HTML Help! Is it possible? Or need Java or something else?

Alright, I've been working on a website and I've reached a part where I'm in need of making some sort of 'sorting' type thing.
I have a long list of text which are names of certain items.
This list is long, but not too long. (Not too long, in which I mean I don't need a search bar or something)
The list is currently in alphabetical order. I'd like to know if there's a way to possibly create something that would let me set the alphabet and once clicked on a letter it would either locate a section of the list (so scroll down to the start of the letter.) or have it to where it would only show that section. (either set up to show on a different page or section.)

***My HTML isn't the best.. Been learning stuff here and there and it's been difficult with the fact that a lot has changed in the way code is handled and a lot of sites are outdated.. But I'm sure I've got the hand of most of the simpler stuff that is used. I just need to know if it's possible to do with HTML or if JAVA or other code is needed to set something like this up..
If it's possible with either or if there's something else to be used, could it be possible for someone to point me in the right direction or let me know the code used?

Thank you to anyone who can help!

-- an example of what I'm looking at would be this link (Internet Movie Database.) http://www.imdb.com/nowplaying/
Yes, this doesn't have alphabetical, and is months, but it's the same idea!

Thanks once again to anyone who can help!
Thanks Tasm that worked. Scrolls right down to the section.
Thanks for the quick answer.
Can't find the place to select yours as the best :\ I guess I have to wait a certain time? Will select it when I can.
Thanks once again!
 
If you are not using a database or anything you could try an html hyper link within the same document.
