Check that anchor tags work in embedded mozilla (especially with 'weird' URI's 
like 'man', 'help' and 'info'). I could not test this because links currently 
do not work with these URI's at all.

Is there a separate bug about "links currently do not work with these URI's at
all"? Or is this bug report intended to be about that problemt too?



------- Additional Comments From ramiro@fateware.com 2000-09-05 17:03:32 ----

I think these are two separate (even though related) issues.

Marking assigned one day.  I have no clue how to fix this, i need to dig.

Darin: Bug #42788 is the one about links not working with these URI's

ramiro: I think we need to check/verify that anchors do not work first.

Bug 43864 talks about a specific reproducible case of an anchor tag that doesn't
work. (That bug starts out by talking about a crash, but the crash seems to have
been fixed and what's left is an example of following an anchor tag leaving the
content view gray.)

Since Ramiro hates this, I'll take it

This is a pretty vague bug that isn't entirely valid anymore.

Here's what I know:

Anchors in the {ghelp,help,gnome-help}: scheme do not work at all.

All other anchors work.

The bug about anchors in the help schemes are descibed in bug 45416.  The other
symtoms occasinally attributed to this bug (such as crashing when clicking on
links) have all been resolved.

I'm going to close this bug as WORKSFORME, because in the general case anchors
do work really well.

Ali, might you care to verify this? 

All of the duplicates have been marked as Verified, and I'm not sure precisely
what needs to be done to verify our anchor handling.

I can not verify this bug because I think it still exists.

HTML links do not work with html help files (bug #44302) - so I can not test the 
anchor tags/links with html help files.

I am pretty sure that anchor tags and links to them do not work in the SGML 
files. The problem I believe is in libvfs-help.so 

(note: this was originally reported by my here because mozilla itself did not 
support anchor tags. But now it does, and the libvfs-help.so module needs to 
catch up). So I would re-open this bugs (and assign it to me). Should I do this 
myself, or will you do it?

Sure, Ali -- it's all yours.

Thanks for the quick follow-up, too, by the way.

Moving this to 1.0 along with bug #44302 ...

I was hoping that the latest version of Nautilus (PR3_branch) and Mozilla-0.7
would fix this problem.  However, I just created a very basic HTML file with an
anchor and, although mozilla is happy with the anchor and behaves properly,
Nautilus can't follow the anchor.  In fact, Nautilus seems to munge the URL. 
The target points to the local file, so the absolute URL is:
/home/dan/test.html#MYTARGET 
But it changes it to:
/home/dan#MYTARGET/test.html

If I just type the location:
/home/dan/test.html#MYTARGET
I get a "file not found"-type error.
If I use:
file:/home/dan/test.html#MYTARGET
then it munges the URL to:
/home/dan#MYTARGET/test.html

This causes serious problems for the help system.  However, this is a general
problem for Nautilus which we really need to get fixed.

Ali - Are you planning on fixing this?  The status is still "NEW".

This sounds like it is a more 'generic' problem with the mozilla component and 
anchor tags. i.e. it is not help related (yes there is an issue with the help 
module and anchor tags, but this can not be fixed until "normal" anchor tags 
work with mozilla.

This should be probably be assigned to mfleming and/or ramiro to explore/test. 
Putting them on the CC list

Man, this is such a huge hot-potatop bug.  So it seems that there's two parts to
this bug: one is really 4302, and the other is wierdness that Dan just
described.

I'll take this bug, but be warned: I'll be brutal because I think that the
problem that originally caused this bug to be filed is long long gone.

Created an attachment (id=1150)
This is a simple HTML file with an anchor and link to the anchor.




------- Additional Comments From dan@eazel.com 2001-01-26 17:59:35 ----

That attachment is the file test.html which I referred to in my earlier report
on this bug.  Netscape and Mozilla seem to be happy with following the link to
the anchor within the file.  Nautilus does not follow it properly.

This is the same as bug 42057.


*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 42057 ***



------- Additional Comments From eli@eazel.com 2001-02-24 15:03:53 ----

Verifying DUPLICATE:

- All bugs marked duplicate of this bug are verified
- The test case that Dan attached (thank you!) which mjs says is bug 42057 now
works fine. (2057 is also marked 'RESOLVED', so it makes sense.)
