Don't put any text in the <a> with only id so that the class isn't need in CSS.

<joar> you should change it to <a id="foo"></a>Generating reports
<joar> so, just create an empty <a> tag before the anchor target
<bkuhn> is that really the "right way" to do it?
<joar> it's the generally accepted way
<bkuhn> oh, ok.
<joar> it's the way sphinx does it, for example
<joar> I think wikipedia does the same

### Comments

Josh Berkus:  I was an early (uncredited) contributor to SQL-Ledger, and part of the fork.  The reasons we created the fork:
- Many known security holes (reference early LedgerSMB releases, which fix these.  They are still not fixed in current SQLLedger)
- Primary developer hostile to outside contributions, and did not credit the contributions he did receive.  Also relicensed contributions without permission.  I know, because some of the contributions were mine.
- Basically the primitive ancestor of LedgerSMB
