WE7 Bookmark within Text Box HELP

ShannonS · 10-07-2009, 10:41 AM

I am working with WE7, I have a text box that has at least 3 pages worth of text in it. My text box is the same size as my web page, and the box has a scroll bar. I want to link buttons to sections of the text within the box, so viewers can jump from section to section and not have to scroll. I can not seem to bookmark within the text box, only to the text box itself. Can anyone provide some insite as to how to accomplish this task?

I can't really see what you are working with, but there is a way to do this with the anchor element <a>:

HTML Code:

<a name="uniquename"></a>
<a href="#uniquename">Your Text Here</a>

where uniquename is a unique one-word identifier. You can use the same name on multiple pages, but not for different elements on the same page.

Place <a name="uniquename"> where you want the bookmark to go to, and <a href="#uniquename">Your Text Here</a> where you want the bookmark itself to be.
