named anchor

Post by dhathy »

Okay, maybe I am just being too thick on this but I am not getting named anchors to work.  I got it to work on a test machine at work yesterday, but tried on a live test site and it did not work.

On both sites I added the following to the page in the appropriate spot:

Code: Select all

{anchor anchor='ComforterSet14Drop' text='Comforter Set w/14" Drop'},
next I added this to the spot on the page I wish to link to:

Code: Select all

<th colspan="6">Comforter Set -14" Drop<a #"ComforterSet14Drop"></a></th>
As I said, this worked okay on a test machine at work but not on the live test site which is here:

Any help appreciated.  I have searched the forums and read about "anchor" under "extensions" ->"Tags" and thought I had a grip on it and was very excited when this worked locally.

Thanks to a great community and product

Code: Select all

<a name="ComforterSet14Drop">

Thank you for such a quick reply. I made the change you suggested.  This did not work.

However, I have been doing some testing with the{anchor}and  {cms_selflink} tags.

What I have come up with is, I beleive, a bug.  If this turns out to be the case, where should I report this.
The {anchor} and {cms_selflink} work fine on all pages EXCEPT those using the CATELOGER extension.

If there is anyone else using Cateloger, maybe you could try to replicate this .

Thanks,

Dan
