IFRAME Issue

webgs · Jul 20, 2006

I'm using <IFRAME> in a middle column of a static HTML page. I'm calling a second HTML page in the <IFRAME> that includes a web form. The form is quite long and as a result I have to scroll down to get to the submit button. When I submit the form, my browser window stays focused at the point where my submit button was on the previous page. My "thank you" message loads at the top of the page and I need to scroll up to see it. This also happens with standard links. Does anyone know of a way to tell the resulting screen to focus at top like an anchor tag does? I've thought of using the "onload" function in the <body> tag but cannot get it to work.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Create an onsubmit function for the framed form, and before the function submits the form, execute:

Code:

window.parent.scrollTo(0,0);
