Simple Internal Links not working
This should be pretty straightforward, I am trying to create a "Table of Contents" that links to various parts of a long page...
This is what I tried:
<ul>
<li><a href="#features">Features</a></li>
</ul>
Further down in the page...
<a name="features"></a>
Am I missing something? It simply never links as if the anchor is not linked properly.
I appreciate any advice in this regard.
Many thanks in advance!
Answer
To those having a similar problem, I found out why it was not working.
Many elements on my page are floating elements. As a result, the browser cannot find a precise point to link to if the anchor target is not within a floated element. In other words, if the anchor tag is outside a floating element, and you have many floating elements on your page, internal links may not work properly. To fix this, place your anchor target within one of the floating elements.
