If you check the websites which use commentpress for commenting (example: http://futureofthebook.org/commentpress/), you can see there is a link like:
2 comments on paragarph 1
and when you click on the link, it will show the comments for that paragraph, and if you click on the link again, the comments will hide.
How can I make those kind of link? I know if use something like:
Comment for whole article<br>
I will have a link, that if I click on it, it will take me to the another part of the page, but I want to have the same thing as I mentioned above.
I didn't find what you were referring to on that web site, but it sounds like you're describing some method of toggling visibility of an element. You can do that with either JavaScript or with CSS selectors; here's how to do it with CSS.

While I'm trying to switch between different sections of my webpage I am getting the following page as shown in the image. How can I solve this?
you need to provide context for your question for people being able to help you. I imagine you are trying to navigate between different html files, by clicking into an anchor tag, is that correct?
Go to next page
So in that case, you might be adding a wrong relative route, otherwise I think you should add more context to your question.
If you are trying to switch between sections on your webpage. Try adding section and giving them id. Then from any anchor tag you can reach the section by adding the following code.
Section 1
you can use jquery
$(".div").load("index.php .yoursection");
To switch between sections on your webpage,Use the id selector ,
Example:
<p id="opening">Hyperlinks are utilized by a web browser to move from one page to another...</p>
Now add the anchor tag to link,
Opening
"Opening" will be displayed as a link on the webpage. On clicking it, you will be switched on the same webpage where the id is "Opening".
In this example it is the paragraph tag.
If you trying to switch into another webpage,
Go to home page
I have made an web page. There are two iframes
In it. First is of index and second one is description page. I want that when I click on the any index hyperlink, then it is displayed on main description page.
How it will be possible? please give me the HTML code
You can use a button and when clicking it, change the url of the iFrame using Javascript like this:
document.getElementById('iframe-id').src = newLink;
You can use the data-attribute to store the wanted link in your html.
In case you want to do that: It is not possible to react to things outside of an iFrame through an iFrame. So you cannot put a link in iFrame1 and have it reload iFrame2, because those are two different websites and don't see each other.
Now, idk what exactly you are planing to do, but I really hope, that you don't want to make your entire site like that. Using iFrames is really only useful for things like inserting widgets (like Codepen etc.), but should never be used to display information from your own site. If you don't want to copy your html for every site then use PHP. If you don't want to reload your entire webpage (which is pretty much never a problem) you can use AJAX-requests to load parts of your website. (Frameworks like React.js, Angular.js and Vue.js do that for you)
The default way to jump to somewhere in a HTML page is use the a href/a name tags. However, if I want to refer to an external website, somewhere in the middle and that external page does not use the a name tag, is there an alternative way? Like jumping to the first occurrence of some text?
Not possible unless the external website has any custom support for it and they don't have name or id in the desired location.
You really don't need a:
<a name="named-anchor"></a>
Find the nearby element with an id attribute. For eg., consider this:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-openvpn-server-on-ubuntu-14-04
The site has:
<h2 id="prerequisites">Prerequisites</h2>
So you can go to that place, by adding # and the id value:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-openvpn-server-on-ubuntu-14-04#prerequisites
If that's not there, then it is not possible.
It's only possible if you find element with ID at the place of where to jump, than simply apply #id-of-element to link.
E.g. We have this HTML attributes list and want to link to lang attribute.
Inspect element and we find <dt id="attr-lang"> than link would be https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes#attr-lang
If one of the elements on the site which your are trying to link to has an id attached to it.
You can force the load of the page onto that specific element by adding a hashtag at the end of the url of the website, and the name of the id for that specific element.
For example:
Click me!
Try clicking this clicking this link just here:
Link to a part inside an external HTML page
You will notice that it brings you to the footer section of this StackOverflow post.
However, other than that there are no other possible ways of achieving this (at least as far as Google knows)
I would like to link to a second H2 on a different site, so when clicking on my link will automatically scroll to a specific paragraph.
I don't think it's possible. There is no default parameter or something for that, right?
Perhaps you should try it with an iframe, check out this post
You see the stackoverflow.com inside of the red border? I know that it can be changed by HTML DOM but I don't know how.
No, it can't be changed. What you could do is is not create a link but instead have an element with style="cursor:pointer" with a click handler that navigator to another page. That's kind of evil though and breaks things like search engines and accessibility
