Does "linkend is being converted correctly" mean?

After converting the *DocBook* document to *HTML*, clicking on the 
"repeat the steps outlined in Section A" makes the browser scroll to 
display the heading with id "SectionA".

Now if this is the case, I really do not understand "I am noticing that 
the id portion is not".

Please, send us another mail specifying:

* The type of your XML document.
* The format of the converted document (HTML? PDF?).
* The tool used to do the conversion (FOP? XEP? in the case of PDF).
* The expected look and feel for the link.
* The expected look and feel for the target of the link.
