Bookmarks not working correctly

I am having problems getting my bookmarks to work. First I create the
bookmarks, then I create the hyperlink selecting the bookmark on the page I
want. No matter what I do all of my hyperlinks connect to the first bookmark
or top of page. I've checked the hyperlink properties and they seem to be set
up correctly. What could I be doing wrong?

Sounds like you might want to post a link to the code.

At the html level it sounds like your not actually getting different tags in
there so they are all going to the same location. If my memory is not
faulty I think it is the tag after the # that has to be unique. Its been a
couple of years since I played with that, so my details could be off.

I don't know why but when I actually published the site it was working. It
does not wok when I am working on it in Front Page. I spent a lot of time
trying to fix it just to find out it worked. Thanks everyone. I hope this
helps someone else.

Hi Mike,

I am not Kathleen, but I had a look at yout site and all links from the Home
Page appear to be links to other pages only (i.e. not to bookmaeked
positions on those pages)

That is, they are all of the form
<a href="victorian_geometric_tiling.htm">
and not for example
<a href="victorian_geometric_tiling.htm#para1">
where para1 would be a named anchor on the page

Can you give me an example on your site of where you want go to somewhere
other than to the top of another page

Thank you Trevor for such a fast response.

Here's an example of what I was trying to do.
On the Home page to click on 'qualifications' and be linked to the
'qualifications' paragraph on the 'Other Information' page, and similarly on
the 'Contents' page to link 'qualifications' to the 'qualifications'
paragraph on the 'Other Information' page.
The only way I could make it work was to reset the link each time I used it.
It seemed unable to accept that I wanted to link to one destination from two
different start points.

Thank you
Mike

Problem now solved. I hadn't been saving the insertion of bookmarks in a
timely way. Sorry to have taken up your time

Please ignore my last recent message where I jubilantly exclaimed that all
was well. The links worked for one time only and than erroneously always
went to the top of the destination page. I tried Linda's tip and looked at
the published results but the links were not sustained after the first
success.

Any Ideas please.
Mike
