The attribute "name" allows you to link to specific places within the page, via the <a> tag.
This is especially useful in long pages that can be separated into sections. You can create a named anchor in each of these section headings to provide "jump-to" functionality. In other words, you can have a different URL for each piece of content on the same page.
<h2><a name="get-started"></a>Get Started</h2>Figure: This is how you add an anchor name to an specific section of your page. Note it doesn't have the hash mark and the anchor tag is empty
You now have a custom URL that points to the specific section of the page. It is the page URL followed by the hashtag plus the name you chose:
yourpage.com#get-started
Figure: This is how your custom URL will look like
You can use this new URL to point users to that specific section of your page.
To create a link to your anchor named section inside the same page, simply add a new "href" anchor tag - now with a hash mark followed by the name you chose:
<a href="#get-started">Go to Get Started section</a>Figure: This is how you add a link to that anchor name you created inside the same page. Remember to add the hashtag
Tip: Use a hashtag alone to link to the top of a page. E.g. <a href="#">&Go to top</a>
