I'm looking to create a URL to a certain paragraph on an existing web page. However I don't manage the web site I want to link to, so I can't add any anchors in its HTML code.

Is there any way to direct a URL to a specific HTML tag? Kind of like JavaScript's document.getElementsByTagName()[n].

Thanks

I don't think there is, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong as this would be *really* helpful. Good question! – domsson Jul 10 '17 at 14:09

Short answer: no – ADreNaLiNe-DJ Jul 10 '17 at 14:09
If the element you want to link to has no ID or named anchor then you're out of luck – j08691 Jul 10 '17 at 14:09
