***SOLVED***Bookmarks not working in Chrome

Post by donjohnson24 »

I know I have asked about this before, and accepted then that bookmarks do not work in Chrome for some reason, although they do in other browsers.
However, when viewing another site I run on Chrome, bookmarks DID work.
On http://www.boga.co.uk/ hovering on one of the options - Registers and Ranks - under the Guide item in the Menu shows that a click will link to guide.html#LayoutGrid4 and indeed it DOES do so.
On the page on my other site giving problems - https://www.donjohnson24.co.uk/palmmidi.html - I noted that I had used bookmarks rather than links to Layout Grids, so suspected that this might be the reason why they do not work.
I therefore changed a couple of the links in the PAGE CONTENTS list to go to Layout Grids - Palm Vx Digitizer Problem and Normal Setting for Hotsync - but they do NOT work, just like the links to bookmarks.
I compared the properties of both pages to see if anything affected the results - to no effect.
I note that if I put any of the link addresses in the browsers address bar - bookmarks or LayoutGrids - they DO work
If anyone could spare the time to check my results using Chrome, and possibly come up with an explanation, I would be most grateful.

It looks like you have added custom scripts to the page.
Maybe that is the reason why it does not work?

Code: Select all

<script src="ups/jquery.localscroll.js"></script>
<script src="ups/jquery.scrollto.js"></script>
Note that most templates use bookmarks and they all seem to work fine in Chrome.

At last a solution! Its been bugging me for ages!
I obviously used Ultimate Page Scroller by Ariel Flesler at some time, but as the extension was not marked as visible, I did not notice it was still present. Deleting this 'no longer supported' extension restored sanity.
Thank you so much Pablo - will you mark this topic as Solved ?
