jump to area on same page

[reet]

I know the basics of HTML programming and have several sites bookmarked for reference. But I need to know what I am trying to do is called so I can learn how (hope that makes sense!). What I want to do is this:

I have seen pages that have "links" such as "shipping" or "terms" that scroll down lower on the same page to that particular area. They then have "back" that scrolls back to the top of the page.

What is this called in HTML? If you can just get me started, it sure would be appreciated.

Thanks!!!

That's called a jump. It's very simple to do. First, at the location you want to jump to, place this tag
" <A NAME="putanamehere"&gt &lt/A> " with nothing between the start and end tags. Then for your link at the top or back buttons, just do the standard
" <A HREF="#putanamehere">...&lt/A> " Don't forget the pound sign. Hope this helps

Thanks! Right after I posted, I went to one of my bookmarked sites and found the codes. Took me a while, but got it all working. I appreciate you taking the time to help me. Reet
