*a href="url"#link text*/a#
you have to use the pointy brackets too but i can't put them on this forum.
*that is the one that points left, # is the one that points right. |

You're probably better off googling it actually, can't post certain symbols on here. Especially if you're after links that go to certain parts of a page (which i think you are?) |

I am just sorting out links on my webpage.
On my main page I have a list of items. A person clicks that item and it takes them to the page with that item.
Then when they click a link back it takes them to the list.
Rather then go to the top of the list all the time I want to go to where they were.
So I know it has something to do with
{a href="http://websitehere/#linkhere"}Messagelinkhere/a}
Then on the other page I have to produce the receiving link.
So far..... no good.
Anyone on here shed some advice. I know it is a simple one but it is only simple if you know how to do it lol

Linking to a certain part of a page will be difficult unless when you are on that the URL address for the page changed
Move the page to the Desired part and refresh, if it reloads to the same part copy the URL and copy it into a private browser, see it opens to the part you need without your main browsers cache
If it works put the URL into a HREF link,
May work depends on the page you are linking to part off |

Just to update you, I know very very very very little (like just about a couple of commands) and that is it. Very easily confused.
Step by step would be good.
To be honest I thought it was as easy as putting a html link on one page and on the receiving page put a link to scroll too. They are both on the same domain if that makes a difference.
I just want to stop people scrolling down all the time. |

HTML Links - Create a Bookmark
HTML bookmarks are used to allow readers to jump to specific parts of a Web page.
Bookmarks are practical if your website has long pages.
To make a bookmark, you must first create the bookmark, and then add a link to it.
When the link is clicked, the page will scroll to the location with the bookmark.

Do that.

"Anyone have advice of linking to a certain part of a page from another page
"
Anchor the link.
I could tell you right here but it would take the whole page.
Bing search "How to Anchor Links" |

"I'm confused as to what you are trying to achieve so..."
The main page is long and has items for sale. People will scroll down and when they see something they can click it and see the detailed page. On that page there is a link to go back to the list of items. Currently it would go back to the top of the list.
I want to use the /a # commands which will allow it to return to the main page but scroll down to item on the list they have just viewed. This would then allow them to keep scrolling down and look at the other items from the part they were at rather then scroll from the top after every page they read and come back from. |

I see.
You'd have to use an individual anchor for each item and respective page. You could also look up iframes as an alternative which would keep the page they are on intact.
Are you not using some kind of template anyway? There are quite a few templated CMS's that would allow for such activity anyway I imagine. |
