Hello,

My personal experience of links which don't open pages, but, rather, are intended as bookmarks to page locations is that they always fail to do what they are supposed to. A clear example for me is Wiki articles, which are loaded with these. Unless they open other pages, they do nothing useful.

Take care,

Rod :)

Subject: Re: creating links within a file

I have seen this problem and reported to gw.

I have been editing and posting books on my webpage for several years based on the info from Cathyanne Murtha's "HTML Made Easy" instruction file. Lately I have encountered a problem using the links internal to the file. Window-Eyes 8.1, XP PRO SP3, and IE8 are the software programs I am using. When I click on a chapter in the table of contents I am returned to the top of the page. Incidentally, this also happens with Firefox. When I go to my shell account, the Lynx browser works just fine. Also, shutting off W-E allows the links to work normally for a sighted person. When I load a large file I get a message from IE8 about incompatibility, but a small file doesn't seem to indicate such.

Several people have suggested that I need to change my coding. This I would be willing to do, but everything suggested thus far has not worked. If anybody on the list is familiar with creating links within a file, I would be interested in talking with you or exchanging emails. Should you want to check this out, you can click on this link to see if you have the same problem.

One further item: I have discussed this with GWMicro support and it may be that there is a buffer problem with respect to W-E and the browsers.

Any suggestions and/or help will be appreciated.
