#target in query string not working

Pig

OK, I'm sure it's out there somewhere, but I cannot find any reference about how to get #targets to work with query strings. You cannot search for # on the web, and no one says "pound" or "number sign".

Anyway, I know it can be done. Hell, this forum does it. It doesn't want to work for me though. If I try
page.php?this=that&boo=bah#end
rather than snapping to the <a name=end></a>, it ignores it. I suspect that it things # is part of the var.

I tried it without the query string and it works just fine. Any advice?

Heres a very generic page that i tested out with anchors, and everything seems to work for me

<?php
$self=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
?>
<a name="top">This is the top of the page</a><br />
<a href="<?=$self?>?action=test&what=anchor#end">End Of Page</a> &nbsp; <a href="<?=$self?>?action=test&what=anchor#mid">Mid Of Page</a>
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<p> <a name="mid">middle of page</a><br /><a href="<?=$self?>?action=test&what=anchor&it=works#top">Back To Top</a> </p>
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<p> <a name="end">End Of Page</a><br /><a href="<?=$self?>?action=test&what=anchor&it=works#top">Back To Top</a> </p>
