Hi, >>Noticed this morning that in at least one Tomcat document: >>http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/index.html >>some internal document anchors <a name="xxxx ?"> end with a question > mark, >>which means any link to them will fail due to the question mark being >>dropped by the server.

Can you confirm that? yes, I can confirm this with latest Opera and IE6SP1 too... but IMO in any case <a name> tags should not include question marks at all since the question mark is the official separator between URL and QUERY_STRING...; and I believe the appended '#name' is still considered to be part of the URL; but regardless what is W3C or not, I think the pages should be viewable with any browser - and that means avoid '?' in name tags.
