As I understand it, browsers do not send anchors (i.e., "fragment identifiers") to the server, so if a user clicks on http://127.0.0.1:8000/init/default/account#Invite, the http request sent to web2py will not include the "#Invite" part of the URL, and web2py will therefore not be able to include it in the redirect. Fragment identifiers are only meant for client-side purposes (i.e., to identify fragments within returned resources). You might be able to get it to work using Javascript -- that's how sites with hash-bang URLs work. Anthony
