Hi Richard

I have seen this also, and I don't think it's a bug (but of  course i don't know for sure). The anchors that is listed in the drop-down is the anchors that is used on the current page.

I agree that it would be a very practical feature if the "insert link"-function could take the anchors of the destinationpage, instead of the anchors on the current page.

But maybe someone has a fix. I'm interested too...

I think (not sure) that the anchor functionality is part of tinymce, not umbraco.  If this is the case it's much more understandable that it "doesn't know" wehat the anchors are on any page but the page currently in the editor.

I think that you are right Dan.

And I can fully understand that TinyMCE doesn't know the anchors on the choosen Umbraco-page if that's the case. However it would still be a neat feature ;)

Thanks Guy's. You are right of course, if TinyMCE isn't closely related to Umbraco... Actually, this is pretty much of a show stopper for many people trying to get existing (or even new) pages linked within Umbraco. It is a severe waste of time and very error prone to have to switch back and forth and copy/paste etc. between pages ... Yes, this would be a very cool feature. I'm still working on getting my head around the whole (cool) feature set though...

Just putting in my vote to have the ability to link to anchors on other pages... 

Let's say our anchors look like this:

<a name="#anc_somethingunique" title="somethingreadable" />

Couldn't you just parse the markup of the selected page and then get all a-tags with a name using jquery or htmlagilitypack like this:

$('a[name*="anc_"]')

Then populate the select box with the selected data like this

<select>
   <option value="/link/to/the/selected/page#anc_somethingunique">somethingreadable or anc_somethingunique</option>
</select>

I have no idea if this is possible, I'm just a frontender and this is just an idea ... ;) No reponsibilities taken ...

is working on a reply...
