Do bookmarks like "mypage.asp#mybookmark" work with QueryStrings, for example "mypage.asp?doSearch=True#myBookmark".
I tried it and was very surprised that they didn't. Was not totally sure if bookmark should go after filename or after the querystring so tried both but neither worked. However I just noticed the following. PageA.asp contains a link to pageB.asp with a whole load of Querystrings appended to the URL like A Href="PageB.asp?doSearch=True" etc but no bookmark. Having used the link to get to PageB.asp if I click a link on pageB.asp to a bookmark on the same page it gets appended to the URL in the address bar ie pageB.asp?doSearch=True#myBookmark and it works, but like I said when I code it like that it does not seem to work, any ideas?

Thanks, now I understand. Dont know why I thought it didnt work when I 'tested' it because I just did it again and it was fine. However like a number of occasions in the past talking to you people has helped me realise that what I was trying to do was a little optimistic anyways. My target page was not specified in the <a href='tagetpage.asp'> but in an onClick event ie Response.Write"<A href=""#"" onClick = ""self.close();window.opener.location.href='page2.asp?doSearch=" & Request.Form("doSearch") & "&SrchText=" & Request.Form("srchText") & "&ddPostCode=" & Request.Form("ddPostCode") & "&findTennant=" & Request.Form("TennantID") & "'"">Close Window</A>" Maybe I should not be surprised that appending a bookmark did not work! Anyway I got over it by passing the bookmark as another name/vale pair in the querystring which is used by a little javascript function on page2.asp to find the right bit of the page.
