For some readon if I access my page like..

index.php?act=View&#section1

It will goto the anchor point <a name="section1">, but once the page is done loading, it will add #section1 to the end of the title bar, which is really weird.

Any Help is appreciated.

Thats not what im talking about.. Say my current set up is like this

<html>
<head>
<title>Site Name</title>
</head>
<body>
<p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>
<a name="section1">
<p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>
</body>
</html>

Now lets say I access this page like index.php?act=View&#section1

It will drop down to section1 and once the page is DONE loading the title bar will change to Site Name#section1

Do you have PHP or JS on the page that is doing this?

Locally, neitehr IE or FF exhibit this behaviour for me... which browser are you seeing this in? Does it still happen if you copy the file locally?

The syntax you're using is wrong. Putting ampersand before the # character will make browsers believe you're about to add another variable rather than look for anchor. Try fixing that if it helps:
Code: 
index.php?act=View#section1

Im using IE, and I just did it without the ampersand and get same result..
