On another VSD forum a user posted the same question. I made an example webside that shows the use of anchors with very little HTML within VSD and some other nice things with (also very little) javascript here: www.johnvanhulst.com/anchors . You can download the VSD design that makes it all possible there too. Have fun!

I finally got a Back to the top entered on my page using

<a name="top"></a> (at the top of the page)
<a href="#top">Back to top</a> (at the bottom of the page.

I don't like the appearance of the Back to top blue underlined link. Is there a way to use the Object or Shapes tool to dress this up. Where would I enter the html code?


You don't need HTML code! Just place an object (an arrow?) on the page where you want the "back to top" functionality, and, using the link function, make a link from this object to the same page as where you placed the object. It's that simple. See it in action here: www.johnvanhulst.com/anchors . Click on one of the anchor links and then on the 'home' arrow. Have fun.

I have a gallery built with the titles, dates and links to several corresponding album pages. But, at the bottom of the gallery page is the Form (Builder) to upload their pictures to add the albums.

Is there a way to put a link back to the bottom of the gallery page form?

Addendum:

Is there a way to put a link back to the bottom of the gallery page form? I meant on each and every album page as a reminder to add their photos.

Yes, what you are looking to do is create and anchor inside of your document. Unfortunately that is not an option in VSD at this time.


Does the newer VSD have this now? I have titles at the top of the page using the Object Button Text. I would like to click the title to jump to the corresponding title within the page.
