insert an anchor in jsp

[Former Member]

Hello !

I would insert an anchor in a jsp to view it on particular place.

I've inserted in "page.jsp" :<a name="test"/>

I called my jsp in JSPDynPage like :

"page.jsp#test"

But it doesn't work...

Could you help me please ?

Thanks.

Hi,

I sometimes switched to using Javascript, which solved the problem. e.g. <a href="#" onclick="somemethod()">

where somemethod() would reload the page/frame with someurls#someanchor.

good luck!

thanks to your response but I never do really JavaScript. I've only some notions.

Could you me help to write somemethod() ?

Thanks.

Hi,

You insert something like this somewhere in your jsp:

<script  language="Javascript">
function somemethod() {
    this.location.href='someurl#someanchor';
}
</script>

It is not tested.

If you have Javascript errors, look for a yellow triangle in the left bottom of your screen (double click it). In Firefox there is a javascript console.

Some Javascript resources/references:

www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp

javascript-reference.info

javascript.about.com/od/reference

Good luck,
