links and anchors

links and anchors

[Rustom Mody]

Context is html export

I have a file of quotes like the following
------------------
* Declarative vs Imperative
Never tell people  how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will
surprise you with their ingenuity  \\
General G.S.Patton (1941)
-----------------
which I link from another file

Now if
1. I put the anchor <<declarative>> inside the body then the header
vanishes on following the link
2. If I write it as
* Declarative and Imperative <<declarative>>
it works well but the header looks ugly at least in org though not on export
3. Looking at the generated html I see the autogenerated sec-9 for
that para can be used.  But then Ive to keep synced with what is
auto-generated.

What do people use for this situation?

Did you try custom-id? See section 4.2 in manual.
