# in url not considered in Touch UI author editing mode

I have some urls having # in authoring page. The part after # in the URL is not recognized in authoring mode in touch UI and hence the functionality is breaking. Is there any way to recognize # in touch UI. 

Works fine in classic UI

Hi,

Can you confirm how exactly you're trying to use the # ?

Is it as part of a link - and when you're editing the page (with the touch-optimized UI) you cannot navigate to such a link?

If so, then you'll have to switch to Preview mode. Links are not accessible in the Edit mode. See:

and

I hope that helps, if not feel free to contact us again - preferably with an example of your URL and the behaviour you're seeing.

Seems like touch ui is html5 based. I am able to navigate to URL from links inside the page in preview mode rather than hitting the URL directly
