Alternative to 'bottom of page' function 1

ChrisRChamberlain · Oct 21, 2009

Hi all

Have an application that generates HTML output as a means of monitoring an application process, which subsequently displays in a webbrowser control on a form.

The user need to be viewing the last line of the HTML page each time a new page is created and the webbrowser control refreshed.

The following

Code:

<body onload="goBottom();">

<script type="text/javascript">

function goBottom() {
location.href = "test.html#bottom";
}

</script>

followed by

Code:

<span id="bottom"></span>

at the bottom of the page works.

However this does require Javascript to be enabled.

Any alternatives. please?

TIA

Yes - when loading the page in the web browser control, append "#bottom" to the URL.

I had a feeling this would be one of those 'Oh yes... why didn't I think of that' posts
