Anchor element not working in html

Question

I have to complete a project that I havent been working on for ages ;-) Since then we changed from using firefox to chrome.

Now. I have a table and each table row has an own anchor that allows me to jump to a specific row. This code used to work, but it seems something has changed.

<a name="row-36"></a><tr onclick="document.location =  ....

I also tried

<div id="row-36"></div><tr onclick="document.location = 

but when I call that anchor from the link the page always jumps to the middle

http://server/index.php#row-36

Any Idea? Does chrome treat those anchors differently?

Answer 1

Neither an <a> nor a <div> can be a sibling element of a <tr>.

If you want to link to a <tr>, then link to it. Give the <tr> an id.
