    A fix for anchors Adam?

    Anchors definitely do not work in version 6, latest build, and I have thus far received no response.

    Version 6 does seem to help with content getting blown away using mac firefox and safari BUT the anchor name and id attributes get messed up. Reprodcued in your demo site where I make 6 anchors with unique names and then submit and they all get changed to the same name

    In my app I tried creating anchors in PC and Mac Firefox 2 running version 6 and here is what I found

    In this case I made anchors to 6 spots in my content and on submission the anchors <a name="hosting" id="hosting"></a>,<a name="system" id="system"></a>, [and a few more] and <a name="support" id="support"></a>  ALL got written as the last anchor - such that when I opened back up the content in the editor I saw 6 anchors like this <a name="support" id="support"></a>
     
    reproducable in mac and pc firefox 2

    I went and changed in html  the syntax of anchors , and then tried this by hand and what I find is that the system behaves well when there is not an id attribute for the A element such that the following is what the system creates using the anchor tool

    <a name="hosting" id="hosting"></a>
    now this fails to save properly and the anchors get confused.

    when I change the syntax to

    <a name="hosting"></a> (along with the same method for the other anchors in my content)

    then everything works better
