Re: Linking to anchors within a "spawned" page

Hi Jon,

i've found a little "trick" (that lets your page still work without
JavaScript, too):

<a href="targetpage.html#A?dummy=1">A</a>
<a href="targetpage.html#B?dummy=2">B</a>
<a href="targetpage.html#C?dummy=3">C</a>

and in targetpage.html:

<body onLoad="self.focus()">

I'm sure you already figured out the drawback of this method: it is
reloading the page for every click. Maybe a no-brainer in a LAN.

Technically, that is still a bit of JavaScript.

Also, I just tried it out, and it doesn't seem to work for me,
either in IE5, NS4, or Moz.

Cheers!  Hans
