Is it possible to send a Django HttpResponseRedirect but to a certain ID in the HTML page?

Question

I have this simple view where the user confirms or declines an offer:

def confirmoffer(request, offerid):
    offer = Offer.objects.get(id = offerid)
    if 'confirm' in request.GET:

        offer.traveler_approval = True;
    else:
        offer.traveler_approval = False;
    offer.save()

    return HttpResponseRedirect("/dashboard#excursionoffers/")

I'm trying to return the user to her dashboard but to a certain part instead of the begining of the page thus I did this: dashboard#excursionoffers/ however a slash gets automatically added to look like this:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/dashboard/#excursionoffers/

Which renders the id with no effect.

That's the url for the dashboard:

url(r'^dashboard/$', views.dashboard, name="dashboard"),

In your urls.py, you may have added this dashboard/$.

Remove slash at the end to make it look like dashboard$. It may help

Alternatively, keep the slash in the url, and redirect to `/dashboard/#excursionoffers` – Alasdair Jun 01 '17 at 12:41
