Question one: <br />
<br />
How to you make links that link to other places on a page. i.e.)The page is REALLY long but at the top they have a link that goes to a certain section on that page. How do you do that?<br />
<br />
Question two:<br />
<br />
I want to make a text box that other people can comment in freely. How exactly do you do that?<br />
<br />
Thank you for all of your help! <br />
<br />
Best wishes,<br />

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.annabella.net/links.html">http://www.annabella.net/links.html</a><!-- m --><!--content-->What end result do you wish to obtain with the comments box? Do you want the comments e-mailed to you, simply listed (ie: a guestbook), private, etc?<br />
<br />
You'll need to use a scripting language such as ASP or PHP, and if you want to obtain these comments in the future (other than having them e-mailed to you) you'll need a database or a smaller way could be to use a text file.<br />

Basically, it's like a form only it's visible on the main page. It doesn't have a page of it's own. That basic outline of it is:<br />
<br />
Rectangle box with the comments of visitors<br />
<br />
Smaller rectangle box where visitors input their comments<br />
<br />
A submit button.<br />
<br />
I saw it before somewhere and I had no idea how they did it. <br />
<br />
I hope this helps! And thank you!!<br />

Bay<!--content-->So it sounds like you want to do something similar to what Dan has done in steelerfan88's recommendation.<br />
<br />
Now you have to decide if you want to control the user's comments with a database or a text file. The example from above uses a text file right now, so I recommend taking a look at his code.<!--content-->You're welcome. Good luck.<!--content-->Yes...it is just like steelerfan88's recommendation. I'm going to go read that thread completely now.<br />
