Yes, I agree that going to the top of a page works. But I'm
beginning to
think that maybe I'm one of about three people that has ever tried
hard
enough to use anchors that it resulted in filing a bug report.
That answers
my question, and would also explain why Apple does not seem to be
in any
hurry to fix it.
Workaround: Don't use help anchors since they seem to be broken in
both
Cocoa and CoreFoundation. Break Help pages into smaller pieces, so
the
desired Help will always be at the top of a page, and use links
between
them.
openHelpAnchor:inBook: sort of works for me (with a little help of
the user):
1. App calls openHelpAnchor:inBook:; the Help page opens, but does
not scroll to the anchor.
2. User clicks on some link in the help page.
3. App calls openHelpAnchor:inBook: again and now the Help page does
scroll to the requested anchor.
4. From now on everything works perfectly.
Gerriet.
