Firefox:
http://example.com/about/#anchor -> http://www.example.com/about/#anchor

Internet Explorer 6-8:
http://example.com/about/#anchor -> http://www.example.com/about/

Why is the anchor dropped in IE and what can I do about it? (Query string is not dropped, only the #xyz part)

I am running Wordpress with the .htaccess below, but the problem is probably to be found elsewhere?

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

Is a PHP header or javascript redirect my only option? Thanks for all hints.
