using anchors in includes

[jeff5656]

I did some googling and it seems you cannot include a file with an anchor:

 

i.e include "hello.php#foo";

 

How do you guys go back to the middle of the page of an included file?  Do you just not include files with anchors?

 

I wanted to run my entire site inside index.php and just use includes to diplay the appropriate file, but I also need anchors to go to the middle of the page on some of those files.

It doesn't work like that. Since you're including the file into index.php, the anchor passed into the original URL applies to any of the included content as well; there's no need to pass it into the files.

Thank you that is correct I was not thinking that the included file is just dumping in html/php code into the parent file.
