Links to page sections

How do you link to different sections of a page? Linking to the top I can manage, but how do you create a specific target on a page to jump to?

RE: Links to page sections

Hi Peter.

You need to create an anchor.

Place your cursor where you want the anchor to appear, then in Dreamweaver choose Insert -> Named anchor. Type the name of your anchor in the dialogue box that appears. eg. section1. A yellow marker should appear in design view.

The code generated like this:
<a name="section1"></a>

Then to link to an anchor (Frontpage calls them bookmarks), you simply link to the name of the anchor, prefixed by a hash. eg. #section1

The code looks like this:
<a href="#section1">Go to section 1</a>

I hope this answers your question. If it does, please mark this question as resolved.

Regards, Rich

This topic is covered in the Linking and Navigation unit on our 1 day Dreamweaver training introduction course.
