Link to file with # symbol in using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start

Open original thread
Hiya,

I am currently working on an implementation of a local help system with links which are in the following format:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("file:///D:/Folder/Default.htm#Product.htm")


However when the user clicks the button which loads this, it only loads up to the # symbol and doesn't show the rest. The path shown in the browser is file:///D:/Folder/Default.htm. I've tried internet links with the # symbol in and they're fine, it's just links to local files which don't work. Can anyone offer an alternative library to use so I can use it in this way?

When answering a question please:
  1. Read the question carefully.
  2. Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar.
  3. If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
  4. Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.
