My html anchor is as follows.

<a name="template-8"/>
<h4 class="template" id="template-8">A title</h4>

As far as I know the browser should skip to the element matching either name or id attributes.

When I type in the url http://my.site.com/templates#template-8 safari jumps down the page as expected.

However when linking as below the anchor does nothing. Chrome, Opera, IE7 and Firefox all work.

<a href="http://my.site.com/templates#template-8">A link</a>

Safari is version 5.0, could this be a safari bug?
