I want to post some links on my main page that make the browser window land on a specific spot on a separate targeted page, within the site.

I did this before using something like this (but the links are on the same page as the targets) -

<a href="#Target Name">Some Text</a>



Then the appropriate target would have - 



<a name="Target Name">Some Point On The Page</a>

(might be something slightly different than that, but it's close)

How do I make that same code work by having the original link on a whole different page, and the target spot somwhere else?

Like this?

<a href="About.asp#four">Link to Thingy on other page</a>



<a name="four">Thingy on other page</a>

geek?

yeah, ya know, geek!!

I woulda had to look that up and Im aaaalllll geeky nerd!
I can insult people in binary!!
Mind, i have to look it up too.

kudos for getting it within 30 minutes though, nice one

I´m studying absolute positioning with css at the moment, it´s difficult.

aknet47 actually knew what it was called, which is geeky.

I on the other hand "stole" it from my own about page which is lazy shiftless geeky.

I've done a bit of absolute positioning. I try not to use that unless it's absolutely necessary though..

So is that how you write the code, or is that a guess??

It's actually how I write the code and it actually works.. Click the "Privacy" menu tab in the header of the gift site for a working demo..

Hey griff... what the heck is with the black avatar?

It not all the way black. It's like an upside down spooky helmet face thing or something... to be rambling ambiguous.

or possibly a right side up spooky helmet face thing or something when viewed from a different perspective..

OK I give.

Hey griff... what the heck is with the black avatar?

I like the rounded boarders trick for the headings too - bookmarked it for further investigations.

Heh heh -- it's not that difficult; we've all been there at one time or another!

if there still is one...

aknet47 - Google for "Nifty Corners" and CSS or something or PM me and I'll help you get the parts together if you like.

Spooky Helmet Face?

I don't see it. I have a single black box... nothing in it at all.

There USED to be a guy there, then it disappeared somewhere.

Copy the image to the clipboard and paste it into whatever you can lighten it up with and poof: "spooky helmet face thing" looking right at ya.

Html... css... geeks... all the cool kids use cool things like graphics programs that export html and java

That is actually how the code is supposed to be written. And, it does work. ;-)
