If you are jQuery fan and building a web site with some animations you will (most likely) end up using hash tag links. But if you ever try to open them using external souce link you may bump into a very unpleasant surprise. Using the ’notorious’ Internet Explorer such links, once opened will automatically refresh the page at your very first click.

Look inside for a very simple workaround to this little, but quite annoying bug.
