mod_rewrite keeps anchor link

I want example.com/site/about#whoami to be redirected to example.com/site/?page=about#whoami using mod_rewrite directives, but I have no idea on how to do that

NOTE: Anchor character # may be passed, but it has no effect on the substitution URL unless the redirection is to a page where the anchor exists. Although Apache cannot do the scrolling of the window down to the anchor, the browser will do it in that case. Here is some Apache information about redirecting anchors

You may try something like this:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^site/(.*)/?   site?page=$1  [NC,NE,L]

Maps

http://example.com/site/anything

To

http://example.com/site/?page=anything

String site is assumed to be fixed.

String anything may contain an anchor # and it will be passed in the substitution URL.
