That's what anchor tags with an id tag are for, so it scrolls to the section you want. Which they use on the desktop but, wait for it, you can guess what's coming here, not on the mobile site...

I feel like I've had so many conversations of this form:

User: This doesn't work on your mobile site, why don't you just give me your desktop site because it works better?

Mobile web site dev: We can't do that on mobile because X.

User: But X is already a solved problem on the existing site.

Mobile web site dev: Sorry, but we need to do a mobile site.
