Named anchor tags are now causing unexpected results in Firefox 5.0. The problem happens when we link to a page that has a named anchor, like this: "http://www.mysite.com/page/#link"

On the resulting page is an anchor tag like this: <a name="link"></a>

Upon visiting the link, it causes the content of the container where the target link resides to be cutoff. This has never happened in previous versions of Firefox. We've tested the same exact links in Google Chrome and Safari and they work as expected (the layout is not affected).

Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox.
