between docs in OOo but once you try to use HTML to link, it doesn't
jump to the bookmark. Perhaps the browser doesn't understand? My
install of OOo is on a laptop that only has IE... been meaning to put on
a different browser!
Not terribly helpful but at least you know we didn't ignore you :)
Thanks Walter. Good to know.
I tried it with Firefox and IE and neither works. I am thinking that the
anchor (#bookmark) gets lots through the open/save as dialog. Is there a
way to launch OO as a plugin within the browser (like acrobat)?

Manfred,
I have a question for you. How can any browser open and locate a
specific entry when the basic structure of the file is a zipfile?
I am not aware of any browser that can do that. Are you?
The browser does not have to actually get to the bookmark in the open
office file. The browser just has to offer the open file dialog and pass
the anchor at the end of the url on to the program opening the file.
In our case with eg. http://somedomain/documentname.odt#bookmarkname
the browser open the open/save as dialog for documentname.odt. At this
stage the #bookmarkname is not visible. I would hope (but dont know)
that it is passed on though and therefore open office would receive the
#bookmarkname and be able to jump to like it would when linked between
open office documents (which does work).
The problem is that I do not know if firefox passes anchor on to oo and
I cant tell if OO does anything with it in case it receives it.
Maybe I should ask on a firefox forum as well. Does anybody know if it
works with a pdf file and a bookmark in it? I *think* I have seen that
before.... I will check it out.
