I'm currently on another forum in which I'm making a rather lengthy thread. I know there's a way to set up links so it'll automatically scroll you to the right spot on the page, much like on this website. You click on the Table of Contents, and it takes you directly to that section.
I'm not sure where to look for this because I can't remember what it's called. I'm not very literate when it comes to html or any sort of coding, so any direction would help.

It's called "anchors"

Thanks for your help ^_^
I think I've figured out how to do them, but they keep on showing up as code on my finished page, rather than what I want them too.
<a href="#Regulars">+2+ Regulars/Mods</A> would be the correct code to use if I wanted something to come up looking like +2+ Regulars/Mods>
Then to get there, I use
<A name="Regulars"></A>Regulars/Mods
The internet has never worked for me. Can anyone help me fix this?

You have to make it forum like.
so instead of <a href=sfks"> you have to use [*url=fdssmsim*]Text Goes Here [*/url*] w/o the stars
<a href="#Regulars"> +2+ Regulars/Mods </a>
<a name="Regulars"> Regulars/Mods </a>

Ok - I've figured out how to set it up so that I can open up a new page with the post I want at the top, by posting http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=threadnumberhere&page=1#pagenumberhere
I tried using ['s instead of <'s, but whenever I try to link it ([url] or [a href]) the whole thing shows up as code again.
I'm not trying to advertize, but the forum I'm on is www.gaiaonline.com . Maybe if you see the thread and what I'm trying to do, you could help me better.

<a href="#Regulars"> +2+ Regulars/Mods </a>
<a name="Regulars"> Regulars/Mods </a>

It's the first thing I tried, and it didn't work.
