HTML

• The following formula was used for linkage as far as HTML version 4:

  <a name="whatever"></a>

  We would create an anchor for a link like this, for instance:

  <h1><a name="whatever">My Page</a></h1>

• The use of the name attribute has been deprecated for this purpose in favor of the id attribute.
• It has even been eliminated now from the newest version of HTML, that is HTML version 5.
