This should be pretty simple for you geniuses out there.

This is not something I would do on my own as I do not like it. However I need to put this functionality on a page for someone.

Basically I have a long document. The user needs to click on a link at the top of the page and be taken to the paragraph within the doc. any ideas? I alos need a link at the bottom of the page to take the user back to the top.

Thanks in advance!

Example:

Link- Paragraph 1
Link2- Paragraph 2

back to top link

Thank you!

Hehe, it's John Pollock's site as many of us still remember him(former TWF moderator).

To further explain -- you can use to identify the location in the document that you want to jump to. Then whenever you want to link to it within the same document, you put Link and if you want to link to it from a DIFFERENT document, you put Link.

The use of name and the # are _Internal Targets_, if you want to read anything more about them look for those key words.
