Thx!

Hello,
please make sure that your system output is not disabled.
Template Options > settings > layouts > System output

That worked like a charm. Thanks!
