Topic: Error in navigation menu

In my IG, I adapted the menu.xml file to add some custom Items like this:

 <li class="dropdown">
    <a data-toggle="dropdown" href="#" class="dropdown-toggle">References<b class="caret">
      </b>
    </a>
    <ul class="dropdown-menu">
      <li>
        <a href="mappings.html">Mappings </a>
      </li>
      <li>
        <a href="referencedIgs.html">Referenced IGs</a>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </li>

But, when running the IG Publisher, the final HTML looks like this:

 <li class="dropdown">
    <a data-toggle="dropdown" href="#" class="dropdown-toggle">References<b class="caret">
      </b>
    </a>
    <ul class="dropdown-menu">
      <li>
        <a href="mappings.html">Mappings </a>
      </li>
      <li><a name="889e96f4-7fc5-4edd-84b0-9984a9212462">​</a>
        <a href="referencedIgs.html">Referenced IGs</a>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </li>

Which results in an empty looking entry in the dropdown menu. I have no idea where the <a name="889e96f4-7fc5-4edd-84b0-9984a9212462">​</a> is coming from, can anyone help me? Thanks!

the IG publisher inserts those <a> tags so it can refer to the exact location from qa.html because there's an error with the content at that location.

It's a known effect that it mucks with the menus, but we haven't fixed it because you should fix the underlying error that led to the insertion in the first place

Usually it's a broken link in your menu

It was a broken link... Thanks!
