/*! \class WAnchor Wt/WAnchor Wt/WAnchor
 *  \brief A widget that represents an HTML anchor (to link to other documents).
 *
 * Use an anchor to link to another web page, document, internal
 * application path or a resource (which specifies
 * application-dependent content that may be generated by your
 * application on demand). The anchor may contain a label text, an
 * image, or any other widget (as it inherits from
 * WContainerWidget). If you link to a document or external url, and
 * do not want the application to terminate when the user follows the
 * anchor, you must use \link setTarget(AnchorTarget)
 * setTarget(TargetNewWindow)\endlink. Even for non-HTML documents,
 * this may be important since pending Ajax requests are cancelled if
 * documents are not served within the browser window in certain
 * browsers.
 *
 * \if cpp When linking to a \p resource, the anchor does not assume
 * ownership of \p resource, so that you may share the same resources
 * for several anchors.
 * \endif
 *
 * \if cpp
 * Usage example:
 * \code
 * WAnchor *a;
 *
 * // Create an anchor that links to a URL
 * a = new WAnchor("http://www.webtoolkit.eu/", "Wt web toolkit", this);
 *
 * // Create an anchor that links to an internal path
 * a = new WAnchor(WLink(WLink::InternalPath, "/docs/" + myDocName()), "Doc", this);
 * //   and listen to the corresponding change in internal path
 * WApplication::instance()->internalPathChanged().connect(this, &DocsListWidget::onInternalPathChange);
 *
 * // Create an anchor that links to a resource
 * WResource *r = new PdfResource(this); // serializes to a PDF file.
 * a = new WAnchor(r, "PDF version", this);
 * a->setTarget(TargetNewWindow);
 * \endcode
 * \endif
 *
 * %WAnchor is an \link WWidget::setInline(bool) inline \endlink widget.
 *
 * \note If you set a text or image using one of the API methods like
 * setText() or setImage() or a constructor, you should not attempt to
 * remove all contents (using clear(), or provide a layout (using
 * setLayout()), as this will result in undefined behaviour: the text
 * or image are simply inserted as widgets into the container.
 *
 * <h3>CSS</h3>
 *
 * The widget corresponds to the HTML <tt>&lt;a&gt;</tt> tag and does
 * not provide styling. It can be styled using inline or external CSS
 * as appropriate.
