I got it. If I'm visiting a page like this: http://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html#the-python-tutorial 1) To read the page, I'm scrolling down. 2) When I have finished to read the page, I scroll up (or scroll back/up) to the top of the page until I see this "feature" and the title. 3) I click on this "feature". 4) The title, already visible, moves, let's say, "2cm" higher. ...? Having a pilcrow to signal or to display an end of paragraph is one thing. Using a pilcrow as a link seems to me very strange. Especially if the target of that link has nothing to with paragraph, but with "section"! jmf -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
