Use the <a name=""> attribute in your link I.E.
<a href="testpage.html#F">Got to Section F</a>

and at the start of section F put <a name="F">

Don't forget to put a closing a tag, shortly afterwards (well it can go
at the end of the section, but no other a elements can exist inside).
e.g. .... or you can read the <a href="#instructions">instructions</a>
about how to .....

<h2><a name="instructions">Help instructions</a></h2>

You can also use the id attribute inside an opening tag, but not all
browsers handle that well.

e.g. .... or you can read the <a href="#instructions">instructions</a>
about how to .....

<h2 id="instructions">Help instructions</h2>

My "from" address is totally fake. (Hint: If I wanted e-mails from
complete strangers, I'd have put a real one, there.) Reply to usenet
postings in the same place as you read the message you're replying to.
