note that the #target is handled by the browser - NOT by the server.
and this part of the URL is not to the server.

Also there is guarantee where on the screen it will appear.
Some browsers try and move the anchor to the head of the pane, others
just ensure it is visible.

The advice to go for it with static HTML/js is a good one.

And this is possible using CGI.pm.
