Linking to a named anchor

Named anchors mark specific positions in a document. Use named anchors to jump to a marked position in the current document or to link to a marked position in a different document.

To create a named anchor:

1 In the Document window, place the cursor where you want the named anchor.
2 Do one of the following:
Choose Insert > Named Anchor.
Choose Window > Objects, select Invisibles from the pop-up menu at the top of the Object palette, and then click the Anchor button.
3 Enter a name for the anchor in the dialog box that appears.
If the anchor marker doesn't appear at the cursor location, choose View > Invisible Elements.

To link to a named anchor:

1 Select text or an image in the Document window.
2 In the Property inspector, enter a pound sign (#) and the name of the anchor in the Link box. For example:
To link to an anchor named "two" in the current file, type #two.
To link to an anchor named "two" in a different file in the same folder, type filename.html#two.

To link to a named anchor using the point-to-file method:

1 Choose View > Invisible Elements to make the anchor visible.
2 Select text or an image in the Document window.
3 Do one of the following:
Click the point-to-file icon in the Property inspector and drag it to the anchor you want to link to: either an anchor within the same document or to an anchor in another open document.
Shift-click in the Document window and drag to the anchor you want to link to: either an anchor within the same document or an anchor in another open document.
