I'm looking to link to a page on a 3rd party site with a heavy amount of content, but want the reader to head half way down and read from there. Yes, I could specifically tell them to, but sometimes it's not always ideal. If I can't find any element with a name or id attribute in the general location, is there any other method? Thanks!
