Breaking out to an external anchor

S

Scott Armitage

I am trying to set up an HTML e-mail to be delivered to several
Microsoft Outlook 2003. I have page anchors within this HTML e-mail
that work correctly when used with <a href="#anchorname">link</a>.

However, I also want there to be links to external file, including page
anchors.
For example:

<a
href="file://///servername/directory/file.html#anotheranchor">link</a>


Clicking on the above link will open the default web browser (I've
tried both Firefox and IE and both exhibit the same symptoms) and open
the file (ok, great) BUT, it will not include the "#anotheranchor"
part... e.g. it will open the file to the top of the page instead of
scrolling down to the proper anchor position.

Any ideas?
