Seems to work fine for me. Please include the exact code you are using in MediaWiki:Sidebar.

I'm using **somepage#anchor|Somepage

And when I pass the mouse on SideBar the # disapear and the anchor didn´t work.

I'm using mediawiki 1.17 and Vector extension.


Thanks, Paulo

Interesting.

This seems to be an issue in 1.18 and earlier releases that was accidentally fixed in (the not yet released) MediaWiki 1.19. (MediaWiki 1.19 will probably be released in about one and a half months)

Furthermore, in versions before 1.19 you can work around this by using full urls:

**http://mywiki/SomePage#section|Somepage

I'm using **somepage#anchor|Somepage

And when I pass the mouse on SideBar the # disapear and the anchor didn´t work.
