Firefox 3.6.8 doesn't work with an anchor, it rolls down to the page's bottom (http://www.autostitkok.hu/tozsde3.html#jelentkezes) while other browsers (IE8, Chrome, Opera) work properly.

There is an anchor in one of my websites.

Firefox 3.6.8 doesn't "stop" at the anchor if I use an anchored link, but rolls down to the bottom of the page.

If I click into the address bar of the browser, and hit enter, the browser jumps to the right place, but obviously this isn't the way it supposed to work...

I asked other users and they have the same experience with this link, so the problem can't be my computer.

Other browsers work properly.

I tried Opera, Google Chrome, and IE8.

I was told, using id instead of name in the anchor tag would solve the problem, but it didn't... :-(

Works fine here if I click that link in your above post.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems

I turned off all the add-ons, but it still didn't work. Other users confirm too, that this problem exists. Hopefully mozilla developers will pay attention to this post.
