What is the code for a link to a specific part of another page? Thanks.

The link:
<a href="otherpage.html#foo">link text</a>

The other page:
<a name="foo">anchor</a>
or
<h1 id="foo">heading</h1>

name is supported by all browsers, id si supported by all modern
browsers (even IE). You don't need to use <h1>, almost any element can
take an id.

If the other page is not under control and if there are no names or ids
already in it then you can't link to specific regions.
