How do you link to a specific location in another page?

I'm working in Dreamweaver CS4. I'm trying to create a link to go to a specific location on another page in my website. Any advice?

All the information I have seen about Named Anchors deals with information that is contained on the same page. I am looking to go to a specific location on a different page. Is this possible using Named Anchors? If so, how?
Sure it is.
Place a named anchor on your destination page near the bottom of your page for this test. And name your anchor 1.
On the parent page, your link will look like this:
<a href="some_page.html#1">this is a link to named anchor 1</a>
Save both pages and test in browser.

Linking to a specific panel from another page and from higher up on same page Spry-UI-1.7

Hi all,
I am using Spry-UI-1.7 for a 4 tab tabbed panel on the bottom of my home page. I'd like to link to the second tab from another page and also from the top of the home page.
I previously used method: http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/spry_url_utils.php and it worked great.
Now, with the Spry-UI-1.7 Tabbed Panel "widget", that method isn't working.
I've reviewed the code from the samples page: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/tabbedpanels/tabbed_panel_sample.htm
but cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. It shows the following code for linking from another page:
<a href="#" onclick="TabbedPanels2.showPanel(1); return false;">Tab 2</a>
I tried this 'as is' and it didn't work.
I tried it with index.html in place of the # and it didn't work.
(e.g.   <a href="index.html" onclick="TabbedPanels2.showPanel(1); return false;">Tab 2</a>   )
What am I missing here?
(I have the tabbed panel on "index.html" and want to link from "maps.html" and from the top of "index.html"
Thanks for any help for this spry newbie! (read: I need it spelled out like I was a 6 yr. old

This works

How do you pass more than 3 items to another page via a Column Link?

I know this is a simple question, but I don't see it covered in the manual.
I have a report on page 1, when the user clicks on a column link, I'd like to pass 4 items to the page that is called.
The Column Link area allows you to specify 3 items. How do people normally accomplish this?
Do you somehow use page zero? Do you use Application Items for this purpose?
Also, can someone recommend a good APEX book to supplement the manuals?
Thanks

Oh Varad I didnt know this, Thanks for a new tip ;)
Just change the target to URL and enter a simple statement
in the URL section
f?p=&APP_ID.:50:&SESSION.:10:&DEBUG.::P50_item1,P50_item2,P50_item3,P50_item4:value1,#column_name2#,#column_name3#,#column_name4#
Use value when u know a fixed value to be passed
and column names on the same report can be passes by using #column_name#
Hope this helps
Thanks

How do I link to a specific part of a page (ie. halfway down)??

How would I create a link that opens in _blank but at a specified point on that new page in the new window? Say for example to go to a certain pic halfway down the link page?

How do you link 2 text boxes in new pages

How do you link two text boxes in the new pages. The old one was much easier to use.

I think this is impossible! Ive been trying today and I couldnt do it. Then I opened up an old document that had text linking in it and I got a message telling me that the text boxes were now unlinked! Why would you remove that? For me this software is now useless. How on earth do I get my old version back?

Link to specific tab on another page but don't anchor

Hello, I used this tutorial to link to a specific tab on another page:
http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/spry_url_utils.php
It works great, except I don't want to go directly to the tabbed panel. I want the particular tab to be active, but the page should load as it normally does. So the user should always be at the top of the page when it loads.
This is the link code:
<a href="registration.html?tab=1#form">
As you can see, #form identifies the tabbed panel, but it also directs the link where to go. I only want to use it as an identifier, not as a navigator as well.
Thank you.

Remove the hash part of the URL parameter and just open the tab in the constructor
<a href="registration.html?tab=1">
var TabbedPanels1 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels1",
{defaultTab: params.tab ? params.tab : 0});
I hope this helps.

Linking to a specific location in a web page is not working

Hello,
I am using anchor tags for linking to a specific location in a web page . This Page contains some images(.bmp).
Eg:
<h2><a name="exactline">Linking Directly to a Specific Location</a></h2>
<a href="http://www.example.com/some-page-or-other.aspx#exactline">Click here</a>
Whenever I click on the link it moves to specific location but when the page get loaded completely , top of the page is being displayed.
My question is how can I make this link redirects directly to the particular section and stays there even after the page loads fully.
Thanks

Hi ,
When you click your link "Click here", the SharePoint web page with anchor will not work until refresh the page, if it's the case, you can add the javascript code to refresh the page automatically as workaround per the following similar post.

http://yalla.itgroove.net/2012/05/anchor-links-tags-in-sharepoint-2010/
<script type="text/javascript">
setTimeout(Reload,2000);
function Reload()
window.location.hash=self.document.location.hash.substring(1);

How do I link to a specific Hero Image from another page?

Hi Laura,
I am afraid that this is not possible in Muse at this stage, I will recommend that you post this on our ideas section over here, https://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas, and let our devs team know of this requirement.
As a work around I will suggest that you create a dedicated page with this panel opened when you publish and link that page with the text that you want. Let me know if you need more clarification on this.

How do I link to a specific frame in the timeline of an Edge document from a different page?

lI have the intro of my new website made in Adobe Edge Animate, however I don't want people to watch the intro every time they click "back". So is there a way of linking directly to a label from another page? Should I use something like:
"<a href="page_URL.com/edge_file.html" target="label_in_the_timeline">"

Hey Squeege,
I highly recommend you becoming familiar with basic javascript syntax (setting variables, functions, scope, if/else statements). Knowing at least the basics really makes Edge Animate come alive, and gives you a lot more power inside the application.
Taking the code from the other thread, you would do something like this, on Stage.compositionReady event:
// function to grab specified param
sym.getParam = function(name) {
    name = name.replace(/[\[]/, "\\\[").replace(/[\]]/, "\\\]");
    var regexS = "[\\?&]" + name + "=([^&#]*)";
    var regex = new RegExp(regexS);
    var results = regex.exec(window.location.href);
    if (results == null)
        return "";
    else
        return results[1];
// get query param called 'param', (should be "true", "false", or leave it out)
var playIntro = sym.getParam('param');
if( playIntro == "true" ) {
     // tell sym to play intro label
     sym.play( "intro" );
}else if( playIntro == "" ) {
     // tell sym to play intro label
     sym.play( "intro" );
}else if( playIntro == "false" ) {
     // tell sym to play skipIntro label
     sym.play( "skipIntro" );

You have created a link to another part of your book but how do you get the reader back to the original page?

Using iBooks Author to make a book you have created a link to another part of your book but how do you get the reader back to the original page?

Asking me to be verbore is a dangerous thing :-)
When you eneter information into iTunes Producer for uploading, the info must match what is in the internal metadata. In this case, the book is called Mississippi, but in iTunes Producer it is spelled Misssissippi. There is an extra "s". This will cause an error.

Personally I think you are going about this all wrong. I believe someone recommended to you in a previous post to look into the HTML5 ( http://forums.adobe.com/thread/874917 ) you need to end up creating the site with Adobe AIR as opposed to the way you are going about doing it. That would be creating an application like Tweetdeck that connects to the internet and uses interactive elements. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air.html
If you want to link a file within a Flash document you would receive a quicker and more in depth answer in the Flash forum as it will require ActionScript.

It sounds like you have a ton of ideas, but your lack of information suggests that 1. you don't have all the knowledge necessary to get the project off the ground and 2. your reluctance to share it suggests that you have an idea that you feel the program is proprietary. Given that this is the case you might be best served looking for an experienced Flash or AIR developer to help get your ideas going in motion. There is nothing wrong with trying to learn but the information you are giving up to go on is very broad and unfortunately it does not appear that you are getting the answers you are looking for.
