<p> Hey i dont understand how to do Link to Internal Sections of a Page with Anchor Elements please help
Hi @epartney27 !
Welcome to the forum!
I am only seeing bits and pieces of your code.
In order to better assist you it would help to see the entire code.
If you have a question about a specific challenge as it relates to your written code for that challenge, just click the Ask for Help button located on the challenge. It will create a new topic with all code you have written and include a link to the challenge also. You will still be able to ask any questions in the post before submitting it to the forum.
Thank you.
a ( anchor ) elements can also be used to create internal links to jump to different sections within a webpage.
To create an internal link, you assign a link’s href attribute to a hash symbol # plus the value of the id attribute for the element that you want to internally link to, usually further down the page. You then need to add the same id attribute to the element you are linking to. An id is an attribute that uniquely describes an element.
Below is an example of an internal anchor link and its target element:
<a href="#contacts-header">Contacts</a>
...
<h2 id="contacts-header">Contacts</h2>
When users click the Contacts link, they’ll be taken to the section of the webpage with the Contacts header element.
Change your external link to an internal link by changing the href attribute to "#footer" and the text from cat photos to Jump to Bottom .
Remove the target="_blank" attribute from the anchor tag since this causes the linked document to open in a new window tab.
Then add an id attribute with a value of footer to the <footer> element at the bottom of the page.

<p id="footer">I am the destination of the link</p>
<footer>Footer</footer>
What did i do wrong
You keep putting the id of footer here
But it is supposed to go inside here
this footer element stil doesn’t have an id, you have also changed its content which may cause tests to fail
Im just trying to learn code I have NO experance other than the other lessons i dont know what im doing sooo
i dont know WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT
Take this id here
and move it into here
<footer <!--ID goes in here-->>
Does that make sense?
