Experiments with Anchors

Anchors

This page is for experimenting with internal anchors, sometimes called bookmarks which allow a URL to specify a target location within the body of a document.

The target location is coded thusly: <a name="target"> and then there can be text or an object before the ending anchor tag </a>

Reference to this target in the same document is coded this way: <a href="#target">To the target</a>

From another document, you'd use the usual formats: <a href="pagename.html#target">To the target</a> or <a href="http://hostname/pagename.html#target">To the target</a>
