In which situation exactly? (In most, it's fairly easy -- just add the
anchor tag to the URLs/URIs you link to.)  The only situation about which
I'm a bit unsure is inside an HTML form. The obvious thing to do would be

<form action="/myscript.php#foo" method="post">
<input name="parameter1">
</form>

but I don't know if that would send the client to
"/myscript.php?parameter1=<something>#foo". If it doesn't work, you can
always do some redirection magic (by doing 'Header("Location:
/something.php#foo");').

Am I making sense? Probably not. ;-)

Take care,
Hendrik
