Page jump anchors disappear

If you want that to link to “Opening Address by Bill Rosenblatt”, the code must be:
<a name="opening"></a>Opening Address by Bill RosenblattTotally irrelevant to that: your html includes lots of junk. For instance, several cases of this:
<span style="font-weight:bold;"> </span>
Or this:
<img alt="" /><img alt="" /> -
Thanks, this worked. FYI, some of the “junk” tags are from MS Word where this document originated. It looks fine so I don’t want to bother stripping them out.
