Ok, I tried to reproduce the issue with the following example file:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>819959.html</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Example for #819959</h1>
<a href='#crash'>'#crash'</a>
<a href="#crash2">"#crash2"</a>
<a href='#crash3'>'#crash3'</a>
<a href="#crash4">"#crash4"</a>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
<div id='crash'>id='crash'</div>
<div id="crash2">id="crash2"</div>
<div name='crash3'>name='crash3'</div>
<div name="crash4">name="crash4"</div>
</body>
</html>
Unexpectedly #crash and #crash2 work, and #crash3 and #crash4 don't.
That's exactly the opposite of what I expected ("name=" being the
classic jump targets for "href=#") and also the opposite of what your
bug report says.
elinks and lynx both show the same behaviour. I've tried all three
browsers on Debian 7 Wheezy, Debian 8 Jessie (from where your original
report seem) and on Debian Unstable. (Debian 9 Stretch and Debian
Unstable at least have the same links2 upstream version, so that
behaviour shouldn't have changed inbetween.)
It would be nice if you cold check the above HTML code against your
system and check if you still can reproduce the issue with that code.
(If you can't reproduce it neither with that code, please attach the
file in question where this issue occurs.)
Regards, Axel
