[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] markdown: in html, generated TOC has dead links (#771)

Sun Sep 9 02:53:54 UTC 2018

I installed geany-plugins, and activated mardown plugin.
When I create an `.md` doc like this: 
```
# Test of TOC

**Contents**

1. [Introduction](#Introduction)
2. [Installation](#Installation)

# Introduction

asd;lfk asdklf ja;sldkfj a;ldfk j

(a full page like this) 

# Installation

asd;lfk asdklf ja;sldkfj a;ldfk j

(a full page like this) 

```

Then, in the side pane with Mardown Preview, the links in the table of contents do not work. 
(In my tests ,there were many pages of text in each section, to make sure it would navigate down if  the links in TOC work to work)
If I generate the `html` with `menu/tools/Export Markdown as Html...`, I get this: ( I did not change the template or any of the settings for Markdown plugin)

``` html
<html>
  <head>
    <style type="text/css">
      body {
        font-family: Serif;
        font-size: 12pt;
        background-color: #ffffff;
        color: #000000;
      }
      code {
        font-family: Mono;
        font-size: 12pt;
      }
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>Test of TOC</h1>

<p><strong>Contents</strong></p>

<ol>
<li><a href="#Introduction">Introduction</a></li>
<li><a href="#Installation">Installation</a></li>
</ol>

<h1>Introduction</h1>

<p>asd;lfk asdklf ja;sldkfj a;ldfk j</p>

<p>(a full page like this)</p>

<h1>Installation</h1>

<p>asd;lfk asdklf ja;sldkfj a;ldfk j</p>

<p>(a full page like this)</p>

  </body>
</html>
```
When I open this in a browser (Chrome), the links in TOC don't work either.
If I edit the html so that to have a
```html
<a name="Introduction"></a>
```
besides 
```html
<h1>Installation</h1>
```
then the links work, as expected.

So: is it a problem with my installation, or ...?

It's on Windows 7; I installed the plugins from https://plugins.geany.org/downloads.html
```
19:22:24: Geany INFO		: GTK 2.24.32, GLib 2.54.3

```
