Robert,You CAN enter the URL directly in a browser, and the page 'should' scroll down to the anchor (<a name='foo'>). A sample URL would be: http://hostname/foo#bar.
Now, a rule is allowed to redirect to an anchor. It simply cannot match or capture it.
To address your issue with Safari, I have several co-workers that use it, and they never reported that issue.

Thanks Frank, What I'm hearing is that the redirection is using a RegEx and that the hash character cannot be a player. Furthermore, the fact that this works on most browsers (but fails on Safari) is due to them being not strictly compliant. Is that about it? Thanks, Robert Frank Gingras wrote:Hello Robert, Actually, the # in the URI indicates an anchor, not a comment. They cannot be matched on, nor captured. Frank
