Link target ID not found Error

Description

This link is broken. The target anchor does not exist or is commented out.

Help

The anchor after the # symbol points to a non-existent id on the target page. If the anchor link targets the same page nothing will happen when it’s clicked. If the anchor link targets another page, then the top of the target page will be displayed instead of the intended location. In most cases the destination anchor has been removed accidentally and should be reinstated.
