Crandall There is some confusion on your end :-).

Both links out (first two p's), to id's in an <h> and a <p>, > do not generate links (<a href="#foo">foo</a>). You are using targets. So you shouldn't use "#"es. This was what Nicolas was trying to tell you. > 2. At both anchors, <a>, in the <h2> and the <p>, the <a> tag > is not closed with an </a>. This may be related to the errors > noted in point one, as the HTML is malformed without them. Put the HTML file in nxml-mode and do C-c C-n. I see no validation errors. The HTML file definitely is not malformed. [Context switch] Here is the modified Org file you should be using. When you are linking to headlines, use CUSTOM_IDs and *not* targets. Links to CUSTOM_IDs have a `#' in front while don't targets are *without* `#'es. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Link and description, to anchor in headline: [[directors][Directors]] Link and description, to anchor in paragraph: [[bc][BC]] * <<directors>> Directors Paragraph with a /dedicated target/: <<bc>> * Headline wiith CUSTOM_ID :PROPERTIES: :CUSTOM_ID: director-1 :END: #+target: invisible * Recommendation about using links Always link to headline using [[#director-1][Headline wiith CUSTOM_ID]]. Use targets when you want to jump to obscure location [[bc]]. Never use [[invisible][Invisible target]]. They will disappear on export. For more information on how links are structured see the [[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-02/msg00752.html][this post]]. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Btw, thanks for your patience and sticking it out right through to the end.
