can anyone help with a syntax check! /?

i would like to add page position anchors into various pages.
1. the destination anchor is within the same page where the link-goto is activated
2. the destination anchor is on another page (at specific location)
(eg; top1, mid1, bot1)

for link-goto's on the same page

the anchor code i've written is
<a name="top_CoUs1"><font size="1" color="#FBFCFD">Top</font></a>
<a name="pur1"><font color="#FBFCFD">pur1</font></a>
etc

the link-goto does not work as i want it too.

i did write
<a href="#pur1"><strong>Making A Purchase</strong> </a>
but this sent me to the homepage
-> http://wwwurl/store/#pur1

i added the page ref,
<a href="wwwurl/store/index.php?main_page=conditions#pur1"><strong>Making A Purchase</strong> </a>
although this keeps you on same page but it does not locate the position #pur1
other than jump a line or two when in a list of similar link-goto's.

for relocation to top of page i inserted into the text
<a href="http://wwwurl/store/index.php?main_page=conditions#PoPs_top_CoUs1">Go To Top </a>
this appears to work as intended!

to sumise; the link-goto-into-text does not work but the link-goto-top-from-text does.

once i have this solved i would like to call/link to other specific paragraphs on other pages with knowledge i am not generating a huge error log!
this works visually, but is it correct?!
<a href="wwwurl/store/index.php?main_page=privacy#pur2"><strong>Before Making A Purchase</strong> </a>
and located this in the other page
<a href="#pur2"><strong>Registering Before Making A Purchase</strong> </a>
