How do i link to specific parts of a page?

only me!

i read how to do this on webmonkey about a year ago... and for the life of me i cant find it anymore

i need to be able to link to specific paragraphs of the page... so people can jump from one paragraph way down to another part. also can i do this from other pages? like link form my main page to halfway down on another page?

thanks for any help!

I'm pretty sure you set a tag <A name="blah"> then link to it like <A href="pagename.html#blah">

In your case, when you start the paragraphs you could set a name at the first word or something and do your links that way.

yeah, that's exactly correct. if it's on the same page you can do the following:
Code:
<a href="#placeIWantToGoTo">
...stuff.....
<a name="placeIWantToGoTo">
or... if it's on a different page, you can use this instead:
Code:
<a href="fred.html#placeIWantToGoTo">
