Reload without moving to the top of the page

[Martin RAYROLE]

Hi folks,

Does somebody know how to reload a page without moving to the top of the
page ?

I have tried the two following commands :
1) window.location =document.locat ion;
2) location.reload ();
but, each time, the scrollbar is moved to the top of the page.

Thanks a lot for your help

Perhaps with the reload function, you can add window.scrollBy (x,y) or
scrollTo(x,y) to put the user back where they were??
(you could even use a mouse-coordinates detection script to get the exact
location of their 'click' that makes the page reload).

Hope that helps!

Thanks a lot Jim,

I use it with "window.pageYOf fset" or "document.body. scrollTop" (according to
the browser) to store the current scroll position ... and it works well !

Have a good day
Martin

What browser(s) have you tested this with? The window.page?Off set
properties return 'undefined' in IE 6.
