It seemed like nobody answered your question, and the thread got off topic. In the Sage notebook using name="" works fine to solve exactly your problem, so I don't know why you say it "doesn't seem to work anyway". If I create one worksheet and put the following in it (as text): <a name="two">Two Theorem</a> then if that worksheet is number 4 (say), i.e., the url is like this: http://localhost:8000/home/admin/4 Then I can jump to the part that says "Two Theorem" from any other worksheet by making a link: <a target="_new" href="../4#two">Go to Two Theorem</a> I like using target="_new" so that the link pops up a new tab, since otherwise people tend to use the back button, which is very bad in the notebook, unfortunately (that the back button causes confusion in the notebook is itself a separate thing that needs to be fixed). > > I'd appreciate any advice, hints or pointers on how to accomplish this > type of cross-worksheet linking with XHTML in the worksheets. Why is XHTML relevant? If you just do the standard thing above in a worksheet it works fine. > Examples of the types of pages I'm planning to convert can be found > starting at http://linear.ups.edu/jsmath/latest/fcla-jsmath-latest.html > The links all have filenames in them which will need to be converted > as well, but they should be easy to parse with sed or a script.
