Hello, Some people have been experiencing a problem with Computing.Net. They report that if they click on a link in the main forum then click the back button, they will be transported to the top of the main page instead of where they were. This doesn't happen to me. If anyone knows why Computing.Net's HTML might be doing this, I would like to fix the problem. I personally have no idea. Thanks, Justin P.S. Here is the link to the thread that talks about the problem more specifically.

It's likely something internal to the browser. I cannot reproduce the experience. If you wish to experiment, look at something like this. One idea: On every use of the back button (every event which alters the window location really, because I don't think javascript is specific) a function saves the scroll coordinates with the URL string to a cookie. It would need to overwrite any existing data matching that URL. Onload of every page, a method would need to compare the current URL to those on the cookie list and, if found, pull and display the scroll position. This is mimicing window management. It would have to be added to each page.

Did you experiment on older versions of Netscape (ie 4.0)? It seems to me that I ran into a problem similar to this with Netscape . I didn't solve it.

Don, No I haven't tried it on that. However, these people are reporting problems with newer browsers so I don't think that's the problem. anonproxy, If, as you say, it is a problem with the browser, I don't think the procedure you outlined is necessary. I don't tend to create special HTML coding to deal with browser specific problems. I have been considering the possibility that IntelliTXT has something to do with the problem. If it does, I can easily fix that. I just need to figure it out. Justin

No such problem with IE6 Sp1, MyIE2 or Firefox 0.8. Skip

Hello, It must be some setting in the browser causing it. Justin
