Need Help Putting "Jumps" In My Posts

Hi there,

I don't exactly know what the right term is, but basically, I want to put "jumps" in my post. Let me describe what I want to do:

I use blogger. On the front page, I have 4-5 posts, but some are too long (and take up most of the page). In the case of these long posts, I don't want the entire post to appear on the front page. I would like to have a "More after the jump" link in between my post, that opens the post in a new page, and continues with the rest of post. That way, on the front page, you could see half the post and you could click the "More" link to see the rest of the post (hopefully repetition got my point across).

Does anyone know how to do this using html?

Thanks, I appreciate it.That is called a "page anchor". It is similar to a hyperlink. Basically, where you 'start' from, you add "<a href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"#name">Jump to</a>" whereby "#name" will be the'target' (the rest of your text, further down the page).
For the 'target', you add "<a name="name"></a>" whereby "name" is the word or words used in the "#name".
