Hi Doug, That was a great clue.
I took the link from your sample: <a xlink:href='http://svg-whiz.com/samples.html#animation'> and stuck it in my SCG file, and it worked like a dream (found your web page; found the corresponding <H2 id=animation>Animation. But when I saved your samples.html to my file system, and changed the the link to a file link: <a xlink:href='file://C:/Documents and Settings/bryans/Desktop/SVG-wishList/samples.html#animation'> It went back to the same behavior as before. IE finds and opens the file, but only to the top of the page, not to the correct spot in the html file: <H2 id=animation>Animation I tried several different absolute and relative paths, to no avail. Maybe xlink:href only works with http. This would be a setback. Thanks very much for your clue. If you have further thoughts, I'd love to hear them.
