SYMPTOMS
If an Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) local anchor link links to the bottom of a Web page, the link only refreshes the page unless a character is placed between the HTML  tags at the bottom of the page.

RESOLUTION
Although most local anchor links to the  tags through- out a page work without placing anything between the tags, they do not work with a link to the very bottom of the page. One workaround to this behavior is to type   between the  and  tags.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Explorer version 3.x. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
