On help no one found it interesting enough to give it a try, though it's really simple. I guess the problem is the # character handled specially when the default browser is invoked via the shell on Windows. Here's the problem reposted: Subject: browse-url drops fragment identifier from file urls on Windows? Do you also see this? Try this call with a local html file with a fragment appended to the url (e.g. #top): (browse-url "file://localhost/stuff/a.html#top") For me the #top part is not there when the URL is opened in the browser. Does it happen only on Windows? Is there a workaround for this?
