In each case, I went to a page and an anchor in the middle, and bookmarked. I then closed the browser, reopened, and selected the bookmark. In each case, the correct display appeared. In neither case did the anchor (#ZZZ) appear in the httpd log. Since my CGI sends 403 if it sees #ZZZ, we can safely assume that the browsers did not send it. The occasional appearance of #ZZZ in my logs therefore still remains a mystery. By the way, I can duplicate it if I use nc on another Linux box to send an (in)appropriate GET.
