Hi!

I'm using Sunrise to convert some html documentation to plucker format. However, I think anchor names containing spaces are not getting referenced properly in the plucker document. For example, say the html contains the following anchor:

Code:

<a name="System Requirements"></a>

and it is referenced by:

Code:

<a href="#System Requirements">System Requirements</a>

then when I click on this link in the plucker document Sunrise spits out, the viewer goes to the beginning of the document instead of to the anchor. I thought at first it was because the A element has empty content. But other empty anchors work as long as there are no spaces in the name.

Am I right about this? It seems Plucker Desktop is handling the document correctly, but I like the output of Sunrise better, and it's faster.
