Ok, how about the reverse of this? You do a GET on an URL without a fragment (an imagemap, say), and the server issues a 302 *with* a fragment (to a glossary page, say). Should the browser: a) seek to the fragment given in the redirect b) start at top of page, since the original didn't start with a fragment c) none of the above - discuss -DaveReceived on Tuesday, 2 January 1996 14:28:00 GMT
