Is my understanding correct, that I cannot use something like <a href="#Contact">Contact</a> in the host-page for my GWT app and have it work correctly with the GWT History management in IE 6 through 8? I read somewhere that I have to have my GWT app go through the entire loader html page and replace all hrefs with GWT links?
What I'm seeing in IE7 is that either the browser refreshes the whole page when I click one of the #-links or the GWT History ValueChangeHandler doesn't get called, but the url gets updated silently.
I do have the iframe in the hostpage and everything works beautifully in all other browsers I tested.
It unfortunately is.
