Open local HTML with parameters

I'm a python beginner and I want my code to open a local HTML page with parameters (e.g. /help/index.html#1). Right now I have the below code:

def openHelp(self, helpid):
    import subprocess
    import webbrowser
    import sys, os
    directory = os.getcwd()
    if sys.platform == 'darwin': # For macOS
        url = 'file://' + directory + '/help/index.html' + '#{}'.format(str(helpid))
        webbrowser.get().open(url)
    else:
        url = 'help/index.html' + '#{}'.format(str(helpid))
        webbrowser.open(url)

The code opens the webpage, however without the parameters (#helpid). Where did I make a mistake? Thanks in advance!

Your code looked fine to me. I tried it and it worked. You have to call it with openHelp("",1). The #helpid parameter was added correctly. Make sure it is a number.
