So this should answer your question:

For correct coding see this post of mine:

I see these pages are html, not xhtml.

b) Viewing the sourcecode of this page I can see what you tried to paste, and it's not correct: the a tag isn't a self-closing tag. For correct coding see this post of mine:

The new line characters of course arent there. Maybe this works better:
<a />

I have a page with anchors like <a name="123" />.
This worked fine in some pages, but in a new page all text after this anchor is not displayed. What causes this and what can I do about it?

When writing them, I normally set up page jumps – eg. "Click here to skip to the section about XYZ."

But when the posts are published, the links still function but the coding for the anchor points, ie. <a>text</a> has disappeared.

Why? And what can I do about it?
