Bookmarks in emailed newsletter?

This might be a silly question but if I create a newsletter in FP and then
copy paste it from FP to Outlook to send to our members and it has bookmarks
at the beginning of the newsletter to go directly to info in the newsletter
that they want to read about why don't the bookmark links work once the
receiver gets the email? All hyperlinks work, of course, but not the
bookmarks.

Is this a 'lack of common sense' question perhaps? It's otay if it is, I
have the worst cold in the world, been working waaaaaaaay too many hours for
the past 3 years and trying to wear 50 million hats at work let alone try to
concentrate on anything! :-(

Oh well, will bookmarks work and if not, is there any other way to link in
an email newsletter to the subject areas without using bookmarks? It works
fine in FP and browser but not in emailed newsletter, that I can see anyway.

Help is greatly appreciated!
Judy

Not really an FP question but.

In OE, to bookmark to a word lower on the page.

Your link would be :
<A href="#Testing">test</A>

The word you bookmark too:
<A name=Testing>Testing</A>

Open a new message window, click View > Source Edit.

Paste the above in Source view in OE, with enough blank spaces between the
two so that testing can't be seen, and then click Preview on the Source View
toolbar.



It's going to take a lot of hand editing.

View the web page in HTML and make sure that the bookmark links ARE
relative to the current page (the one you will copy)

Like this <A href="#bookmark1">bookmark 1</A>
(i.e make sure that there is nothing before "#" in the A tag.

And of course, you want links to pages on the wrb to be absolute links
Like this
<A href="http://mysite/mypage.html">My pagee</A>
or
<A href="http://mysite/mypage.html#bookmark">bookmark on my pagee</A>

Just remember that an HTML email newsltter is a stand alone web page
that can be displayed by email client (sort like a web browser).

Thank you both! I will see what I can do with your suggestions. The reason
I asked on FP forum is because I created the whole thing in FP and the
bookmarks to sections within the newsletter all worked fine when I saved it
in FP and viewed it in IE6.

Thanks again,
Judy

From time to time I E-mail a FAQ out and I thought this might help you some.
Just shows how easy it can be to do links on the same page.....
A very simple example:

<h1>FAQ</h1>
<h2>Questions</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="#a1">question 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#a2">question 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#a3">question 3</a></li>
</ul>

....

<h2>Answers</h2>
<h3 id="a1">question 1</h3>
<p>answer 1</p>

<h3 id="a2">question 2</h3>
<p>answer 2</p>

<h3 id="a3">question 3</h3>
<p>answer 3</p>


Hope this Helps some...
