I cannot get my Anchors to function on this web page:

http://grapevineiow.org/m_diary.html

I am trying to enable users to jump to each of the tables, but it isn't working. I have tried moving them around, using different names, etc, but i cannot tell why they won't work.

Any comments/suggestions?

Thanks.

Your links use href="#aug2012"

Your anchors use name="#aug12"

There are two things wrong. First, you shouldn't include the sharp (#) character in the anchor. Second, the anchor and the link need to use the same string. They should be

href="#aug2012"

name="aug2012"

Thanks, looks like I need to be a bit more observant!
