Sorry guys my verbalisation of this is obviously a little below par.

It the is output I'm printing from my CGI script I want to anchor.

i.e When I print an HTML template to STDOUT or use a print statement to output my page.

Oh well it probably can't be done server side. cheers

UPDATE: The Javascript from dws works well. I also discovered I can put anchorlinks in my form actions for the same effect. i.e <form name="" method="post" action="/cgi-bin/script.cgi#anchorname">
