    Try using an ID instead (make sure it’s unique on that page)

    <a id="tips">my tips</a>

    This seems to be the standard now though I’m not sure why name isn’t working for you as AFAIK it hasn’t been deprecated.

    Update

    What DOCTYPE are you using? Seems the name attribute has been marked "Obsolete" in HTML5. See http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/obsolete.html#obsolete-but-conforming-features
