Linking to #id is being stripped

Hello!

I’m sure this probably an obvious case of new user over looking, but I can’t seem to find the solution by searching, so I turn to the experts.

I am wanting to link to a certain point on my page, so normally i would code the link like this
<a href="page.html/#PointOnPage"

with “#PointOnPage” being the ID of a div on somewhere on the page.

However, and again I’m new to WordPress so probably just missing something… When I create a link like this on my wordpress site, the “#PointOnPage” is being stripped out of the link when the link is clicked…

is there anyway to fix this? or an easier way of doing it?

Thanks in advance!
