That's what I just found out too. I tried Fred's suggestions of using Apache::URI's fragment, but nothing seemed to work. So I decided to just make sure it was being passed to the server. It seems that the browser (tried with FF 1.5 and wget) doesn't pass the #fragment. If this is true, why do we even have these methods in Apache::URI ? -- Michael Peters Developer Plus Three, LP
