{scrollbar:icons=false} h1. Linking to a specific place on a page The following are the steps to link to a specific place on a page. # Navigate to the place to which you want to link. # Immediately after the text to which you want to link, enter an anchor: {code}{anchor:anchortext}{code} where "anchortext" will be used as a "bookmark" in the link you create. Put the anchor after the item you want to be approximately at the top of the screen when the link target opens. # Navigate to the place where you want to insert the link. # If that place is on the same page, create the link in the following form: {code}[linktext|#anchortext]{code} # If that place is on another wiki page, create the link in the following form: {code}[linktext|https://TinyLink#NameOfPageWithoutSpaces-anchortext]{code} For example, this wiki markup: {code}[Warning to avoid duplication of content|https://wiki.nci.nih.gov/x/-wxy#WikiFAQs,TipsandGuidelines-warningtoavoidduplicationofcontent]{code} provides a link back to the last item on the FAQs main page. The working link is [Warning to avoid duplication of content|https://wiki.nci.nih.gov/x/-wxy#WikiFAQs,TipsandGuidelines-warningtoavoidduplicationofcontent]. Thus the link from another wiki page to a specific place on a page is constructed as follows: *the tiny link* followed by *\#* followed by *the full text of the page title as it may be displayed in the browser window, without the plus signs* followed by a dash followed by the anchor text. {note:title=Note}If you change the name of the page, the link opens the page but does not go to the specific place on the page.{note} {scrollbar:icons=false} |
