Internal Links
What if you wanted to let visitors jump around your web page? Suppose you have a long page, and want users to have the ability to jump back to the top of the page or right to the bottom of the page?
Or suppose you're putting a paper on the web and you want to have footnotes? Web designers can use an internal link to satisfy these types of needs.
Internal links let visitors be pointed to a specific spot on a web page.
<a name="specificspot"></a>
The text in the NAME attribute can be anything, but using one word is best.
Point users to this spot by using the number sign with whatever was used in the NAME attribute.
<a href="#specificspot">Go to this location.</a>
