link to fragment identifier

[Da...@expeditors.com]

In "raw" HTML, I can create an anchor with a name as a fragment 
identifier, like this:

<a name="HalfWayDownThePage" 
href="http://www.mydns.com/MyNextPage.html">This link goes to 
MyNextPage</a>

Then provide a link to that page like this:

<a href="http://www.mydns.com/MyFirstPage.html#HalfWayDownThePage">This 
link goes to the middle of MyFirstPage</a>

But when I try to do that in my Java code for Tapestry, it doesn't work:

public void gotoMidOfFirstPageAction(IRequestCycle cycle)
{
        cycle.activate("MyFirstPage#HalfWayDownThePage");
}

The above throws an exception.

Is there any way to do this in Tapestry?

If you use the built-in link components (Action/Direct/PageLink etc) then 
specify the "anchor" parameter like:
<a jwcid="@PageLink" page="Home" anchor="HalfWayDownPage"> .....
It generates the link's URL with "#HalfWayDownPage" appended to it.

(IRequestCycle.activate() expects only a page name. Maybe RedirectException 
allows an anchor...)
