Hand-picked for quality and usefulness
Ever wanted to share a link, not just to a webpage, but to a particular section of a webpage?
Most of the time, when you see a header on a webpage, it has an ID associated with it. You can use the ID to create a link to that section, but finding the ID usually means viewing the source code for the page, finding the header element for the section you want, and appending the ID to the URL before sharing it.
It doesn't have to be that hard.
CREATING LINKS AUTOMATICALLY
This extension scans the page and generates links for all headers on the page, assuming they have an ID or Name assigned.
Hover over any header, and an anchor link will appear.
Click on the "chain" icon to copy the link to your clipboard.
If there's no ID or Name in the header tag, it will search any elements nested inside the header tag for the first one with an ID or Name assigned. Failing that, it looks at the immediate parent element (i.e. a header nested in a DIV). If it still finds nothing, then no link will be generated or shown.
REQUIRED PERMISSIONS
It'll ask you for permission to read and modify all pages, because that's what it does. It scans the page for headers with IDs (or Names), and then injects one link for each header that has it present.
