Hello everyone.
I haven't made a webpage in a decade. I'm using HTML-kit now, but that's irrelevant... Here is an example of what I mean. The links on top of the page are supposed to jump to other section within the page, but I noticed it only works in Internet Explorer. Help. Thank you! |

You use <a href="#1"> (which is fine) and <a name="#1"> (which should be <a name="1">).
While you're at it, the online validator reports quite a few HTML errors. |

Actually, 1 isn't a valid name
QUOTE(the specs) ID and NAME tokens must begin with a letter ([A-Za-z]) and may be followed by any number of letters, digits ([0-9]), hyphens ("-"), underscores ("_"), colons (":"), and periods ("."). http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/types.html#type-cdata |

Thank you, it worked. I also used HTML-tidy in Html-kit, which fixed those errors you mentioned Darin.

QUOTE(Effovex @ May 10 2007, 01:21 AM)  Actually, 1 isn't a valid name Yeah, I have actually seen situations when a name or id starting with a number didn't work as an anchor. Peculiarly enough I think the browser that refused to use it was IE. |
