However watch out for including other special characters in the anchor: http://foo.com/path#my#1anchor Will confuse most parsers and is probably a syntax error anyway. Also watch out for the query part of the URI, which needs to be encoded differently. http://foo.com/path?a=#1,b=#2#anchor Is also incorrectly encoded.
