If anybody stumbles on this from google or otherwise by accident, XOOPS kicks ass...

Question:
I don't know the line where Xoops-specific questions end and newbie coding questions begin. I hope I don't cross that line. I'd search this and other forums for documentation but I don't know any keywords to get started. I'd like at the top of a webpage to give the reader the option of skipping down the middle of the same page. It's a long Frequently Asked Questions "News" item. At the top, I'd like to say 'To skip to the [middle section] [bottom section] click 'here' and 'here'. I've seen this done before but don't know what it's called? I found an example and looked at the source but couldn't figure it out.

Example:
Website: The Elder Geek, Services Section http://www.theeldergeek.com/services_guide.htm

What I'd Like To Emulate:
See how at the top middle of the page it says "Click here to skip my opening..." That's what I want. I looked at his source and it just says:
"
[Click Here to Skip My Opening Drivel and Get to the Services]

So the link uses the # sign, but I don't know what it means in this case.

Again, sorry for the not-really-Xoops-specific question. I'm embarrassed just posting this now.

that's simple: use < a name="one"> (without the initial whitespace) to create the anchors you want to point to, and use < a href="#one">One to point to it

Thanks, I appreciate the help. It worked! Me and my XOOPS website couldn't be happier. The more I delve into XOOPS the happier I get.
