Using Named Anchor's

Anchors let you set markers in a document. If you had a large page and wanted to reference it using some links you could anchors. A popular one which you may see a lot of is [back to top].

Inserting an Anchor

From the common or insert menu select named anchor. I have named the anchor Top, but as it is just an element which is'nt going to be visable it can named whatever you want. The anchor can put anywhere on a HTML document so creating links can be endless.

Linking to an Anchor

Linking is very simple if you use the point to file method. Alternatively you can type #Top which is the name of the anchor.If you wanted to link to an anchor in a different file but in the same root folder you would type filename.html#Top.
(Anchors are case sensitive)
