I've designed a website for myself: http://www.labslab.com

In the coding I adding an anchor to the external pages (anchor on main page works fine ex. if you click home when first entering the site it jumps down to the info) I labelled the a href for the anchors http://www.labslab.com/about_us#home with #home being the anchor.

Problem is that the anchor doesn't work when you go to each page ex. if I go to http://www.labslab.com/about_us#home it doesn't jump down automatically to the info.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can have the site star at the anchor on pages such as the about, portfolio, and contact? Otherwise I will create a new banner for those and remove the flash video.

I hope that makes sense. Any help would be great thanks!

PS. Please disregard the sites music and speed for now, I haven't added a sound on/off button to the flash video yet and the site hasn't been optimized for quick web viewing.

Thanks again!

If it wasn't for your music/etc, I'd check your source again, but I don't remember if you were enclosing the text you were linking to in a <h1> or <h2> tag. If you didn't try the following:

Code: 
<a href="aboutus#home">Home</a>

Code: 
<h1 id="home">Home</h1>

It's been awhile since I had to do that, but give that one a shot. It should work.

After a second google search, I found another method of achieving this:

Code: 
<a href="aboutus#home" />Home</a>

Code: 
<a name="home" />Home</a>

You'll have to try each and see which works.
