What are anchor links?

Why have they been requested?
-Because they can be quite useful if your page contains a Table of Contents, among other things.
How can I make anchor links without a built-in feature?
Even though there is no built-in feature as of yet, there is a way to create anchor links:
| Directions: 1. Go to this website: http://anchor.tmswiki.net/ 2. Type in the anchor you want. Ex. anchor1 3. Type in the text you want displayed in the second box. 4. Press "Make Anchor". Copy and paste the anchor shown on the next page into Easy Edit Mode. Now, all you need to do is add #anchor(insert number of anchor) to the end of the URL, and the anchor link will work.

Alright so I've got the anchor portion working, but its creating the actual link to it that's my problem. When I go to create the link, it will produce a link like "MyPage%23anchor1" instead of "MyPage#anchor1". That difference is causing the site to try and search for a page with the name "MyPage%23anchor1" instead of making the browser go to the anchored link. Any clue whats going on?

I followed the directions that are listed on the Anchor Links page. Once I tested them out after saving, it didn't work properly. I visited the Wetpaint sites listed that used these and theirs are working just fine while mine won't. So can someone please help with my problem?
