Href Help needed

[Rose Girl]

Can someone help me on this little problem. I am using the following
code in
an xsl page.

The directed page is written in the javascript: submitOnClick() ;

<a href="#">
<xsl:attribut e name="onClick"> submitOnClick() ;</xsl:attribute>
Main Menu
</a>

The problem is that when href is given the # sign, the moment i click
on the link it first jumps to the top of the page, before moving to
the directed page.
This can be seen when the page is longer than the screen size.

Is there any other solution to rectify that problem ..........

Thanks for your time
Rose

If you don't return false on the onclick event, then the link is
followed, so the correct code would be

<a href="#">
<xsl:attribut e name="onclick"> submitOnClick() ;return false;</xsl:attribute>
Main Menu
</a>

Note that some visitors may not follow JavaScript links (including
search engine spiders!) so you may want to put a link to an actual page
in the href attribute.
