Hi all,

I have a long Web page which need vertical scrolling. If I work on the GUI
at bottom of Web page, e.g. clicking a button or selecting an item in List
box, the page refreshes. After page refreshing, the page is automatically
located at the top. This is inconvenient as I need to scroll back to the
location at which I work. Can it be located at the original location, instead
of the top, after the page refreshing ?

Thanks in advance.

Try enabling SmartNavigation=true on the ASP.NET web page. This will auto
generate a script that will return the user back to the position he was
before the PostBack. Although this script works generally on IE only.

Using HTML anchors could do the trick. Just tell it in the URL to goto a
specific anchor.

Or better, create a JavaScript function that will accomplish this and wrap
it in a .NET function.
