If you're trying to do it without frames you can use a named anchor. The link code would be

[a href="#name"]text[/a]

& where you want to end up, the code is

[a name="name"][/a]

replace [ with <

that's what is used in the page you mentioned to jump from one spot to the other.

you don't have to put anything between the a name & /a. It's just marking a place on the page.

Basically what you are looking for are called anchor hyperlinks. What you are doing, as what Cheryl previously mentioned, is that you are linking a part of a text from the a hyperlink (much like the ones you see every day - the normal anchor href tags). They look like this:

<a href="#presentation">Put down what you want do for your link here</a>

and then you want that the name, which in this case is presentation, to link to your section of the page that has that name assigned - in other words, where you want it to jump to, you just put this:

<a name="presentation">The text that it will jump to</a>

By putting an analogous name, in this case presentation, you are linking two things together. Make one a link, with the pound before it, and you are well off for the interpage linking.

Hope that helps (and sry if it was repetitive),
