    How do I create a link that when clicked will scroll down to a specific part of the same page? For example the link is at the top of the page and I want it to point to an item half way down the same page.

    Thx

    Enclose the item that you want to point to between the "a name tag":

    <a name="item">blah blah blah</a>
    Code (markup):
    replace blah blah blah with the actual item...

    Then link to this section of the page using this:

    <a href="#item">link text</a>
    Code (markup):

    You'll probably be shocked that my 570 posts did come from criticizing other people's shortcomings.

    We are always learning, I will still be asking questions that some may think of as "simple" when I'm at 5000 posts.
