named anchors not working appropriate anymore

I am in the middle of developing a website for mobile use with named anchors to navigate through the page. Today I received a FireFox 3.6.10 update and since then it is not working anymore. I use

<p> for the anchor and <a href= "#anchorname">go to my anchor</a>for the link. In FireFox 3.6.10 you have to select the named anchor twice, because at first click the page is being reset to the top position. Only after clicking another time the url is directed to the anchor. This problem is only present in FireFox 3.6.10, I have tested on older versions and other browsers and there my page is functioning as expected.

somewhere the layout for the anchor i provided was filtered, i will post it here again with spaces between the characters used. Remove these to get the real code:

anchor: < p i d = "a n c h o r n a m e "< / p>
