Please use "a name" and not ID for anchor (#) linkslwc (Homepage)

Each post/comment gets an anchor link. But you only support browsers that know to treat ID like "a name". Please support the latter to support all browsers. ( categories: )

Broken Browser
Drupal (our content management system) uses IDs. IDs are 100% valid HTML as anchors and are a part of the HTML specification as such. IDs as anchors is supported by Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome and Opera.
If your browser doesn't support it, it's a bug and should be reported to your browser publisher.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

He's right, if your browser doensn't know how to treat the < a name="" > tag, it's got some major issues
[Edit: Whoops, I'm stupid (misread)
, what browser doesn't know how to handle the ID thing though?]

Other way around gluxon
lwc said that his browser has
<a name="">support but lacks<a id="">support, and Drupal only uses<a id="">, and so, he was requesting the inclusion of anameattribute in the tags so he could use them. But a browser that doesn't supportids is really out of date and should be replaced by a more modern browser. Beyond that, using theidattribute is perfectly valid HTML.EDIT: Whoops, too late, you already figured your mistake. And gluxon, lots of older browsers do, like older Netscape and older IEs.
