Linking within a Wiki Page

bill_morgenthien

I co-maintain a shared campaign with a group of other DMs. We've been re-organizing our Wiki for our next season of play and we're running into an organizational problem. Our wiki pages are getting longer and we often need links to sections within the page (such as to specific headings.) 

1. We've set aside blocks for intra-page links


2. We've flagged the ID of various sections such as using <div id="example">


3. We've created links using straight HTML. The URL fed to the browser looks valid /wikis/page#example


4. Yet when the links are clicked, the only change is the URL in the browser. Both when called from within the page, or referenced from another page.

Is there something I'm missing or a trick within Textile/Redcloth?

OP doesn't let you make use of id's for your divs. You have to stick with classss.

Like Kallak said you'll need to use classes instead of IDs

Here is an example of the code.

and you can see it used here

Thanks. That was what I was looking for.

Yea, very handy to do as well, I use it in my Dragon Age campaign in a few places to make it easier to access specific content.

Yeah, I use this little trick a LOT.

Yeah, that's why I always link to your campaign as an example of it in action.
