I am using Publisher 2003 to build my first internet site. I see that a common practice for long pages is to provide a hyperlink from the top of the page to other sections further down on the page (less need for scrolling by the reader). I don't see how to set this up with Publisher 2003. Is it possible and how do you do it?

It's not natively supported, you have to custom code it, use the article

Many thanks for the advice. The code works great.

Actually, Publisher 2000 sticks some position tags in on its own (not
sure about 2003). If you want to refer to them, you just have to put
in the link to do it. I believe it automatically puts in a "top" and
"bootom" tag on every page it converts to html. I use them to go to
the bottom of several long pages on my site.

Yes 2000 does that, which is indicated on my 2000 version of that article.
As of 2002 that is no longer the case.
