Anchors within Ditto generated pages? (Using friendly URLS)

I am trying to use gwidgets for expanding inline content. It requires and anchor for each inline item. My page titles for this section of the site are short but relevant so I thought they would work well. I plugged them in and... my anchor becomes site_root/#[+pagetitle+] so I did some static coding to make the link proper - site_root/page.php#[+pagetitle+]. That keeps me on the right page, but nothing happens. Anything I am missing?

here is my chunk for the ditto template..

<div id="proleft">
   <a href="#[+pagetitle+]" class="gexpander"><h3>[+faq_q+]</h3></a>
		<div id="[+pagetitle+]" style="display:none;">
			[+faq_a+]
		</div>
</div>

and here is the html output..

</div><div id="proleft">
   <a href="q_and_a.php#test_a" class="gexpander"><h3>click to test</h3></a>
		<div id="test_a" style="display:none;">
			Inline expanded content!
		</div>

thanks!

hmm.. ok so I created a new plugin and posted the code from that post. I see no difference in the returned code, or end result. I removed the page i coded in, but that took me back to my original problem. Then I thought, well maybe it is working. So I clicked on an anchor for the top of the page, scrolled to the bottom and hit refresh, nothing happened. I recall that should take me to the anchor (back at the top of the page).

Might I have some conflicting CSS?

...I’ll take a look at everything again in the meantime.

Thanks

Did you check the required event in the plugin configuration tab ?

Honestly, I have no idea what you are asking.. I see nothing about required events on the any of the plugin tabs sad

... nevermind, I installed the plugin right. FF was just being crappy. well I am back to issue of my anchors not working. The pages load and the links are proper now, but nothing happens when I click on an anchor (well the URL changes).

So could this be a CSS issue?

is the page in question.

if I can get this to work I am going to trash thickbox because it is a bit bloated compared to gwidgets..

hmm the css for gwidgets broke a lot of my pages >:(

I have removed the thickbox css and I no longer have the issues created by the gwidgets css

That’s an awful lot of JS libraries loaded, could there be a conflict somewhere amongst them?

Yes, I did have a lot of js! I have removed over half of it since posting. I did make a minimal page under the home menu, and that does not work either. - But I do have a lead. I will update if it changes anything.
