Most likely a bug in IE indeed, but also most likely completely unrelated to sending variables through the GET method. I have several web-apps in daily use that use the method you describe (sending both a variable or several through GET and using an anchor with #) that work perfectly well in IE. I think there is something else on the page the makes IE go wacky. A simple test to show that it indeed works in IE: http://www.ilmiantajat.net/testing/zuni/anchor/index.php?variable=blahblah#anchor_1 http://www.ilmiantajat.net/testing/zuni/anchor/index.php?variable=blahblah#anchor_2 http://www.ilmiantajat.net/testing/zuni/anchor/index.php?variable=blahblah#anchor_3 HTH -- Suni
