    Can I put a named anchor tag at an image location?
    Something like this:

    Code:
    <A name="NKmessage"><IMG alt="" src="/xxxx/Gord.jpg"> </A>
    Or do you absolutely have to have text in the anchor tag?

    Sure you can use "name" in an anchor tag without anchor text, but if you don't use href then some older browsers may not react to a # href within another link.

    I tried it using IE and when I try the url that has the "#NKmessage" at the end I simply end up at the top of the page.

    The two lines of :
    Code:
    <a name="img"><img src="something.jpg" alt="something"></a>
    And then

    Code:
    <a href="#img">Back to image</a>
    Worked for me in IE 7, Firefox and whatever the internal browser in HTML Kit is based on.
