anchor function for in page links

[eluser]Maglok[/eluser]
The strength of the CI anchor() method lies in that it is based on the concept of in-CI urls. Something you cannot do with plain html as easily. Since you are making an internal link on the same page you can just reference PHP_SELF or even just <a href="#id-1">.

That said I don't use anchor all that much myself. Not a big fan of internal links.
