Expert: Anthony Levensalor Date: 11/8/2007 Subject: need some way to have page open 1/3 down on the page
Question HI I hope you can help me. I am sure there is some easy way to do this but I can't seem to find it. What I want to do is when a page is opened in a browser is to have it open about 1/3 down on the page.
An example of a page I want to do this is here http://www.greatcarolinaproperty.com/farms/160400a.htm I want to be able to override it opening on the top where all my links are and open where the picture is on top. Now you may ask why don't I just design the picture at the top of the page but I need those links for many reasons including Search engine optimization. It is just every time you want to look at another picture on another page you have to scroll down each time . Any way to do this simply?
Thanks Susan :)
Answer I absolutely understand, and this is pretty easy to do once you know how. :)
Specify an anchor tag (<a>) where you want the page to go to:
That "#" and the name of the anchor on the end will load the page then jump down to the anchor, if it exists. If the anchor doesn't exist on the page, it will just stay at the top.
If you need any further help with this, please do let me know, I hope this helps solve your issue.
