Answer 1

You'll need to no the x / y position of the section on page 2 but look at this:

Should work provided you have those details.

Answer 2

in page 1 you should have a link (anchor tag) to page 2

<a href="page2.html#yoursection">

in page 2 you need to have a tag with id="yoursection" eg

<div id="yoursection">

that should work
