Before that, what is the real name for the file?

I am assuming your attached file is called "anchor-test.html" and is in 
directory "/home/user".

So the above string doesn't point to the file.

This is wrong. This message does not correspond to the filename you typed. 
It should say:
file:///home/andris/anchor-bug.html%23ACTIONS-APPLY

>If I type "file:///home/andris/anchor-bug.html#ACTIONS-APPLY", it works.

As expected.

That is indeed wrong. It looks to me to be a KHTML bug (for not parsing 
the URL properly), coupled with something in Konqueror.
