anchor tag not working in IE properly

works fine in FF

[cinemaduro]

Hello world!

Saw a forum topic with the exact same problem posted in August, but no replies. Hopefully I'm not out of luck.

I've got a simple picture gallery with anchor tags at the top of the gallery navigation, but IE7 (and 6) isn't going to them. It's just going to the page normally (URL has anchor #top in it correctly). I can put my curser up in the URL (change nothing) and hit ENTER, and the page will drop to the anchor tag correctly. I can also click on the picture and go to the index page which uses anchor tags, and this works properly. No idea why it's working there and not in the larger image pages.

Works fine in Firefox.

Anyone here know what the heck is happening?

No URLs please!

anchor tag: <a name="top" id="top"></a>
refering link to anchor: <A name=1 href="pages/Westbend001.php#top">link stuff here</a>

Hit the old w3c validator and eliminate all the errors you can. I bet it fixes itself ;-)

So, what did you find out?

Did you fix it?

Could try putting something in your named anchor...?

<a name="top" id="top">something</a>

I've got a simple picture gallery...

Are you specifying a width/height for your images? If not, I believe this could also be a problem...
