I need to transfer text with anchor links form node body to a CCK field.

When I did this the anchors are there - but the links are not working.

The url of the node is:
http://www.example.com/en/articles/communication

the anchor link in the node body is
http://www.example.com/en/articles/communication#media

the anchor name is <a name="media">
the anchor link is <a href="#media">Media</a>

the new CCK field is named:
field_article_prem_content

I guess I need to integrate the field name with the anchors name and / or link?

But how - all help welcome - just a bit more detailed for a trying enthusiast - thanks.

I read somewhere on the forum that anchors are not "handled by the server" (apologies for the ambiguity, I am recalling the post from memory). In this case, an individual wanted to use pathauto to change the path of a URL that had an anchor in it. In the end he was unable to do so. Sorry I do not have more information. Perhaps others will.

Thanks, but anchors are working in the body of the node.

So, adding a CCK field to the node should require to add the CCK field address to the anchor?!?

This should be possible and the person with the right know-how might just give us the hint in no time - let's hope for some enlightenment.

I just realized what you are talking about; in this case, you should look at the contemplate module. It will allow you to customize the template for a particular node type, and because you can manipulate the html in the contemplate viewing pane, you can add an anchor to the precise CCK field you want.

Thanks, great hint and I certainly will look at it in more detail - http://drupal.org/project/contemplate

My initial test shows it is not doing what I need.

My problem are anchors inside the "premium" CCK field that holds the bulk and body of the article and will only be visible to the members.

I am not looking for anchors of CCK fields. There is only one CCK field and the anchors are inside this field:
Teaser

In this article - 
Introduction - Marketing - Radio - TV - Newspaper - Media
------------------------------------------

<Introduction>
text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text text text text text text text

Premium CCK field

Marketing - Radio - TV - Newspaper - Media
------------------------------------------

<Marketing>
text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text text text text text text text
<Radio>
text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text text text text text text text
<TV>
text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text text text text text text text
<Newspapers>
text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text text text text text text text
<Media>
text text text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text text text text text text text

What I need is to get the Anchor Links for the items from the teaser to the CCK field
Introduction - Marketing - Radio - TV - Newspaper - Media Anchor and / or to get these anchor links to work in the CCK field.

Well, we will get to the bottom of this eventually .... I hope ....

After testing the Premium module - I think it will be the answer for the task in hand.

However, anchor linking across CCK fields would still be a good think in other situations.
