I thought I had a quick answer to the poster's question. The hash character in the fragment was URI escaped. While I was trying to craft a reply I noticed a problem with a link I was trying to create: How does this markup `<a href ="http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=Site%20How%20To#where +doipost">http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=Site%20How%20To#where +doipost</a>` [download] ...become a link with this href? `http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?parent=164085&title=Please%20fix%20W +here%20do%20I%20post%20X&lastnode_id=164085&displaytype=display&type= +superdoc&node=Comment%20on` [download] This link demonstrates the problem: http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=Site%20How%20To#wheredoipost Is this a bug or a feature? conv Update After submission the link href has been changed yet again. Should I be using '[url]' instead?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

As of today (three years later ;-), the best way to construct such a link is: `[href://?node_id=9953#wheredoipost\|Where do I post X?]` [download] which yields Where do I post X? OT PS: that doc has been superceded by the PerlMonks FAQ, and that particular section has been superceded by Where should I post X? We're building the house of the future together.	[reply] [d/l]
