Adding anchor to a form submission
I have a form that when I hit the submit button, it will fire a listener.
That listener will then return a page that I want to go to.
I want to actually go to an anchor on that page rather than the head of the
page.
In a @DirectLink you can add the anchor parameter to the url for the link
(this convincing the browser to go to an achor that is eventually rendered by
the result of the direct link)
@Form has no such parameter. Is there any other way to get an anchor rendered
in the form response url?

I am not sure I understand you. If I take what you say at face value, (ie I
replace the submit button with a direct link) that will not work
The form is full of input fields, which get loaded into the object that is the
subject of the form during the rewind cycle.
The Direct Link is produced during the initial render, so any parameters it
may have will have the initial value of all the fields not the filled in
ones. So even if I included my object as a parameter of the direct link, it
would have the original values in it. So no way to update the database!!

Do you have to use a submit button? Why not just use a DirectLink?

I mean RedirectException, not PageRedirectException. The former
accepts a URL.

How do you add the anchor? The JavaDocs for PageRedirectException don't give
much of a clue

Then I guess you may try to throw a RedirectException and put the
anchor into the URL.

I took the required="yes" out and the page content produced looked good, so I
don't know what the problem is.
Unfortunately, konqueror doesn't actually jump to the correct place ( and was
true before) but much worse, firefox seems loop calling the server for a new
page.
So it looks like I will have to give up on the idea

That looks a good idea, but a couple of things.
I think that should be <input-symbol key="anchor" ...
and I don't know whats wrong but I have put this in my page template
<span jwcid="@Script" script="GoToAnchor.script" anchor="ognl:anchor"/>
and then I get this error
"Script symbol 'anchor' is required, but not specified".
Since this looks exactly like other examples I have seen, I have no idea whats
wrong. Any ideas?

In the response page, try including Script component to insert
a .script file like:
<script>
<symbol key="anchor" class="java.lang.String" required="yes"/>
<initialization>
window.location.hash="${anchor}";
</initialization>
</script>
You may also want to encapsulate it into a GotoAnchor component.
