Summary 0002740: Contents links in WIkipedia don't work
Revision 2020-05-21 20:25 by Michael Drake
Description Clicking on any link in a Wikipedia Contents section fails to work. There is no visible response; the page doesn't reload, and it doesn't scroll to the relevant heading.
If you Adjust-click to force the link to open in a new window, the window opens with a horizontally restricted work area and a blank section to the right (see attached image), with the page scrolled sideways hiding the area to the left of the main frame e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size#Soviet_variants
 

N.B. If you edit the URL in such a page to remove the anchor and reload, the content then expands back to fill the full width of the page.
