I'm sure you happened to meet links on same page. Most common text for this is "Back to Top". When you click it, your screen will display top part of page you are viewing. These kind of links also often used on Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page. There's menu on top and whole descriptions below it. Another function is when you have footnotes, you can easily make links to your footnotes.

To do this, follow the steps:

1. Make an ANCHORNAME like this:
<a name="any name here">left it blank</a>
Put that code on top/same line of text you want to point.

For this example, I will point to words "To do this, follow the steps:"
<a name="todo"></a>
So I will put ANCHORNAME on top of those words.

2. Publish your post. This step to get the permalink/URL page of your post. View your post and copy its address. You're going to use it later.

3. Edit again your post.

4. Make a link name point at your anchor name. Here the example:
<a href="http://toncibro.blogspot.com/2008/06/hot-to-make-links-on-same-page.html#todo">Back to Top</a>
Link to your ANCHORNAME is URL + #anchor name.

Click link below to see how it works.

Back to Top

Little different code works on wordpress but not on blogger is like this:
<a href="http://toncibro.blogspot.com/2008/06/hot-to-make-links-on-same-page/#todo">Back to Top</a>
See the difference, also URL + #anchor name but written with "/" and no ".something".

Don't try this at your home.
