Correct. Since the hash symbol ("fragment identifier") signals the
beginning of the name of an internal bookmark within the document
returned by the server, browsers don't even send this as part of the
request, so it is not available to PHP. (I have seen it arrive as part
of a request, but that is a pretty good indication that the request
was submitted by a script rather than a browser.)

...the fragment identifier is not used in the scheme-specific
processing of a URI; instead, the fragment identifier is separated
from the rest of the URI prior to a dereference, and thus the
identifying information within the fragment itself is dereferenced
solely by the user agent, regardless of the URI scheme.
