Sooo.. I've got this navigation on the frontpage. I'm trying make it link to an anchor on another page.
www.oddfuse.com
This is the anchor link:
<a class="hover" title="Skills" href="/page#skills">
As you can see, it does not redirect to the specified page.
However it does work when typed directly into the address bar:
www.oddfuse.com/page#skills
This also works:
<a class="hover" title="Skills" href="/page">
But with the hash, I get no response whatsoever.
Any ideas on how I fix this?
Okay, so it turned out that it was the jQuery Mobile somehow messing with the anchor tags.
I needed to put data-ajax="false" in the link, and it now works perfectly. TMYK.
Found the solution here
can you try including the file extension?
i.e.
<a class="hover" title="Skills" href="/page.html#skills" />
I'm wondering if it thinks the # is part of a file name that can't be found.
If you want a link to jump a specific location on a different page, you'll need to replace #anchor with the full URL for the target page, similar to:
<a class="hover" title="Skills" href="http://oddfuse.com/page/#skills">

Okay, this is so simple yet I don't know how to do it.
I use vhost that makes localhost/wamp/www/blog/public become blog.dev
sample:
Stack Overflow
expected result: go to stackoverflow.com
what it actually does: go to blog.dev/stackoverflow.com
So, how should I do?
First of all, if you use a relative URL like above, your browser will assime that it's a URL relative to the URL you're currently browsing. That's why
<a href="stackoverflow.com">
links to blog.dev/stackoverflow.com
Replace
<a href="stackoverflow.com">
with the absolute URL
<a href="http://stackoverflow.com">
to get what you need.
Secondly, you could add target attribute to your URL if you want to open the link in a new window/tab:
<a href="http://stackoverflow.com" target="_blank">
I'm trying to create a menu on a website, and it keeps redirecting to the page I'm creating no matter what I put in the href tags. I can't figure out what's causing it, I figured maybe another set of eyes could help me figure it out.

EDIT: fixed link
it is
file
and not
<a href src="http://adammcgee.com/clients/sdaysrodeo/file.html">file</a>
the attribute src is used with
<img>
for example
<img src="image.gif">
the address you give us for you gist is bad.
it is not
https://gist.github.com/b3f3abc42c517c8ba7ab.git
but
https://gist.github.com/b3f3abc42c517c8ba7ab
without "git" at the end
then the only link I found in your menu is not correct.
it is
<a href src="http://adammcgee.com/clients/sdaysrodeo/sdays-rodeo/announcer/#">PRCA</a>
it should nor finish by a "#" and you should have the extension of the page, like :
http://adammcgee.com/clients/sdaysrodeo/sdays-rodeo/announcer/page.html
I've got an un-complicated .aspx page and I've added some bookmark anchors at that re-direct to a different page with bookmarks.
The anchors look like this:
From http://www.davincispainting.com/painting-solutions
<a class="questionLink" href="painting-answers#Answer7">Paint Chalking</a>
When you click on this Hyperlink in Firefox, the URL does indicate the bookmark:
http://www.davincispainting.com/painting-answers#Answer7
However, this do not navigate to the actual bookmark in the 2nd page
<h2 id="answer7">Paint Chalking</h2>
The problem occurs in Firefox but not IE8.
I originally thought that the Routing was causing the issue, as I do not inlcude the .aspx page extension in the link. So I added the extension, which still doesn't work.
<a class="questionLink" href="painting-answers.aspx#Answer7">Paint Chalking</a>
How can I debug this problem?
Does the page file end in an extension? If so, make sure your link includes the extension. Also, check your capitalization. Also, the standard practice for the bookmark syntax is to not navigate based on ID of a random control, but rather the anchor tag. See W3 Schools Example.
You should have...
<a id="answer7" />
<h2>Paint Chalking</h2>
and the link should look like this:
<a class="questionLink" href="PATHTOPAGE#answer7">Paint Chalking</a>
Where PATHTOPAGE is replaced with the absolute or relative path to the other page. Make sure that resolves.
The problem was the name itself:
<h2 id="Answer7" style="font-size:1.5em; color:Green;">Paint Chalking</h2>
is different than:
<h2 id="answer7" style="font-size:1.5em; color:Green;">Paint Chalking</h2>
I have a link on one page that needs to go to a different page, but load to a specific section on that other page.
I have done this before with bootstrap but they take all the 'coding' out of it, so I need to know how to do from scratch. Here is the markup I have based on this link (not the best resource, I know): http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp
**Page One**
<a href="/academics/page.html#timeline> Click here </a>
**Page I am linking to**
<div id="timeline" name="timeline"> ... </div>
Can I do this with just HTML, or do I need some JavaScript? If I need to do it via JS, it needs to be on the target page, right?
I believe the example you've posted is using HTML5, which allows you to jump to any DOM element with the matching ID attribute. To support older browsers, you'll need to change:
<div id="timeline" name="timeline" ...>
To the old format:
<a name="timeline" />
You'll then be able to navigate to /academics/page.html#timeline and jump right to that section.
Also, check out this similar question.
You can simply use
<a href="directry/filename.html#section5" >click me</a>
to link to a section/id of another page by
To navigate to a section of another page use:
<a href="example.html#example-section>name-of-link</a>
The example.html would be the page you want to go to, and the #example-section would be the name of the id on that page that you want to navigate to.
To link from a page to another section of the page, I navigate through the page depending on the page's location to the other, at the URL bar, and add the #id. So what I mean;
This takes you #the_part_that_you_want at the page before
I tried the above answer - using page.html#ID_name it gave me a 404 page doesn't exist error.
Then instead of using .html, I simply put a slash / before the # and that worked fine. So my example on the sending page between the link tags looks like:
El Chorro
Just use / instead of .html.
To link from a page to another section just use
my first div
I want to link to a section of a dynamic page using the # anchor. Something like this:
<a href=page.php?id=3#section-name>LINK</a>
It didn't work. What is the right way to do it?
I'm not using a direct link, but a redirect like header("Location:page.php?id=3#section-name") from another script.
I have a section named section-name in file page.php. I guess page.php has a problem figuring out the value of the id to process (3 or 3#section-name). I am redirected to page.php which has its content repeated vertically.
You've only presented half of your code so I can only give a sample of the proper way to do it:
<body>
<a name="top"> </a>
<a href="#top">
Go To Top Of Page
</a>
</body>
When using anchor tags, you can target an element by its ID. Browsers will look for the ID before it looks for the name attribute when the link refers to such.
<a href="#section-name>LINK</a> will go directly to <div id="section-name"> if it exists.
Here's an example
Read: HTML Anchors with 'name' or 'id'?
A typical anchor tag works as follows:
A href link tag is written like so:
Jump to a001
See the #a001 above? That is referencing an id in the HTML page, and it will jump to it if you click this link.
To provide an example of how this id that we would jump to might look on a page, look below.
<li id="a001">text here</li>
