There's something in your CSS which is doing that to your anchors.
The problem is with the way you've made the anchors, you've done this:

Code:

<a name="order"><strong><u>How do I order?</u></strong></a>

When you should have done this:

Code:

<a id="order"></a><strong><u>How do I order?</u></strong>

Notice the closing </a> tag is now next to the title, not surrounding it so the title will no longer be a link itself.
Using id="blah" is optional, but it helps with standards compliance.

BTW - You shouldn't mix and match CSS with legacy HTML.
Instead of having <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" link="#FF0000" vlink="#000000"
alink="#FF0000"> I'd have this in your CSS:
body { background: #fff }
The links are covered already in the stylesheet so you would just have <body> with no parameters.
