Anchors to different page are not working

Question

I create an anchor on a page using the macro, for example #beach and I follow directions on the page we are linking from to say (page name#beach). It just lands on top of page. This is becoming very aggravating. It should work fine and yes it is within the same space.

I need to omit the # symbol in the anchor macro.

This is working for me in Confluence 6.7.0: * create a page "page-with-anchor" * put a lot of lines to the page and then * add the anchor "anchorname" to the bottom of the page * save it * create a page "link-to-anchor" * add a web link to the page: http:///display//page-with-anchor#page-with-anchor-anchorname * add an advanced link to the page: page-with-anchor#anchorname * save it Both links are working. The link links to the anchor.
