- Post a link so when people click on it the link will take them to a designated part of the page?, hopefully you know what I mean.

I dont think you know what I mean. I need the code that when someone clicks a link it takes them midway down the webpage or to the bottom ect.

for example:)

If you have a page with a bunch of different articles and you want your visitors to jump to a certain area or article, what is the code for this?, so visitors dont have to scroll down. Hope this is more clear.

Here's an example of what you are talking about.

<body>
<a href="#mid">Click here to go to "mid".</a>
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
You are here <a name="mid" />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
The End!

Edit: Sorry to be so short with the answer...got interrupted. Anyway, it's called an "anchor". See here for more details: http://www.ncsu.edu/it/edu/html_trng/html_links.html (about halfway down the page, "Linking to a named anchor").

Yeah, targets are the way to go. All you need to do is include a # with your link tag like this:

<a href="#link">This is a link</a>

And then include a target where you want the link to take you in the page.

<a name="link">This is where you are taken</a>
