issue one:
read the API and see if the HTML engine accepts anchor links in the page

issue two:
the correct form for an anchor link is:

http://www.siteName.com/pageName.html#anchorName

no trailing slash as we are referencing a document.
you may be calling a script on an 'index' page in which case, you could
probably pass:

http://www.siteName.com/index#anchorName

but i imagine that this depends on your configuration.

issue three:
some non alphanumeric chars have to be translated to pass. in this case the
hash sign should be translated to '%23'. the '%' is an escape char,
indicating that the following is a hex ascii code. of course [switch on the
infinite improbability drive...], if it doesn't take the hash, it won't take
the '%'.

issue four:
there should be no 'blanks' and no non-alphanumeric signs other than
'#','%','-','_','.','/' in your path name, with '#','%','.','/' having
reserved uses.

issue five:
i will guarantee that it will be none of the above in complete application
of sod's law.
