server; it is processed locally in the browser after the document has been

Wow.

Frankly, I don't understand it.

When you sent me the link to 
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragment_identifier#Processing"; could you explain 
what happened?  That is ... what was sent to the server and what ther server 
sent back to
the browser?

This really confuses me.

And, yes, I realize this is now not a Rails question ... but I'd be grateful 
for help.
