I have been using anchor tags for awhile now and have never (until now) encountered any problems. Now however, I've placed them on a page and the tags are not working at all? I've gone through all of the other site pages that I've used them in and the only difference I can tell is that the new site is using CSS <div id=""> tags. Now, could there be a conflict with these two that I should know about? I'm using the regular anchor tag: <a href="#name"></a> and <a name="name"></a>.
Thank you;
Greg

The div shouldn't matter unless you have an element name or id that's the same.
Try this for grins and giggles.
You can also use any emement the id name to go there

<a name="name"> </a>
You can also use any emement the id name to go there
<div id="name"><p>hello</p></div>
<h1 id="name">hello</h1>
<h1 id="name">hello</h1>

Oh, for the love of .... I didn't see the space in the other tags I looked at! Didn't use the nbsp though either
Geez, thank you Tony. I really appreciate the help. Thought I was losing it there for a bit.
