The problem seems to be that name="#something". IE seems to be forgiving of the author's mistake and treats this as name="something". No one else does this, and I don't think it's a very high priority for us to follow IE. (It would be nice and friendly, of course, to do this someday.)

In my opinion, there is no room for emulating new IE bugs as it isn't absolutely necessary in this case because other big engines - Gecko and Presto don't do that as well. So it's an evangelism bug. The site should be fixed.

After testing the site today I can say that the issues on that page were fixed. Closing as fixed.
