Pagination with anchor in URLs

Hi, I'm using standard rails pagination (I know it's not perfect but it suits me humble needs). I want to add an anchor to the url. Like making article/2?page=5 to article/2?page=5#content

I haven't found an option in the paginator. Can someone help me please?

Thanks very much.

Sorry, but you misunderstood me. I want that a command like <%= pagination_links(@slide_pages) %> appends #content to all URLs it generates. So that you have <a href="article/2?page=5#content"> for example.

Just add something like this in your application_helper.rb: (modify the next and previous to add #content.) So in your view you would call <%=pagination(@slide_pages)%>.

def pagination(pages)
  rvalue = "<span id=\"pagination\">"
  if pages.current.previous
    rvalue << link_to('Previous page', { :action => 'list', :page => pages.current.previous})
    rvalue << "&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;" if pages.current.next
  end

  if pages.current.next
    next_page = pages.current.next

    page_no = next_page.to_i - 1
    rvalue << %(pg. #{page_no} of #{pages.length})
    rvalue << "&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;"
    rvalue << link_to('Next page', { :action => 'list', :page => next_page})

  end
  rvalue << "</span>"
  rvalue
end

Thanks, it works
