      Summary

      When a Confluence user creates a page with Anchor links on them, upon clicking the links it doesn't take the user to the accurate position where the Anchor was placed.

      Environment

      This issue was reproduced on Confluence 6.6.8 but can affect other versions.

      Steps to Reproduce

      Scenario 1

      • Create a page with Anchors and links pointing to the Anchor.
      • Validate if the links are pointing to the right section of the page where Anchors are specified.
      • Once the page is created/saved resize the Confluence UI to a smaller dimension.

      Actual Results

      Upon clicking the link when the browser is resized to a smaller dimension, it doesn't take us to the right section as the header of the page seems to be blocking the Anchor location.

      Expected Results

      Links point to the right section on the page

      Scenario 2

      • Create a page with Anchors and links pointing to the Anchor.
      • Place the Anchor at the top and link in the middle of the page
      • Validate if the links are pointing to the right section of the page where Anchors are specified.

      Actual Results

      Upon clicking the link, it doesn't take us to the right section as the header of the page seems to be blocking the Anchor location.

      Expected Results

      Links point to the right section on the page
