<a href="#"></a> To go to the top of the page is OK.

<a href="#" onClick="goToLocation('page.html')"></a> Is wrong! Do not assume 
that everybody's browser has JavaScript support (enabled). What does the user 
see when he clicks that link and has no JS? Nothing, he sees the same page.
<a href="page.html" onClick="goToLocation('page.html'); return false;"></a> is 
*much* better...
