Can anyone give me a hint as to how to do this.

When someone clicks on a link I want to spawn a separate page and position
to an embedded anchor within that page.  That bit I think I can do.
However, if they refocus on the original page and click on a different link,
I want to position to the appropriate link in _the_same_ spawned page - not
create yet another one.  If I can do it without JavaScript that would be
preferable but if not ....
No need to use JavaScript:  Just use the "target" attribute in the
anchor tag.  Two anchors with the same target name (other than one
of the predefined target names) will open the link in the same new
window.  Here's a web page describing this in more detail:
