HTML jump to content by links in nav column [duplicate]

Question

in the navigation column on the left of this site: https://github.com/orderedlist/minimal

(which is implemented as
<ul>
<li><a href="... I would really like to be able to add jump links, so that clicking on one of them scrolls the right column.

That way, on the left, users click on a topic and the part on the right jumps/scrolls to that content. Can this be done without fuzz or hassle (like installing a different theme).

Answer 1

you can target the href attribute to the section that you want by simply targeting the id of the element

for example:

<li><a href="#column2">click me to jump to column 2</a></li>

<div id="column2">section 2</div>
