hello

I'm using <base href="..."> on a HTML file, but there's one link like:
<a href="#" onClick="..."> that should not follow this "base href"... and if I put the full URL on the href it will load the page again instead of just move to top (because of "#")... any ideas different from changing all other links and removing the "base"?

thanks

Try changing "#" to "javascript:void()".
I'm not so sure it will get around the <base> problem, but its worth a try.

The void should work. In fact, I'm pretty sure thats what you need to do.

edit: Sorry, I posted this the same time you posted your reply that said it would work.
