Whooa, that would be a spec violation, IIRC... :-)

Use the id-attribute. All elements have an id-attribute which is 
intended for this purpose. Presumably, you can use the id-attribute 
with some other element, e.g. a header
<h2 id="foo">This is the Foo Subsection</a>
or, if there is no natural anchor there, you need one of the generic 
elements, span for inline and div for block, e.g.: 
There's a <span id="foo">Foo</span> in the Bar!

See http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/global.html#adef-id

Note that id is a relatively new attribute, and not all older browsers 
support it, lynx was the first, AFAIK! :-)

Best,
