Question about Navigation bar links - can bookmarks be added?

Hi I recently migrated a web site authored in Frontpage2000 to
Frontpage2003 and I noticed that there was a feature when setting up a
navigation tree/structure that no longer works.

I used to have a structure which had a set of 5 child pages below the
index/home page and I also added an external link. This external link
was to a bookmark on a page in the format
www.example.com/page.htm#Bookmark, for a total of 6 links on the
navigation bar.
I did all this in FP200

Since upgrading to FP2003, whenever I try to add another external link
with a bookmark
i.e. www.example.com/next_page.htm#Bookmark
it removes the bookmark part and inserts www.example.com/next_page.htm
into the navigation structure.
BTW, the first external bookmark link www.example.com/page.htm#Bookmark
is still there.

So, is there anyway I can add those external bookmark links to the
navigation structure in FP2003, or was I exploiting a "bug" in FP2000.

Any advice would be appreciated.

BTW, the way I have implemented a workaround is to create an htm file
as part of my page,
add that page to the structure, and then the contents of the page are:
<?php header ("Location:www.example.com/next_page.htm#Bookmark"); ?>

This works but its such a cludge because it initiates a redirect, but
I'm sure that there is a more correct way of achieving what I want.
