JavaDoc generates links like this:
docs/api/java/applet/AppletContext.html#setStream(java.lang.String,_
java.io.InputStream)
where _ represents a space.
Note:
The HTML 4.01 spec section 6.2 states that anchor names must begin
with a letter a-z, A-Z, and may be followed by any number of letters,
digits 0-9, hyphens -, underscores _, colons :, and periods .. So lead
_ are not permitted. All numeric anchors are not permitted.
Note space, ( ) , are all illegal characters! Further Sun does not
even URL encode them.
So Sun is generating invalid HTML. This a bloody nuisance because it
means links into Sun JavaDoc won't validate.
