Hmmm. Another thought - does the above method using location.href work correctly with an ASP link? What I mean is does it force a genuine refresh with a re-do query of the ASP or just reloaded the client side HTML? This is getting more complicated than I thought!

Or link it to when the pop up window is complete?

Ahh, spoke too soon! It does reload the pager to the correct anchor but it is happening too quickly! What I mean, is that by clicking the link this diverts to an ASP page which updates the date setting in the database and then forwards on to actual link. Trouble is the reload occurs very...

Fiddled around in the end and came up with this solution: onClick=location.href='URL#anchor'; Seems to work. Cheers all.

Excuse my possible ignorance but how does this allow me to implement reload with focus on a particular anchor? What I need to do is similar to href='blah.html#thissection' but as the link already contains a href anchor opened in a new window I would like to reload the main window via an onclick...

HI, I have a small web based ASP database application to manage my references. Part of the section gives a list of links and date last accessed. When a link is clicked the datbase is updated to the current date and the link displayed in a new window. I also have the following event to ensure...

Ahhh, good point - will do!

I have a simple ASP database pages to list some useful references and links. All works fine, except for a couple where it appears the whole link data is not being correcly passed. The link is correct in the fiels in the database (set to 255 chars) but when the table displaying the links is...

Thanks for your help Drex, have given a star for your patience and advice.

** Update time ** Carried on trying to fathom it out with no success. Tried everything. Even ended up re-writing application. Finally talked myself into the timing of installation of Service Pack 2 and the problem, so... bit the bullet and uninstalled SP 2 and now... Works fine! Bizarre -...

Thanks, I do have a seperate ASP site online, so if I get time I might try uploading the whole thing there and see if problem persists. What is most frustrating is that I cannot see any logic in the behaviour or potential reasons. Also very little - if anything at all - out there on KB or...

Drex, thanks for your detailed reply. Here are some more comments / observations. I ran the output through the W3C validation and corrected a couple of minor errors but now validates fine. Problem still persists. The querystring section is used to offer a search be letter function. There is...

Update time. Corrected my poor implementation of Querystring as per Drex's advice, and added Expire command. Situation unchanged - PDF links appear, mouse changes, right click and save as works, but links do not open on left click. Copy and paste source and save as HTMl works fine. Time to...

Thanks for the responses - all good stuff. @ Drex - thanks, I had not considered that. It might explain why the ASP 'version' fails but source code as html is fine. @Genimuse - I am not sure that is the answer as PDFs open normally from other web pages and also this one if ran as html but I...

Sorry, forgot to add. If I right click the link and choose "save target as" that works fine, so clealry not a problem with correct link / file location etc. Also, straight copy and paste of source into notepad and saving as html works fine! Any ideas as to why this is happening?
