通过<a>标签</a>重定向到链接<a>，而不是href属性？</a>

Question

I have a form and a link. Instead of the link being something on the screen to click, I'd like to just go to it. I've tried redirecting to "#" or setting the form action to "#". But it does not seem to work. I need a method of opening or redirecting to a link by <a> or by its ID.

<form method="post" name="form">
    Name search:
    <input id="ui" type="text" name="ui" />
    <input type="submit" class="Submit" value="submit" />
</form>

$ui = $_POST["ui"];

<a href="#" id="gallery_filter"
          data-filter=".<?php echo $ui; ?>"><?php echo $ui; ?></a>

Answer 1

To link to an a tag that is being used as an anchor (marking a point on the page), you can use the id preceeded by a # :

<form method="post" name="form" action="my_page.php#gallery_filter">
  ...
</form>

<a id="gallery_filter">Without an href, this is an anchor not a link.</a>

You can't submit a form to a url that is only an anchor (eg action="#gallery_filter" ), but if you add it to the end of the URL then the browser will navigate to it correctly.
