Anchors allow you to specify a place on a page that you can link to, to move the page to that point without needing to scroll down. This is very handy on pages that are very long with a lot of content. Back to Top linksJust below the <body> tag add this code: <a name="top" id="top"></a> This adds an anchor at the top of the page. To create a link to the top of the page you need to use this code: <a xhref="http://skeletorscorpse.com/joomla/#top">Back to Top</a> Page sectionsYou can also use anchors on main sections of your site. Such as: <a name="section 1" id="section1"></a>Section 1 To get to this section you need to add a link elsewhere on your page. <a xhref="http://skeletorscorpse.com/joomla/#section1">Go to Section 1</a> Anchor point on another pageYou can also link to another section on a completely different page. Add the anchor to the a page then in a different page add a link like this: <a xhref="page5a.html#section1">Go to Section 1 on Page 5a</a>                |
