title: Is it possible to link (via #) to a destination within a PDF using URL parameters with Google Chrome?
body: <p>The <code>#</code> operator is often used to refer to an anchor in HTML code. For example like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="http://www.example.com/mypage.html#myanchor"&gt;
    Open mypage.html and auto scroll down to myanchor
  &lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have created a pdf which contains a so called <a href="http://forums.adobe.com/thread/438777" rel="nofollow"><code>destinations</code></a>. One of the destinations is named mydestination. I would like to deep link to this destination and wrote the following code: </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="http://www.example.com/mydoc.pdf#mydestination"&gt;
    Open mydoc.pdf and auto scroll down to mydestination
  &lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I click on the link in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, mydoc.pdf is opened and scrolled down to the destination <code>mydestination</code>. When I click on the link in Google Chrome  mypage.pdf is opened and not scrolled down. </p>
  
  <p>This alternative syntax using <code>nameddest</code> also works fine in IE and FF and not in Chrome:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="http://www.example.com/mydoc.pdf#nameddest=mydestination"&gt;
    Open mydoc.pdf and auto scroll down to mydestination
  &lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As a workaround I implemented the following solution:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="http://www.example.com/mydoc.pdf#page=2"&gt;
    Open mydoc.pdf and auto scroll down to page 2
  &lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I click on the link in IE, FF and Chrome, mydoc.pdf is opened and scrolled down to the beginning of page 2. </p>
  
  <p>So Google Chrome is able to scroll down based on an argument supplied after the <code>#</code> operator. Is it possible to set this argument in such a way that it will scroll down to a destination?    </p>
