Calling javascript function in masterpage file using RegisterClientScript problem

[baburk]

Hi all,

when I call the javascript method from code behind file of the same page it works fine.

ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, Page.GetType(), "Scroll", "ScrollToPosition();", true);

But when i put the JavaScript method in the masterpage, there the problem occurs.



When I press the button1,

It scrolls to the new position and shows the alert message Script from master page.

When i press OK it returns back to the bottom ie. to the position of the button1



The master page coding is like this.

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
</asp:ScriptManager>


<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
    <ContentTemplate>

                    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
                            function ScrollToPosition()
                            {
                                var pnlErrorMessage = document.getElementById('ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_pnlErrorMessage');
                                var x = pnlErrorMessage.offsetLeft;
                                var y = pnlErrorMessage.offsetTop;

                                 alert("Script from master page");


                                window.scrollTo(x, y);
                            }

                    </script>

                    <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
                    </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
                </ContentTemplate>
            </asp:UpdatePanel>
        </div>

Why this happens?



How to rectify it.
