Not all of the links on a web page necessarily need to go to other pages on the web. Sometimes it is convenient to be able to place a series of links at the top and/or bottom of the page that will take people to a point part way down the current web page. To do this means both marking the spot where you want the link to jump to as well as using a special code in the link to identify that it needs to link to part way down the page and not the top of the page as is usually the case.
