Linking to a wiki's anchor
(1) By anonymous on 2020-07-22 19:07:05 [link] [source]
Is there a way to link to another page's anchor with the markdown syntax?
If i have WikiPage1 with:
### <a name="section1"></a>Section 1
Lorem ipsum ...
### <a name="section2"></a>Section 2
More lorem ipsum...
how can I provide a direct link to WikiPage1#section2 from WikiPage2?

Like a regular link, e.g:
[Section 2](/wiki?name=WikiPage1#section2)

That works. Thank-you.
I was worried that having the repo in a "sub directory" (e.g. fossil-scm.org/home/) might cause an issue with the /wiki link but it seems to be handled correctly.

i believe Ogun's answer is correct, but here's a just-FYI pedantic sidebar:
### <a name="section1"></a>Section 1
The use of "name" in that way was deprecated/obsoleted in HTML5. The HTML standard now requires "id" instead. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/40739056 for more details.

Thanks for the tip. I've updated this to be <span id="section1"></span>
