Here's how I do it in BBEdit 10: 1) select word 2) Command+Ctrl+A to bring up floating "anchor tag" editor. 3) type 'h' to get 'href' in the first drop down 4) press Tab 5) type the URL I wish to link to 6) press Tab 7) type 'i' to get 'id' 8) press Tab 9) type in the name/identifier for this anchor 10) press Tab 11) type 't' to get 'tab order' 12) … etc I can still interact with background windows (to copy a URL for example). This works fine for me, and behaves much better than floating modal dialog boxes which stop me editing any other document. I can see that it would make more sense for anchor tags to have "href" as the first element by default, but what if you weren't making a link and you wanted a "name" instead? I used anchor tags for targets more often than I used them for hrefs. Alex
