Hi Mari,

I have notice that you are using target="_blank" for internal page links as
wel. remove that attribute from links to navigate within page.

<a
href="#Mainpagewithinstructions-Step2-SetuptheWSO2ComplexEventProcessor(CEP)"
*target="_blank"*>Step 2 - Setup the WSO2 Complex Event Processor (CEP)</a>
