Bookmarks - different question

I have a bit of a different question - regarding bookmarks:

If you go to this page -

http://www.brickwallbuster.com/aobit.htm and click on the name Adams,
Elsie - you are taken to the obit for Mrs. Nellie Fish. Elsie Adams is
mentioned in the obit for Mrs. Nellie Fish.

Question: Is it possible to somehow highlight the name of Elsie Adams in
the obit of Mrs. Nellie Fish, or am I asking the impossible? The reason I
would want to do this is because it's not obvious (to me) that Elsie Adams
is in the obit for Mrs. Nellie Fish.

I am reformatting pages made by someone else, so I am using her method of
indexing. From a researcher's point of view, it's GREAT to have everyone
mentioned in the various obits and marriage announcements in the index, but
from a user's point of view, it's not quickly obvious why we are taken to
someone else's obit.

Thank you,
Brenda

There is no feature or function within FP to do this.

You can bookmark the name with the a element so that it shows up at the top
of the page when linked to, but I don't know of a way to highlight it.

Can be done with a combination of CSS, JavaScript and some work. If
there a more than a half dozen names you may decide it's not worth the
aggravation.

See http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/tests...enda-page1.htm which
loads
http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/tests...enda-page2.htm with a name
highlighted in a chosen section.

Ron,

Thank you. There are LOTS of names. I will look at your examples and give
it a try (may have to ask some questions as I proceed.)

I very well may decide it's not worth the aggravation. I do thank you.

Brenda

Ron,

Thank you -- that looks like a LOT of work -- far above my abilities at this
point.

Brenda
