named anchors not working in safari

Question

Hi there, can anyone explain why named anchor tags would not work in safari but work fine in other browsers: ie, ff, opera, chrome.

I have some links to different areas of the same page and nothing happens when clicking on them in safari only. All the other browsers mentioned take me to that area of the page.

I have tried using both the id and the name attribute for the anchors but neither makes any difference.

As you have posted no code (what-so-ever):

LINK (what you click on):

<a href="#alink">Scroll To alink Section</a>

ANCHOR (further down the page):

<a name="alink">&nbsp</a>
