      Hi,

      I want to create links to a header and to anchors inside a page without depending on the title...

      I want:
      http://my-confluence/x/TAJn#mya
      or
      http://my-confluence/x/TAJn#TAJn-mya

      But not:
      http://my-confluence/display/Play/Anchor+test#Anchortest-mya
      http://my-confluence/x/TAJn#Anchortest-mya
      ("Anchor test" is the title of the Page, so if I change the title the link is broken...)

      As workaround I'm using
      Html inside the page with:
      <a name="mya"></a>My nice anchor

      It would be nice if this could added to the anchor macro.
