repost: Anchor Names in ASP

AC
Trying to get anchor names to work - a simple html
concept - why so difficult?

original post:
Ok, I know in html to jump to different parts of the same
page you simply use anchor name tags. You place the
naming of a section (i.e. <a name="spot1"></a>) in the
html at the spot you want to name.

Well, in asp, .net places the html code in no particular
order using absolute positioning to tell the browser where to put everything. How then do I place the name tag in
the right spot if nothing else is in order? I cant use top or left in the name tag... this is bugging me.
