Navigation Problem

[Rose Girl]

Hi,

This may be a simple problem, but i need some help on this.

When i load a new page, i want it to automatically navigate to a specific
position in the page. (like a hyperlink to a heading in the page)

How can i do this.

Thanks for your help

window.scrollto (x,y);

window.scrollto (0,0) will scroll to the top.

window.scrollto (0,1000) will scroll 1,000 pixels down.

To scroll to a specific element you'll need to calculate the position of
that element. There's a prettygood script here:

A much SIMPLER way to do this is to simply use the <A NAME="marker"></A>
tag and then at the bottom of your document put...

window.location .href="pagename .html#marker" where pagename.html is the
name of your page and #marker is the name of your name tag.

Good luck!
