Another kind of link you may have seen on the Internet makes it possible for you to jump from one place on a page to another place on the same page. You can also use this trick to link from one page to a specific place on another page.

I am just going to create links from the top part of this page to a lower part to show you how it works. So first, I am going to scroll back up to the top of this page. You will notice that in my opening paragraph I mentioned Shutterfly and Flickr which I have descriptions for down below. So, I am going to make it possible for people to link it immediately from here down to that lower explanation. The tricky thing about jump points is that before you can set a link to a lower place on a page you fist have to put an anchor there, so that the browser knows where to go on that page.

So I put my cursor where I want my anchor and then I go up here to look it’s an anchor. And then I click on the anchor and now I am going to give this a name.
