hi JF
thanks for your response
though i'm not sure if i'm understanding correctly.

this seems to be a pmwiki issue.
if i go into, say dreamweaver, and create the anchor as desired, using
        <a name="àdroite" id="àdroite"></a>
it works correctly: the anchor doesn't display, and any link#àdroite leads to the right place

but [[#àdroite]] seems to cause pmwiki to spit out
<a href='#àdroite'>#àdroite</a>

?

hi
i recently discovered some broken/visible anchors on a user's page.
his use of a special character at the beginning of the anchor seems
to be the culprit, as it causes the anchor to become visible (special
characters within a word don't seem to cause problems). here is an
example;

    [[#àdroite]]
afaik, pmwiki respects w3c standards and recommendations while this
syntax ([[#àdroite]]) does not.
Take a look at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/types.html#type-name :
ID and NAME tokens must begin with a letter ([A-Za-z]) and may be
followed by any number of letters, digits ([0-9]), hyphens ("-"),
underscores ("_"), colons (":"), and periods (".").
