Can you make a link so that when you click on it the new page opens but in the middle? Usually when you click on a link the linked page opens at the top...can you make it so that it opens half way down? Like to a specific location?

    Yes..it's referred to or was back in the day as a 'bookmark'

    Where you want the link to open .... <a name="anchor1" id="anchor1">Anchor text</a>

    Then second, you create the link to the section using the anchor tag (a) and the href attribute. You indicate the named area with a pound-sign (#). e.g.

    Link to click....<a href="page.html#anchor1">Anchor link</a>

    The trick to this is to make sure that you have put the <a name> around text or an image.

    Use anchor tags and hypertext with anchor links. Easily possible provided you have access to the code of the target page as well. Otherwise it may be more advanced coding

    Here is a sample...

    Let's say the file where the link located is page1.html

    page1.html

    <a href="page2.html#middle">Clickable Text</a>

    page2.html - this is the file to be open when you click the link we created from page1.html

    <a name="middle">Enter the text here where it shows when the link from page1.html click</a>

    position the <a name> tag in your page that you want to show when the link in page1.html is click
