Question

Anchor creation

Good morning, with Dreamweaver 2021 15392 version I am having difficulty navigating the menus that are different from the CS6 version.

In particular, I am no longer able to find the entries to anchor from one page to another.

Thanks

Mne

    "I am no longer able to find the entries to anchor from one page to another"

    ===============

    Hi @mne5E04,

    That's correct.  Named anchors are deprecated in HTML5 code.  CS6 came out in 2012 so it's 8-1/2 years behind the coding curve.   Nowadays, we use unique IDs instead of named anchors.

     

    EXAMPLE:

    <section id="ID1">

    This is ID 1 content

    </section>

     

    <section id="ID2">

    This is ID 2 content.

    </section>

     

    LINKS:

    <a href="#ID1">Link to ID1 on same page.</a>

    <a href="index.html#ID1">Link to ID1 from another page.</a>

     

    And so on....
