HTML - Linking To Destination Anchors?
I am trying to link to a specific part of a page, the instructions tell me to:
Quote: add # along with the destination anchor id to your href This is my href: Quote: Read the <a href="http://buzz.headlabsfirst.com title="Read all about caffeine on the buzz">Caffeine buzz</a> I have added in bold below <a id="#coffee"</a> so my mark up looks like Quote: Read the <a href="http://buzz.headlabsfirst.com <a id="#coffee"</a> title="Read all about caffeine on the buzz">Caffeine buzz</a> but it does not take me directly to the coffee section, what am I doing wrong please? Similar TutorialsHello I am having trouble understanding destination anchors(xhtml transitional) First you do this right: <a name="pagetop"></a> then you do this <a href="#pagetop"> Page top </a> what I dont understand is how you mark the place in the site where you are suppose to jump to. Hey guys! It's been awhile, but life has been busy and doing new things with web pages hasn't been on the top of my list. However, I've run into a small issue which will hopefully be easy to solve. I've been doing some scripting for a program which exports and imports scripts in an XML setup. I've been posting those scripts on another site, and, for now, have been instructing users to simple right+click save as... the scripts in order to get them, because, when they click on the link, it tries to bring them to a page of the XML. Is there any way for me to tell the links to simply download the XML file (effectively like right+click save as... except it will go to wherever they download stuff) if it is clicked? Disregard this post I'm trying to add an anchor to my blog, but without having any link to it in the page itself. I just want to be able to have a specific address for the part of the page that I want to jump to, so that I can cite that address in other places. Is there any way to do this? I tried inserting this in a random part of my page: <a href="#name"></a> And then this immediately above where I want the anchor to be: <A NAME="name"></A> But...going to mywebsite.com#name did not take me to the anchor, it just opened the page like normal. Ideas? I would like to use anchors to move down a long scrolling section of my page. The idea is like freezing the top of a spread-sheet. The top section is fixed and has a solid background and a high z-index. The bottom is similar to the top section. The middle shows the low z-index section and allows it to scroll. Since the top is currently set to a height of 200px, I need to have my anchors offset by 200px. I have this line of code showing in the top section: <a href="#line1">group 1</a>, <a href="#line2">group 2</a>, <a href="#line3">group 3</a>, <a href="#line4">group 4</a> Down in the code for the middle section I have code that looks like this: <a name="line1" id="line1">Group 1</a> repeated for four groups of text. The problem is that an anchor moves to the top of the browser window which is 200px above the area that is visible. Here are two links http://www.roberson-family.com/testing/scroll_test.html this is showing the problem. http://www.roberson-family.com/testi...ll_test_1.html and this is showing the cause of the problem. You can see that the underlying text aligns to the top of the browser. Surely there is a method to do this, but thus far, Google has failed me, and I find nothing like this here. Hi all, just a tiny little problem here. I've got an index page with roll-over thumbnail jpg pics. I want to link them to another page at the relevant place on the page. Currently I can manage a link to the page (storyboards.html), but I can't get the link to go down the page to the relevant section. (storyboard section2). Help appreciated. It's seems I've come across a problem. When the page loads, I want it to go to the anchor. Do I have to use the "onload" Java command? Arrrg, - Miles trying to accomplish creating a drop down menu for the anchors of a page. any help or code would be greatly appreciated. any further details needed please dont be shy Example Drop Down-> Products Description->to anchored section. For multiple anchors. Thanks for your time. I have a page with an i-frame and I know how to open links into i-frames. I also have a anchor at the top of the page and I know how to link to anchors. Is there a way to do both at the same time? The i-frame is at the top of the page. I would like to be able to click a link at the very bottom of the page and be moved to the top *and* have that link opened up in the i-frame. Is there an easy way to do this? Thx. Hello All, You guys are probably sick of this topic but I'm really stuck. I want the frame page (using horizontal frames) to open my content page part way down an existing HTML document. No Links, just want to open part way down my content page. Here's my Frameset page: <html><head><title>Table</title></head> <FRAMESET Rows="148,100%"> <frame noresize src="table_hdr.html"> <frame src="green.html#greentop" NAME="content"> </FRAMESET> </html> I tried putting the standard anchor tag in my content page, as so: <A name="greentop"> at the location I want the content page to open but no Joy.

My problem is I placed an anchor by the text, underneath the image, so when a certain link is clicked it skips the image and goes right to the text where the anchor is....but when I click on a link to refer to that anchor, it loads to where the anchor is before the image size (width and height) loads. Then, the image loads, and expands th epage, and the image is on screen instead of the text I anchored to. Is there any easy way to make it so the anchor waits for the image to load before going to where it is....or so the image preloads the size and expands to that width and height before bothering to load the entire image so the anchor will be positioned right....or anything along those lines? To clarify, it looks like this: <p><img src="image location" /></p> Text: <a name="reviews" id="reviews"></a> and then the link : <a href="site.php?cnt=<? echo($cnt); ?>&pg=<? echo($pg - 5); ?>#theanchor"> Prev 5 </a> and the anchor position loads before the image loads, so instead of skipping the picture and displaying the text, it just displays only the bottom 90% of the image or so. Any ideas would be welcomed , --Tony I'm designing a site and have a bunch of targets on one page. I had come across this site (http://www.welcomebrand.co.uk) and while back and liked how when the top links are clicked, instead of shooting straight down to the corresponding content, it was a quick, but smooth scroll. I looked in the code of the site, but couldn't eye out what it was. Any hints? I don't have the ability to add an anchor to the page, it's not mine, but I'd like to link to a specific area on the page. Is that possible without that page having some sort of anchor already on it? hello i am wondering if it's possible to load content into a div by clicking a link in div 1 and changing what is shown in div 2 and clicking a link in div 3 would change what is shown in div 4 i have attached a generic png of how i would want the page to look....and to give a better idea of what i am wanting...any idea's as to how to do this would be appreciated...but be prepared depending on your suggestion i may need some help with how to get it accomplished. Below are two notepad docs. I want to add a link from one to the other. Whenever I add the <a href="..... "></a> nothing shows up when I view the webpage. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Now however when my teacher tries to open my files, all she gets is that file that cant be found stuff. Do you think maybe the problem could be that my files are too complicated and that maybe i should put all my pages in one place and then all my other files in folders underneath those... please tell me your advice, with many thx Sam Hi, I have a few pages that I would like to link together, these are all on my computer. What is the code to link them together? Thank you, Nick. Hey! Something odd is happening in IE7 with a page & I can't figure it out! (doesn't do it in Firefox). This page: http://webshack.com.au/cane/index.htm loads fine, but when I got to 'Our Facilties' (2nd in the menu), it has no background & other bits 'cause it doesn't link to the stylesheet. But, if you 'Resfresh' the page - it all comes good - until you move to a different page and then return to the 'Our Facilities' page'. So I'm a bit stumped - It obviously links, but I can't figure out why not initialy, only on 'Refresh', and then again every time you return! Oh yeah, it only started doing it when I begin fixing bits after running it the though the WC3 validator . . . .
