User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

Instead of jump to the requested named anchor, Firefox jumpt to the first child
named anchor element.
Example (doctype and head parts skipped):

<body>
<div id="header">
<a href="#content" title="Skip navigation">Skip navigation</a> <!-- use this
link to reproduce bug -->
</div>
<div id="content"> <!-- jump should be to here -->
<h2>Content Title</h2>
<p>Content text</p>
<!-- Note: To reproduce this bug better add lots of text here, so it actually
forces page to scroll.-->
<a href="#header" title="Go to top of the page">Top of the page</a> <!-- this is
the incorrect place for jump -->
</div>
</body>

End of example.
Doctype and head part were skipped in the above example as they don't affect the
bug - tested with all doctypes.

This bug affects Mozilla as well.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create html page with body part as described in Details. Add lots text were
pointed.
2. Open the page and click on "Skip navigation" link


Actual Results:  
Jump to "Top of the page" link

Expected Results:  
Jump to "content" anchor (div id="content")

This works for me using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US;
rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050412 Firefox/1.0+
testcase is showing bug in Firefox1.0.2
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-DE; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050321 Firefox/1.0.2

is working in Mozilla Trunk
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050329
Tested again with Firefox and Mozilla
* Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317
