Anchor links reloads page

My site (www.vikunja.com) is mainly built with anchor links creating that nice smooth navigaton that I like.
When I open the site and click on one of the menylabels, it scrolls down the site exactly as I want it .
BUT when I click again (on any label) the site reloads first. It really annoying.
I noticed that when I enter the site, the adress bar reads "www.vikunja.com"
Lets say that I click on the "Music" label, then the adress bar says "www.vikunja.com/#music" - so far so good
Then when I click on a label the second time, the adress bar changes to "www.vikunja.com/index.htlm#contact
That makes the site reload. Why does it add the "index.htlm" just like that?
Can I fix it?
/A

I have the same problem - Anchor links reloading pages.
Just updated software to the new release 7.0.2 today (4.5.2012) and still has the same problem.
Has the bug been fixed or not?

Anchors/links within pages

I really need to link from one iWeb page to an anchor inside another, but can't figure out how or if this can be done. To see what I mean, go here:
http://web.mac.com/wildwing1/Recipes/Index.html
What I want to do is make an anchor on each of the recipes in the other pages, then link this page to each of them by name so people can click on each recipe name and go directly there instead of having to search each page. I'd also like to link each recipe to a printable file, but think I may have figured that one out.
I used to work in GoLive and Photoshop, and while I like iWeb and iPhoto a lot more they do seem more constricting in areas like this.
Thanks in advance,
Suzanne

Anchors are not directly supported in iWeb, but there are numbers of work-around.
Post editing gets old real quick, especially when you like to have many anchors as in your site.
From looking at your Recipes pages, they are long windows, so the easiest thing to do is to have a javascript to scroll to the right spot when the window is open, I made sample of your pages - I only made three anchor links:
http://hdl.50webs.com/Anchors1/From.html
In the From.html page, the text links need to be added as link to an external page (in inspector); so you can specify the full path including the anchor, eg:
http://hdl.50webs.com/Anchors1/To.html#1
The scrolling script is attached to the To.html page using HTML Snippet, see its source code of the following:
http://hdl.50webs.com/Anchors1/Tofiles/widget1markup.html
You need to fill in the anchors array with the Y position of each recipe.

Problem with anchor link entire page moves to the left of the browser

I created an anchor link on the top of my home page with a text link at the botton called "back to top of page" whenever I click on the text link on my desktop the page move vertically upwards to the top of the page but when I try doing this on either of my laptop the page moves diagonally from right to left up to the top of the page how can I fix this? You can see this on my website www.sweetproductionmedia.com

hi julia, i placed the anchor in various places to see what works. I placed the anchor center top towards the left and right side within the browser. I also tried upper top outside of the browser center, right and left and it still moves diagonally. Here's what I noticed. On my desktop I use a 25" monitor so the anchor works fine the page moves straight up but whenever I view it on both laptops it moves diagonally. I had my sister test the link on her laptop (she lives in Brazil) and she told me that sometimes it would go straight up and another time it moved diagonally. Here's the link to my website so you can see the problem in action. There's a 'back to top' link on almost every page see for yourself. www.sweetproductionmedia.com
thanks so much for taking the time to help:-)

How to make an anchor link also refresh the page?

I'm trying some new things with some widgets (compositions) and I'd like to make certain anchor links also refresh my page (on the mobile version of my website). I tried putting the entire link in instead of just selecting my anchor (.com/mypage#myanchor) but that only works the first time (maybe because the user already is on .com/mypage#myanchor ?)
A bit of Googling found me a way to do this:
window.location.href = 'mypagetoreload.htm#jumptosection1';
window.location.reload(true);
but I don't know how to use this in Muse..
Thanks in advance!

Im experimenting with some different versions of a mobile version of my website. In this one I'm trying to put all content (everything except the header and footer) in a composition slideshow. I made the triggers invisible and placed them over my menu buttons in the header, so that the content scrolls horizontally. I like this because people only need to load 1 page (my mobile version only has about 6 pages) and they can also swipe between content, like my product pages.
This all worked out fine, but now every "page" is the same length (because in reality its just one page with a slideshow on it). So now I had to add content to some pages (like home and about us) to kinda fill all space (the pages with my products on it have alot more content). I decided to put pages together, like put "about us" on the same page as "home". I made an anchor and linked to that anchor with my "about us" menu button. But, as "about us" is on slide 1 with home, the slideshow must also reset when people click it (otherwise you would only scroll down on the wrong slide). If I make my website refresh the slideshow resets (it would also work if i open the link in a new window, but that'd be very annoying).
English isn't my first language, please excuse my bad grammer.
Thanks in advance!

(Note: Please remove the comments that i have added in creating anchor link. I was facing some issue in putting my code in this editor. It was creating the HTML link when i see the preview.)
I hope you will be able to reproduce my problem.

What version of IE are you using? IIRC, IE 7 is supposed to prompt you. ("The web site is attempting to open a page in your Trusted Zone. This can let hax0rs pwnz0r you. Continue?" or something to that effect.)
If you use the verbatim tags, do you get an actual error message? That might help diagnose the problem.

Link to anchor in another page?

I'm trying to link to an anchor in another page, as opposed
to the same page. Is this possible? Can I do it using a hotzone
instead of text?
I found this but it seems to only want to link to an anchor
on the same page -
http://www.uwec.edu/HELP/Dreamweaver8/lnk-target.htm
Any help much appreciated.

Yes it is possible.
In the properties dialog insert the page containing the named
anchor into the link edit box.
At the end of the link add #anchor name.
For example:
link:
index.htm#anchorname

Adobe acrobat anchor link not going to the right page.

I have anchor link from html page like http://www,pbgc.gov/docs/2006bluebook.pdf#page=15, when you try to click the link on my machine and some other employees it goes to first page rather than going to page 15. Other employees get page 15. Have anyone experience this issue or know why this issue happen in Adobe Acrobat.
Most our employees have Adobe Acrobat 8, Also there are some who have Adobe Acrobat 9. I was thinking it may due to the version but someone with Adobe 8 is also having the issue.
Please advise. Thanks!

Is Adobe Reader being opened as a plugin in your browser, or as an external application? I think the links to specific locations in the document only work if Adobe Reader is used as a plugin. I've had the same problem, and it was because I didn't have Reader as a browser plugin.

Link anchor takes the page off center

I set up my page to be in the center of the browser and when i go to preview and click on the link that is linked to a "link anchor" the entire page moves to the left of the browser placing the anchor at the top corner of the browser. How can i keep the page centered when clicking on the link?

I'm running Muse v3.2 Build 2 and had just updated some info and re-exported my site, and noticed that the Anchor links have stopped working in Chrome and Safari. When clicked, the page moves sideways in the browser and does not return to the top of the page. It does work correctly in IE and Firefox. One of the affected pages is http://www.i-review.com/implementation.html so when you scroll down and click any of the 'To the top' links, this happens once then nothing. If you go to another page like http://www.i-review.com/training.html it will occur there once too.

Link to Anchor on another page DW Mac CS4

In GoLive when I clicked on the pointer to go to another page, it showed a list of anchors on that page. Is there a way to do this? Alternately I could have two pages open at once and click from the text on one page directly to the anchor on the other with the pointer.
Problem is that with the tabed pages I cannot open two pages at once. Is there a way to open two pages next to each other instead of tabbed?

In GoLive when I clicked on the pointer to go to another page, it showed a list of anchors on that page. Is there a way to do this?
No. Several GoLive people have asked the same question. You can't do it in Dreamweaver. If you think it's an important feature that you would like to see added to a future version, file a feature request here: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform.
Alternately I could have two pages open at once and click from the text on one page directly to the anchor on the other with the pointer.
I doubt if that would work.
Is there a way to open two pages next to each other instead of tabbed?
You can turn off the tabbed interface in the Mac version of Dreamweaver by selecting the General category in the Preferences panel. Deselect the checkbox labelled Open documents in tabs.

Is there a way to make an anchor link display a different colour when selected? (active state)

I have a vertically scrolling site I am trying to set up, and it's all going well. Only problem is when you use the menu (widget or non-widget) to move to an anchor link, thus bringing in the next section, I can't get the link to diplay as a different colour.
This would be good for letting the user know what section is infront of them.
Is there a way to do this?
One other question: Is there a way to get an anchor link to display centrally in the middle of the page up and down. I can arrange it so it looks good in one browser window, but as soon as the user has more vertical space it seems to diplay a set distance from the top. I guess what I'm asking is can the anchor link define the center point instead of the top point?
Many thanks!

Hello,
Could you please elaborate what exactly you are referring to with "I can't get the link to diplay as a different colour"?
Regarding your second query, I am afraid it is not possible using Adobe Muse. However it can be a very nice feature request.
I would suggest you to post this as a feature request on our "Ideas for features in Adobe Muse" section of the forums : http://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas

Anchor links to accordion panels not working properly across browsers

Hi everyone,
I need some help to figure out why my anchor links to specific accordion panels on another page are not working properly across browsers.
I have a Map page which has tooltips on mouseover on the site markers. 15 of the tooltips have "Click here for information" anchor links (although only 14 are currently linked) which, in theory, would take you to the Nurseries page where the specified accordion panel would be opened with the nursery entry appearing at the top of the new browser window.
Here are the links to the Map page and Nurseries page, respectively:
www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/map_v6.html
www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/nurseries_v6.html
I've tested the anchor links on IE, Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari, and have received varying results. In most cases, the anchor links worked perfectly on two of the browsers, while on the other browsers, the correct accordion panel is opened but the nursery entry does not appear at the top of the new browser window. Anchor links using Safari and Google Chrome fared better (10 out of 14 links worked properly, and 8/14, respectively), whereas when using Firefox and IE, only 3 anchor links worked properly. The target audience for this website will be using IE and Firefox, so I would appreciate any help to figure out how to tweak the code so that the most, if not all, anchor links work properly on these two browsers in particular.
Here's an anchor link which worked perfectly in IE, GC, and Safari, but in FF, the entry did not appear at the top of the new browser window.
www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/nurseries_v6.html?luzon=9#mangatarem
http://www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/nurseries_v6.html?luzon=9#mangatarem [To access the anchor link on the Map page, mouseover the third green dot from the top of the map (Tooltip--Location: Mangatarem) and then click on "Click here for information."]
Here's a sample anchor link in which the entry did not appear at the top of the new browser window in any of the 4 browsers:
www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/nurseries_v6.html?mindanao=4#magpetAmabel
http://http://www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/nurseries_v6.html?mindanao=4#magpetAmabel [To access the anchor link on the Map page, go to "Mindanao" at the bottom of the map and mouseover the fourth green dot below the word "Mindanao" (Tooltip--LOCATION: Brgys. Amabel, Bongolanon, Imamaling, & Manobisa; Magpet; North Cotabato) and then click on "Click here for information."]
Here's a sample anchor link in which the anchor link worked properly in GC and Safari, but the entry didn't appear at the top of the browser window in IE and FF:
www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/nurseries_v6.html?visayas=1#bilar
http://http://www.alegriadesignstudio.com/RFRI/nurseries_v6.html?visayas=1#bilar [To access the anchor link on the Map page, go to the small island north and a bit west of "Mindanao" which is called "Bohol" and mouseover the fourth green dot below the word "Mindanao" (Tooltip--LOCATION: Bilar; Bohol) and then click on the first "Click here for information."]
Many thanks in advance for your assistance!

Active state not working in scrolling site (with anchor links)

I'm design a scrolling site with anchor links and an horizontal menu on the top.
when i publish the site and click on the menu buttons the site scrolling to the place of the anchor but the active state in the menu is not working.
now... when i leave the main page (were the scrolling site is) and then return back to it all active states are working perfectly
anyone have this bug? or any one know how to fix it ?

Hmmm...I've just been playing around, and I think I got the Active State to work correctly. I think my problem was not understand what Active State means.
To answer your question, I was changing the Font Color and Box Fill Color of the Active State.
I did not understand that Active State means the look of the Menu Item when the PAGE is active. I thought it meant the look of the Menu item when the cursor is scrolling down the Menu (i.e. when the MENU is Active, not the page).
Look at this page for an example of what I'm trying to achieve...
http://www.pgavdestinations.com
When you hover over the "Work" menu item, and move the cursor down the menu, the state of "Work" remains changed until you move the cursor off of that menu column. It does NOT return back to it's Normal state until you are off of that menu column.
Is there a way to achieve this with the menu states in Muse?
Thanks for the replies!
Dave.

Issue with Anchor Links in Composition Widget

Hoping for some help regarding anchor links. I was successful in nesting a Slideshow widget within a Composition widget. The Composition widget contains six panels, each of which contains one Slideshow. Thankfully, that all works as it’s supposed to.
What I want is to direct users (from another page on my site) to a specific Slideshow within the Composition widget (i.e., for example, to the slideshow on the third panel of the Composition). The anchor link does work in that it directs users to the page with the Slideshow/Composition combo. However, it displays the first panel in the Composition and not the third. I’ve tried inserting the anchor link on top of the actual picture in the Slideshow, and also within one of its text labels. Still the same result.
My question … can an anchor link be used to direct someone to a specific panel within the Composition widget? Perhaps I can export my site to HTML, open the .html file in Dreamweaver and … I don’t know, move or rename the anchor somehow? Is anyone else having this issue?

This is a bit late in the day looking at the date of your post, but I asked the same question recently and Brad Lawryk answered (thanks Brad - saved me hours of fiddling!):
Unfortunately the only way to do this now would be to save a copy of the page with the desired tab focused. Unfortunately this does cause duplicate content and is not SEO friendly though.

Text Anchor Links

Hello,
We are working on a project that uses Text Anchor Links.
We need the links, that are in the same document, to open in a new window. (For example: A link on page 4 that points to page 76 needs to open a new window showing both page 4 in the original window and 76 in a new).
The only way we can get this to work is by having the links in separate PDF documents, but would like to have one file instead of a resource folder.
Anyone know of a way to do this?
TIA

I have exactly the same problem with the url's in the body of my Verizon webmail emails too! The problem started a couple of weeks ago. The url's are not highlighted at all. I too have to copy them and them paste them into a browser. It appears to be a problem with the Verizon webmail application, since it doesnt matter which computer I access webmail from.

Can i make a button change anchor link when you scroll down the site?

I am trying to make a scroll site.. and i have navigation buttons on the right, a full menu, but also a "1 topic up" button and "1 topic down" button.
Is there any way that i can have those buttons change anchor link when you scroll down the site.
Example:
I am at home, then i press "1 topic down" and gets scrolled to the next topic on the website, but then i cant make the button change to link to the anchor below that, so the button becomes useless after that 1 press.
Is that in any way possible in Muse to make it change link?

Hi
You can try to create different buttons on page positions where down scrolling will be active with separate button actions. For example you click on "I topic down" , page scrolls and there is another button placed with "Next Topic down" , on click this would scroll the page more and similarly along the length of page.
Button with anchor link scrolling down the page cannot be used for different anchor links, creating different buttons with anchors is the solution.
Thanks,
Sanjit
