Anchor links break when related link not in search result

Noodles12

I have a datatable where I am using anchor links throughout the datatable. The anchor links navigate throughout the same table and I also have search enabled on the page.

Please see my test case below - Search works however when I search for John, I get results B and C. The anchor link to Julie doesn't work since the search results do not include D (Julie is linked to D). Is there a way to make the link work?

A Joe
B John - hyperlinked to B
C Julie (hyperlinked to D) John - hyperlinked to B
DJulie - hyperlinked to D

This makes sense.

The anchor link to Julie doesn't work since the search results do not include D (Julie is linked to D). Is there a way to make the link work?

This is a bit confusing. Not sure how these links actually work. Without seeing what you are doing its hard to offer suggestions. Please provide a test case along with steps to recreate the problem and what you would like to happen instead.

I know. It is a bit confusing. Please ignore. I found a workaround to this problem. I am opening all anchor links in new tab now.

Thanks.
