SV: MI-L Problems hotlinking to a html-anchor

[Richard Nilsson]

 
Hello!

I have a problem that I've spent a whole day trying to solve. It
concerns hotlinking to an anchor in a htmlfile (somefile.htm#anchor).
This works just fine when I link to a webbased htmlfile
(http://www.someserver.com/somefile.htm#anchor), but when I try to link
to an
anchor in a htmlfile on my harddrive (file://G:\hoorsan.htm#006)
something goes wrong! The statusbar in MI shows the whole link,
including the anchor, but when the file opens in Internet explorer the
anchor somehow gets cut off (file://G:\hoorsan.htm#006 becomes
file://G:\hoorsan.htm) and I end up at the top of the page instead of
further down at the anchor where I wanted to go! Does anyone have a
solution or explanation for this?

I am running Mapinfo Pro 7.0 on Win XP Pro SP 1. 

Thanks in advance!

Hi again!

This problem have now been addressed at Mapinfo in the UK and then at
Mapinfo in the US. They have come to the conclusion that this is a bug
in Mapinfo pro 7.0. They couldn't say when or how they are going to fix
it. I really hope they will put a patch out there, ASAP!! Well, at least
I found out that it wasn't me doing anything wrong...

Thanks goes out to all of you giving a hand with this problem!

/Richard
