UC websites – direct linking to an expanding box or to a tab

The URL found in the heading of an expanding box (has a red + at the right) or of a tab can be used to link directly to that box or tab.

Box examples, http://www.canterbury.ac.nz/its/printing-and-copying/#collapse16282 and http://www.canterbury.ac.nz/its/computer-workrooms/#collapse22664

Tab example http://www.canterbury.ac.nz/its/accessing-your-email/#16349

Linking like this didn’t work when the new websites were first rolled out (back then such a link just sent you to the page as a whole), but now that it does it could come in handy when directing students to relevant information on AskLIVE or via email. I’ve tried it out successfully on Chrome, Firefox and IE.
