You want to use a named target for your link ... the HTML would be something
like this:

<p><a href="page_2.htm#bm1" target="page2">link 1</a></p>
<p><a href="page_2.htm#bm2" target="page2">link 2</a></p>

When you click on link 1, it will launch a new browser and go to the
appropriate bookmark.

When you click on link 2, if the original browser is open it will use that
one, if it isn't it will open a new browser, then go to the specified
bookmark.
