jQuery Forum

We have a modal dialog (actually it is a modal form) with a datepicker on it (jquery-ui version of 1.8. and jquery of 1.4.). Everything works fine, except when user selects a date on a datepicker, the anchor part of the URL (everything after the #) is cleared. This is a major problem because this part of the URL should not be changed when user selects date on modal dialog. 

For your notice, anchor part is not changed, if datepicker is used without modal dialog (on base page). And also, the behaviour described above was not observed with jquery-ui version of 1.7.2 (but there are other problems with datepicker and modal dialog, like z-index - datepicker is shown behind dialog).

Please provide any solution.
