Anchor's reverting to the top in HTML

I've got a page that links to an anchor:

<a name="1"></a>

with the link

<a href="examplepage.htm#1">Link</a>.

When I click on that link within the page the anchor's sitting on, it works as expected. But when I click on that link from another page, it loads the page at the point of the anchor as expected, but then reverts to the top of the page after a fraction of second.

No clue why, and all my research is fogged up by tutorials on how to link to the top of the page, the opposite of what I want to do!

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks, Oli.

You are calling scroll() in the onload function!

<body class="LTR Safari Chrome Safari18 Chrome18 ENUS ContentBody" onload="scroll()">
