A Stupid Newbie Question about HTML
Okay, I am trying to learn HTML and I would like to know how I can link an image on one page and have to go to another area/section of a completely new page.
I have tried hunting down some tutorials on the web, but they are just not making sense to me.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks

So you want the link to go partway down the page, is that right?
First, in the page you're targetting, put in a marker where you want the link to go to. The code for that is like this:
Then, from the image you want to link, you will do something like this:

Actually Megan, what I am trying to do is be able to link an image from page A to a section/area on page B that has an image and text.
I understand how to jump from one part of a page to another part on the same page, now I am trying to figure out how to jump from one page to another.
Hopefully this explains it better.

I think this is what you want
This will take you to thispage.html where the anchor named anchorname is
Take out #anchorname if you don't have an anchor on thispage.html

Another way would have been to use the 'hotspot' tool.

Isn't the IMG tag a self closing tag? So, wouldn't it be:

I just like to make up tags here and there to make things a little more interesting

Okay, I'm sick and my head is really fuzzy right now, but how is what Matt showed different from what I had???
Or did I just not explain it right?

Didn't you change your post? I remember seeing the code but without the #target in it. Maybe it's my head that is really fuzzy...

I guess you two have fuzzy heads LOL! .... target names could be anyname, they are just there to be uniquely labeled for sections you want to jump into "just to clarify"...
Anyways the problem is solved, so lets talk about fiziness this time...
