Link to place on same page (1 Viewer)

[lourai*87]

I couldn't find this anywhere else...so here goes.

As the title suggests, i'd like to hyperlink headings at the top of my page to sections further down on the same page, if that makes sense. Im using FrontPage - i dont know if i can do it but thought i may as well ask.

Thanks in advance

Put the following tag where you want to link to:

<a name="anchor"></a>

To link to that part of the page:

<a href="#anchor">text</a>

Thank you....just another question tho - can i do this in "normal view" or do i have to type this in the "html" view?

It would probably be better to type it in HTML view - using the "a name" tag doesn't actually appear on the page (it's invisible unless you view the page source).

thankyou...i have been trying this but doesnt seem to work. Say it looks like this:

Agriculture & Fisheries
Food Processing & Manufacture
Food Service & Catering
Food Retail​

Agriculture & Fisheries
(text here)

Food Processing & Manufacture
(text here)

etc

The 4 headings at the top i want to link to the following ones. Which 'tags' to i put where?

Something like this should work:

<center>
<a href="#ag">Agriculture & Fisheries</a><br />
<a href="#fP">Food Processing & Manufacture</a><br />
<a href="#fS">Food Service & Catering</a><br />
<a href="#fR">Food Retail</a><br />
</center>
<br />
<a name="ag"></a>Agriculture & Fisheries<br />
(text here)<br />
<br />
<a name="fP"></a>Food Processing & Manufacture<br />
(text here)<br />
<br />
<a name="fS"></a>Food Service & Catering<br />
(text here)<br />
<br />
<a name="fR"></a>Food Retail<br />
(text here)<br />

You will need to do it in html view.

if you're using programs like Frontpage or Dreamweaver, they're either called Bookmarks or Anchors
