In a Web page, I can link from one <a> tag to another tag on the same page like this: 

<a href="#somewhere">Click here to go to another location.</a>

...

<a name="somewhere">Welcome to a new location in my page!</a>


This doesn't seem to work with BIRT reports on the RTC Web client. I've got a report that summarizes work items at the top of the page and goes into more detail about those work items at the bottom of the page. I made the summary at the top into links to the details at the bottom. When I click on a link in teh summary, RTC goes to a new page rather than a different place in the same page. (This URL isn't a valid link to a report or other page in RTC, so it gives an error.) 

<a href="#12345_details" target="_self">Click here for details about work item 12345</a>



...



<a name="12345_details" href="/jazz/resource/itemName/com.ibm.team.workitem.WorkItem/12345" id="12345_toplevel" target="_self">Here is some more information about work item 12345</a>


Is there any way to link within a single page with RTC reports? I didn't see a way on the Links and Drill-in Support in RTC Reports wiki page.

With a simple test I wasn't able to make this work either. Can you
please open an enhancement request against the Reports component, and
we'll take a look and see if this is feasible?

Thanks.

One other note: the email notifications of this forum don't see to be working. I made sure that my address was right in my profile, and that I have subscribed to this thread, but I still didn't get a notification that there was a response to my last post.

I created an enhancement request for local links:
