Hi Christian, You will find some info about this on the Sitepoint HTML reference pages, http://reference.sitepoint.com/html/a/href , read down that page and there is some information about requiring a href reference in the anchor link for IE. Also as I understand it you don't really need id= and name=, use one or the other - they complete the same purpose, although I'm just reading this information from a book and haven't checked the specification per se.
