When an achor tag is defined like this - what might be going on?
There is no such thing like "an anchor tag". The code below is an (X)HTML
anchor (an [X]HTML `a' element without defined `href' attribute value but
with defined `name' or `id' attribute value), period.
Why would someone assign the id a value associated with a JavaScript
method?
Unknown.
Or is something else going on?
Yes.
This comes from a Google Groups web page.
Incidentally, at least client-side Google code is strongly recommended
against as positive Web development reference base around here.
<a class=st
id="watchcomp.lang.javascript@62fc29b86239eb3c">so mething</a>
So there is an *invalid* `id' attribute value (the character `@' is not
allowed in there[1]) that contains the name of this newsgroup, which
contains the string "javascript". I wonder how you came to the conclusion
this would have anything to do with scripting. It would have to contain
"javascript
:" to have even a remote chance of doing that.
