Um, you're not using these elements in quite the right way. Anchors
are point anchors (like <A NAME="..."></A>) and links are ID/IDREF
forms of linking.
Anchors are rarely needed. Usually, you can just put the ID on
the appropriate element.
I suggest you check out DocBook: The Definitive Guide at
http://docbook.org/tdg/, in particular the reference pages for Link,
ULink, and Anchor.
Be seeing you,
