html liks to anchored text on the same web page do not respond in Mozilla Firefox 1.0.7.  Tried using IE v6.0.2800.1106 and the links work fine there.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open listed page of FAQ's
2.Click on question at top of page
3.Should be linked to Q&A portion at bottom of page that corresponds to the same Q

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens on clicking on the question links

Expected Results:  
Should jump to anchored Q&A portion of page

As noted, these links work in IE6.

The problem is in the page, not the browser.

they specify name="#1" instead of name="1"

leaving open to give someone a chance to find something to dupe this against
