Anchor Links

Hello,

Is it possible to create anchor links on forms? To have a button that will bring you down to a specific spot further down the form?

Thanks

  • Yes.  You can make an anchor tag as a Rich Text formula field like this and position it on the form near where you want to land the user.

    "<a name=DealerClaim></a>"

    Then suffix the URL that you are coming from with the #TagName

    such as URLRoot() & "db/" & dbid() & "?a=dr&rid=" & [Record ID#​] & "#DealerClaim"​

      I was just told by QB support that Anchor points (no longer?) work on legacy forms, but do work on New Forms.

      I can confirm that the anchor tags are not working on a legacy form that I have, where I tried them.

      FYI

        I have Anchor links that are still working to jump to a spot in a long form.
