I am making a webpage and I need to have a bunch of links at the top of a really long page. The links take you to a certain location in the page. I've seen this done before, does anyone know how I can do this?

Use anchors.

example:

<a href="yourpage#section1">Section 1</a>

Then down your page put:
<a name="section1">

If you ever need to know anything else with html, just find a simple page that does what you want and view the source.
That's why I got my .html skills from!

what software are you using? is it publisher, word, PP, etc...

<a href="yourpage#section1">Section 1</a>

I don't think so.
You just need to be flexible a little bit, and just 'expect' what it is, then test (and fail), and test again (and fail again), then you would have learned it right [6)] (well, if u have time that is).
I learnt VB, ASP, HTML in those way, and now i only use NotePad to write all my HTML.

Notepad will help you learn the general concepts of different programming languages and more trust me ;)

Trial and error is infalible but still READ THE MANUAL it will save many years.
