    Reference Book, Chapter, Line

    http://freetutorials.name/Reference1/King James/Old Testament/02_001.htm
    -
    1:5 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt [already]. Gen. 46:26,27
    Note: the reference at the end of the line

    Source Code:
    <b>1:5</b> And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for <a href="#Joseph">Joseph</a> was in Egypt [already].
    <font size="-1"><a href="01_046.htm">Gen. 46:26,27</a></font><br>

    Note: 01 = Genesis 046 = Chapter 46
    How can I reference line 26 so I can link it in Exodus [02_001] or the first chapter in Exodus.
    I can reference the book and chapter but do not know how to reference the line

    Sorry, been a while since I last did HTML; I'm not sure why it's not working - I think if the target is viewable on the page when you click the anchor, it doesn't move. Perhaps try with a line lower down on the page? Not sure. Perhaps someone else can chime in here?

    Same problem here, I forgot. I have used same page a lot, as shown. And other pages as shown, but the line is a problem. The need is obvious.

    Is your HTML document HTML5? If so don't use name, but id as your anchor attribute. Even if it's HTML4 it's better to use id instead of name as it has a priority in lookup order with the DOM.

    The # symbol always needs to be used, behind the URL if it's outside the current page. No need to add a URL if it's on the same page.

    When you omit part of the URL the direction is always going to be relative to the current page. Also it's best not to use blank spaces in your URL's as some older OS/browsers may have problems with it, use a - instead.

    It is also unsafe to use according to the Internet Engineering Task Force in the RFC 1738 document, it is stated as the following :
    Here is a document with multiple anchor links:
    HTML:
    <!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Anchor Links</title>
</head>

<p>You are the last hope of the universe. Bender, being God isn't easy. If you do too much, people get dependent on you, and if you do nothing, they lose hope. You have to use a light touch. Like a safecracker, or a pickpocket. Yeah. Give a little credit to our public schools. You don't know how to do any of those. You don't know how to do any of those. Oh, I don't have time for this. I have to go and buy a single piece of fruit with a coupon and then return it, making people wait behind me while I complain.</p>

<h2 id="parasites">Parasites Lost</h2>
<p>Stop it, stop it. It's fine. I will 'destroy' you! For example, if you killed your grandfather, you'd cease to exist! It's okay, Bender. I like cooking too.</p>

<ul> <li>Bender?! You stole the atom.</li> <li>Then throw her in the laundry room, which will hereafter be referred to as "the brig".</li> </ul>
<h3 id="clone">A Clone of My Own</h3>
<p>Man, I'm sore all over. I feel like I just went ten rounds with mighty Thor. Leela's gonna kill me. Oh Leela! You're the only person I could turn to; you're the only person who ever loved me.</p>

<h4 id="emotion">I Second That Emotion</h4>
<p>Now what? And remember, don't do anything that affects anything, unless it turns out you were supposed to, in which case, for the love of God, don't not do it! Oh God, what have I done? WINDMILLS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOOD NIGHT! Oh, how awful. Did he at least die painlessly? &hellip;To shreds, you say. Well, how is his wife holding up? &hellip;To shreds, you say.</p>
<ol> <li>I had more, but you go ahead.</li> <li>Hey, whatcha watching?</li> <li>You don't know how to do any of those.</li> <li>You don't know how to do any of those.</li> </ol> <h5>War Is the H-Word</h5>
<p>Fry, you can't just sit here in the dark listening to classical music. I just want to talk. It has nothing to do with mating. Fry, that doesn't make sense. Ugh, it's filthy! Why not create a National Endowment for Strip Clubs while we're at it? Fry, we have a crate to deliver. Hey, whatcha watching? We need rest. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised.</p>

<h1 id="lesser">Lesser of Two Evils</h1>
<p>And remember, don't do anything that affects anything, unless it turns out you were supposed to, in which case, for the love of God, don't not do it! I just told you! You've killed me! OK, if everyone's finished being stupid. Aww, it's true. I've been hiding it for so long. We don't have a brig.</p>
<h2 id="bicyclops">A Bicyclops Built For Two</h2>
<p>WINDMILLS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOOD NIGHT! Why yes! Thanks for noticing. We're rescuing ya.</p>
<ul> <li>I'm sure those windmills will keep them cool.</li> <li>Fry! Quit doing the right thing, you jerk!</li> <li>You don't know how to do any of those.</li> <li>Good news, everyone! There's a report on TV with some very bad news!</li> </ul> <h3>The Cyber House Rules</h3>
<p>Then we'll go with that data file! I guess because my parents keep telling me to be more ladylike. As though! But I know you in the future. I cleaned your poop.</p>
<h4>A Clone of My Own</h4>
<p>You know, I was God once. Large bet on myself in round one. Who said that? SURE you can die! You want to die?! Good news, everyone! I've taught the toaster to feel love! This is the worst part. The calm before the battle.</p>
<ol> <li>That's the ONLY thing about being a slave.</li> <li>Hey, guess what you're accessories to.</li> <li>Oh, how awful. Did he at least die painlessly? &hellip;To shreds, you say. Well, how is his wife holding up? &hellip;To shreds, you say.</li> <li>I just told you! You've killed me!</li> </ol> <h5>The Birdbot of Ice-Catraz</h5>
<p>Now what? I just want to talk. It has nothing to do with mating. Fry, that doesn't make sense. Oh, I don't have time for this. I have to go and buy a single piece of fruit with a coupon and then return it, making people wait behind me while I complain.</p>

<p>Oh, but you can. But you may have to metaphorically make a deal with the devil. And by "devil", I mean Robot Devil. And by "metaphorically", I mean get your coat. Can we have Bender Burgers again? Bender, being God isn't easy. If you do too much, people get dependent on you, and if you do nothing, they lose hope. You have to use a light touch. Like a safecracker, or a pickpocket.</p>

<p>Fry, we have a crate to deliver. Oh God, what have I done? Oh, I think we should just stay friends.</p>

    If you still can't get it to work give me the exact page and code line number from which you're trying to place an anchor link. I can then tell you how to do it correctly.

    There you go, thanks Mimoun. I didn't know you could use ID rather than name for the anchor - good to know.

    Unfortunately, it did not work for me. I must have errored somewhere.
