[ARCHIVED] Anchor links not scrolling up - HTML question

Hi all! 

I have a question about anchor links. I have a grammar page that has a lot of subheadings. In the first part of the page, there are headlines with links to the specific section below. That works fine. 

Then I need to link to those sections and sometimes it works, the page scrolls up and I get my correct headline on top of the page. But sometimes (about 50/50) it stays on the bottom of the page, ie the headline doesn't scroll up. 

I have checked my code and it is identical to my eyes. Please help! 

The referring page code: 

<p>
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#3.2.2"></a> (I have tried taking this away. No change)
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#reginf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Infinitive</a>
</p>
<p>
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#3.2.3"></a>
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#auxver" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Auxiliary verbs</a>
</p>

The grammar page code: 


<p>
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#3.2.2"></a> 
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#reginf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Infinitive</a>
</p>
<p>
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#3.2.3"></a> 
<a href="/courses/110/pages/verbs#auxver" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Auxiliary verbs</a>
</p>

 

The first link scrolls up, the second doesn't. 

And sometimes the first link doesn't scroll up either... 

Should I just give up?
