Hello tutomaky, and welcome to WebmasterWorld.

HTML's fragment identifier (text after the "#") is used by a Web browser to navigate to part of a document. It is not sent by user agents (e.g. browsers and search engines), so there is no difference between /foo.html, /foo.html#1 and /foo.html#2 in Google.

CGI's QUERY_STRING is sent from he user agent to the Web server, so there is a difference between /foo.html, /foo.html?1 and /foo.html?2 in Google.

Thanks Ciml,

So if i put a link to page.html#id1 and another to page.html#id2, Is page.html receiving the PR?

regardss!

If the links are from different pages, then yes. If they are both from a page, then they count as one for PR. (at least that was the case last time I checked)

I linked to a page using only URLs like: 2005.html#March and 2005.html#October and the page is indexed just fine, without the #month part included.

I notice that Yahoo includes the #month part though.
