HTML <a> Tag

To use an id in a link, you can create an anchor link within the same HTML document by referencing the id attribute of the target element. This allows you to create a link that, when clicked, will scroll to a specific section on the same page. Here's how to use the id in a link:

Set an id attribute on the target element you want to link to. For example, let's assume you have a section with an id attribute set as "section1":

Create the link that will navigate to the target section. Use the # symbol followed by the id value as the href attribute value. For example:

In the code above, when the "Go to Section 1" link is clicked, it will scroll the page to the section with the id attribute set as "section1". The browser will automatically handle the scrolling behavior.

It's important to ensure that the id value is unique within the HTML document. This ensures that the link accurately navigates to the intended target section.

You can use this technique to create internal page navigation, where users can easily jump to specific sections within a long page or navigate between different sections on the same page.

Remember to adjust the id value and the corresponding href value to match the actual id attribute of the target element you want to link to.
