FAQs page
This is a basic web page with no layout grids or tables. The only template features used here are Named anchors and Horizontal rules. It is however the most common structure for an FAQs page--structured as an anchored list. If you don't have the time to create such a page, select save in the file menu and save this page into your public_html folder. Change any link titles to suit your own web page, but don't change the anchor tags (e.g. whatever is written after the hash symbol: #top, #ans1, #ans2). In this way you will be able to make the same page work on your own site.

To make such a page you need to
- insert an anchor at the top (call it top)
- create a bullet list of question or topic titles as a menu
- duplicate the titles below in the body so answers correspond with questions
- insert an anchor for each answer line in the body and give them sequential names (e.g. ans1, ans2, etc.)
- link the questions in the menu to the titles in the body. To do this select link and link to the same page you are working on and then add a hash symbol (#) followed by the anchor title (this page is faqs.html and all menu items are linked to faqs.html#anchor-title)
- create a top anchor at the top of the page and then create a top link underneath each answer in the body. Link it as before, but this time using #top as the anchor suffix
- you can copy and paste the top link as many times as you want to save manually linking
