Re: anchors in tables?

Actually I’d like to see the html output, not the entire page but just a part with one or two of the anchors in it.
And the html output of this code:

<a href="<txp:site_url />archive/2008#<txp:posted format="%B" />"><txp:posted format="%B&nbsp;%Y" /></a>

(You can strip your site url from it if you wish.)

Re: anchors in tables?

Ooh ok, well here is the html output of the anchor usage:

<h1>Archives</h1>
<br />
Organized by month:
<br />
<br />
&bull; <a href="/archive/2008#May">May&nbsp;2008</a>
<br />
&bull; <a href="/archive/2008#April">April&nbsp;2008</a>
<br />
&bull; <a href="/archive/2008#March">March&nbsp;2008</a>
<br />
&bull; <a href="/2008#February">February&nbsp;2008</a>
<br />
&bull; <a href="/archive/2008#January">January&nbsp;2008</a>

And then the html output of the results:

<h1>2008 Archive</h1><br /><br />
<a name="May" id="May"></a>
<h3>May</h3>
<font color="#666">13:</font> <a rel="bookmark" href="/post/tidy-up">Tidy up</a>
<br />
<font color="#666">07:</font> <a rel="bookmark" href="/post/fancy-the-shop">Fancy the shop</a>
<br />
<font color="#666">04:</font> <a rel="bookmark" href="/post/movunday">MOVunday</a>
<br />

Oh keep in mind both of them are contained within the tables.

Re: anchors in tables?

Wait a minute, shouldn’t your output be

<a href="/archive/2008/#May">May&nbsp;2008</a>

instead of

<a href="/archive/2008#May">May&nbsp;2008</a>

(so with a slash after 2008)?

Re: anchors in tables?

No there is no slash. “2008” is an empty article set in the archive section.

Re: anchors in tables?

I see. In the meantime I tried the code on my test install, I changed your

<h1>2008 Archive</h1><br /><br />
<a name="May" id="May"></a>
<h3>May</h3>

to

<h1>2008 Archive</h1><br /><br />
<h3 id="May">May</h3>

put it in a table, and linked to it from another page with

<a href="/archive/2008#May">May&nbsp;2008</a>

and it goes to the anchor nicely (tried it in two different browsers, Firefox and Konqueror). So I’m sorry, but I don’t know why it doesn’t work for you…

Re: anchors in tables?

Do other existing id’s work as an anchor? Like /archive/2008#content?

Re: anchors in tables?

Nope. I tried every anchor link. They still go to the top of page and not to the top of the month name.

Re: anchors in tables?

May be your page doesn’t have vertical scrollbars? If so, nothing will happen – browser cannot scroll page to desired anchor.
