ID: 23829 Updated by: rasmus@php.net Reported By: MDonatas at centras dot lt -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: *URL Functions Operating System: Windows 2000 Server PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment: Looks like a browser bug to me. Which browser are you using? Browsers don't actually send the #foo across the wire, they simply remember it and scroll down to the location of the <a name> tag when they find it. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-27 08:37:30] MDonatas at centras dot lt I'll make it clear with 3 small webpages in my example on how to reproduce this bug. *******test1.php******** <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <a href="test2.php">Go to test2.php</a> </body> </html> ************************ *******test2.php******** <?php header ("Location: test3.php?this=5&that=6#MyBookmark"); ?> ************************ *******test3.php******** <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <?php var_dump ($HTTP_GET_VARS); ?> </body> </html> ************************ Now, first part of the test: Run test2.php so you would get redirected to test3.php OUTPUT in test3.php :: array(2) { ["this"]=> string(1) "5" ["that"]=> string(1) "6" } Everything is fine here, now second part of the test. Run test1.php and click on the link to go to test2.php and instantly get redirected to test3.php OUTPUT in test3.php :: array(2) { ["this"]=> string(1) "5" ["that"]=> string(12) "6#MyBookmark" } See, there is bookmark thingy attached at the end as if it is a part of my second variable sent over GET vie the link. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23829&edit=1
