>> Good afternoon everyone,
>>
>>    Now is as good a time as any to ask this question. I have an archive
>> I'm
>> creating which will be added to several Web sites I'm working on over the
>> next few months. It concerns a seminar I've been asked to prepare for
>> publishing on the Web. The seminar included an afternoon and an evening
>> session and a fantastic line-up of speakers. In addition to the audio
>> files
>> of individual presentations text transcripts will be produced and listed
>> on
>> an archive page for this seminar. To simplify things I want to include 
>> the
>> line-ups for each session on a single archive page and want to enable
>> visitors to select the session they wish to view or listen to from 
>> another
>> page. This is taking named anchors to the next level.
>>
>>    I've visited Web sites containing a large page divided in to various
>> content sections. Visitors can link to a specific section on this page
>> from
>> the site's home page. In other words rather than create separate pages 
>> for
>> each topic all topics are placed on a, "Master page" and visitors can 
>> link
>> to a particular section from the site's home page rather than landing at
>> the
>> top of the master page.
>>
>>    In my example when the, "Convention round-up" page is visited one
>> encounters links allowing them to access the agenda for session 1, or
>> session 2 on the seminar archive page. If someone wants to read or listen
>> to
>> a particular presentation given during session 2 they would select the
>> link
>> for session 2 from the round-up page. Rather than landing at the top of
>> the
>> seminar archive page they would land on the heading for session 2 from
>> where
>> they can search for the presentation of interest without having to land 
>> at
>> the top of the archive page.
>>
>>    Again I've seen this done on a number of Web sites I have visited, but
>> need to have the code to make it happen. I would appreciate some code
>> samples in order to do this. Thanks in advance for help on this one.
