i'll need to look into the status of javascript and embeds with an engineer. as for anchor tags, i just created an item with an anchor tag with no problem so i'm a bit unclear on what you're trying to do..

Sorry Jeff, I should have said TAG NAMES, not Anchor names. My bad. I'm not sure exactly "how" to say it.

To allow people to link to an arbitrary point on my web pages -- My Archive Items, in this case -- an Admin like myself would require the privilege to do the following:

Create the tags < A NAME="TAGNAME" > arbitrary point < /A > using HTML coding to link to the desired point on my pages.

I would like to create a bookmark inside a document, by using the name attribute. Then Admins like me would create links inside MY Items by doing this HTML coding:

< A HREF="Archive-dot-org/Item_name#TAGNAME" >click here for the exact arbitrary point on my web page< /A >.

For the time being, TAGNAME TAGS are getting stripped when I submit them to the Meta Data editor's description or notes fields in My Items. I can only anchor a link to the TOP of my web pages. Some web pages are lengthy. Use of Tag Names makes browsing very efficient - for both readers AND web designers.

it was an engineering decision. not being an engineer here that's the best explanation i have at this point.
