Hi, I have a simple question about using anchors in links. Example link: [[SamplePage#SampleAnchor]] Is there any possible way known to get information about the used anchor in "SamplePage"? For example with ParserFunction {{#ifeq: <here the anchor text>| compare text|.....}}? Greetings Frank Baxmann

Hi Frank, Couldn't you just do: [[SamplePage#SampleAnchor| Text you want here]] Sent from my iPad

Hi Chris, no you misunderstood. The example link [[SamplePage#SampleAnchor]] is not on the "SamplePage". If someone clicks the link he gets the page from URL .../index.php/SamplePage#SampleAnchor I want to switch things on the SamplePage and want to check if it is possible to get the #SampleAnchor info to use for switching. If you know some other way to transfer a param from the calling page to the called page, that would be fine too. But I never read that this is possible in MW...

Hi Frank, The closest, I think, you'll find to what you're looking for is some type of Semantic Mediaiwki call or Cargo call (new mediawiki extension). I don't think it's possible in a standard Mediaiwki. Sent from my iPad

Hi, as far as I know it's not possible to achieve that in pure wikitext, but the :target pseudo-class can help you. Suppose you have a page like this: <div class="section" id="mysection"> Hi! </div> <div class="section" id="yoursection"> Hello! </div> <div class="section" id="anothersection"> Lorem ipsum. </div> and a MediaWiki:Common.css like this: .section { display: none; } .section:target { display: inherit; } All sections will be hidden by default, but when visiting the page with #mysection, #yoursection, #anothersection, the selected one will magically appear.

Thx, this was just a sample. In detail I have 10 different links on the calling page. All to the same SamplePage. But on sample page I want to call a template, and each of the 10 links shall pass a different parameter into the template call. On 25.01.2015 19:24, Ricordisamoa wrote:

btw. if someone gives me the php class where I can find this info it's enough too. I use it in programming an extension anyway... On 25.01.2015 19:24, Ricordisamoa wrote:
