 ''(Changed in 0.11)'' Note that in Trac 0.10, using e.g. `[../newticket]`  may have worked for linking to the `/newticket` top-level URL, but since 0.11, such a link will stay in the wiki namespace and therefore link to a sibling page.

+ [#?Milestone last occurrence of Milestone]

+ [#/Milestone first occurrence of Milestone] or
+ [#?Milestone last occurrence of Milestone]
+This will also highlight all other matches on the linked page. By default only case sensitive matches are considered. To include case insensitive matches append '/i':

+(Hint: The line numbers displayed in the source browser are links to anchors on the respective lines.)

+Since such links become outdated when the file changes, it can be useful to link using a '#/' pseudo anchor instead:
