[Pro] Anchors on page not working on Firefox or Explorer

Google gave me this: [Solved] Firefox Anchor Links

I’ve done this type of thing before, so it is eminently doable.

All an anchor is, is a unique id tag-- for example:

<div id="item5">

The way Freeway has created them for you is

<a id="AnchorName">

which isn’t working for Firefox because some of these items are floated and technically unreachable. The reason it works in Safari/Chrome because those browsers are forgiving the hell out of your layout issues.

But since you now know that a link anchor is just a unique name identifier, you can manually target the container which should bypass some of your problems:

<a href="#identifier">Go to This Thing</a>
...
<div id="identifier">
    <h3>You Are Now Here</h3>

Because of your sticky menu, you will need to use padding or margin at the top to offset it under the menu when it scrolls to the top.

For the long term, I recommend you experiment with different ways to create a layout like this where you have more control over the code that Freeway produces. Simpler, leaner code will make for more successful outcomes.
