Usage of Anchor Points and Alphabetical Order

I am trying to set up a page with a alphabet header where each letter would take the user directly to the section of the letter selected. I was wtrying to create anchor points to do so as all the info is on the same page.

When trying to insert an anchor in a table, I am not allowed to create it. Can you confirm that is not the way to go about it ?

Thanks
Raph

RE: Usage of Anchor Points and Alphabetical Order

Raphael,

I would say that is the correct way to do it.

Why are you not allowed to create it? Are you getting an error message?

Try inserting into the code like this:
<a name="b"></a>

Then linking to it by code too, like this:
<a href="#b">Go to B</a>

See if that works.

I'm not sure why Dreamweaver wouldn't allow you to insert an anchor, unless it's a template or library item issue. Do you use either of these?

Please reply with any Dreamweaver errors you are getting so I can assist you further.

Kind regards, Rich

Dreamweaver tip:

Xhtml vs html

When using dreamwear template or just creating a blank webpage, you are able to select the markup language you want to use. The main choices are either xhtml or html. It is now best to select xhtml as this will translate all the html into xml, so it is transmitted across the web in xml format. One of the main advantages of this is that it makes the site that you build much more compatible with the range of different web browsers that exist.
