Don't use <A> at all for this. Assign the ID to the HTML element to
which you actually want HREFs to lead. For example, instead of
<a id="summary"></a>
<h2>Summary</h2>
<p>...</p>
use
<h2 id="summary">Summary</h2>
<p>...</p>
This won't work in prehistoric versions of Netscape and IE, but if
you're determined to use XHTML you probably don't care much whether it
works in those browsers anyway.
