FAQ's on a website

[Guest]

I notice on alot of site's that have FAQ's, than rather than each answer
being dedicated to one page, all the answers are on a single page, and when
you click on a particular question, it links you to the exact spot on the
page to the correspsonding answer. How is that done?

With hyperlinks

On the page with the answers (say answers.html) each answer is labelled like
this:
<a name="answer1>Answer 1:................</a>
<a name="answer2>Answer 2:................</a>
<a name="answer3>Answer 3:................</a>

Then on the questions page, the links are like this:
<a href ="answers.html#answer1>Question 1:...................</a>
<a href ="answers.html#answer2>Question 2:...................</a>
<a href ="answers.html#answer3>Question 3:...................</a>

Most likely with a database - do you mean something like the Microsoft
Knowledgebase or Symantec's support site?

Way too complicated. The OP is talking about bookmarks.

Look up bookmarks in FP's Help file.

Look for bookmarks in the help files.

OK...bad example.

Anyway there is a "FAQ/Support" page template in Frontpage....I think it is
in all versions - assume it uses bookmarks.
