Description:
Hello,
On [[Special:Allmessages#powersearchtext]] there is a strange box.
See this screenshot: http://members.kabsi.at/med/ramsch/powersearch.jpg
This seems to be a problem in all wikimedia projects:
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Allmessages#powersearchtext
http://es.wiktionary.org/wiki/Especial:Allmessages#powersearchtext
etc.

I had this problem either with Firefox 1.5.0.1 or Opera 7.53.

Best regards,
Elisabeth Anderl [[:wikt:is:Notandi:Spacebirdy]]

I get a similar error when viewing in IE 5 and above, Firefox 1.0.x and Konqueror

This would be because somebody added an "id" attribute on each thingy,
which is very much the wrong thing to do.

Rob added the anchors / "id" attributes which are very helpfull for referencing
and documentation. Please preserve the anchors.

*note*
a) The box does not apear in [[he:special:Allmessages#powersearchtext]].
b) "Anchors" would not work [[he:special:Allmessages#edithelppage]] there / here.
