Would be much better.
I did search the forum for information about footnotes and then linkbacks. I found a some threads, including some in the Sigil forum, but none specifically answered the questions I had.

I found a post yesterday that linked this page: http://www.w3schools.com/HTML/html_links.asp which is what I used to figure out how to do my footnotes in Sigil on my own.

When I was unable to figure out how to linkback by searching the forum and reading other threads, I figured this was a good place to ask.

I may be clueless about HTML, but I am not lazy. My career is in the healthcare field and I am a very busy person, also getting ready to move this weekend. I read a book about HTML about seven years ago, but since I never had an opportunity to apply any of it because it is not my field and I had no use for it at the time, I don't remember any of the specifics. Presently, I just don't have time to devote to learning all aspects of HTML again, when I likely will not use much more than I am using currently.

I just wanted a quick and easy way to fix my links, which Meme was kind enough to supply. I was able to quickly go through my code this morning and fix and test all 180+ footnote links and linkbacks, and they all work perfectly. I am extremely grateful for the help that was generously given here.

I did notice one curiosity when testing my linkbacks - in ADE and Sigil, the linkbacks go right back to the exact place I left off, like a back button. When I use it on my Kindle, it takes me to the beginning of the paragraph it is in, which can be a few Kindle pages back with a long paragraph and large font. Not really a problem or question because I can just use the Kindle back button, but I thought it was weird.
