I am using an Iframe to show a portion of the contents from another one of my webpages. Right now when my main webpages loads, the IFRAME is not scrolled that is the right scrollbar is all the way to the top.

I would like the right scroll bar of my IFRAME to be scrolled down to a specified amount everytime when the main page loads. Could someone help me with a simple javascript that will allow me to specify and adjust exactly how far down the right scroll bar will be when the main page loads?

Thanks,

Jeff

Bookmarks won't work. I need to be able to tell the IFRAME how far to sroll the the right vertical bar onloading. This will require help with Javascript. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Look at the scrollLeft, and scrollTop properties.
The code may need to reside in the page loading in the iframe, I have not tried it otherwise.

You specify the amount of scroll in pixels.
You can use scrollWidth and scrollHeight to determine how wide or tall the window is if you need to more accurately calculate the position to scroll to.



At my age I still learn something new every day, but I forget two others.

Guys,

This is what I have:

The page that loads into the IFRAME is called "thescript.asp" and contains the following:
<html>
<body>
<script src="</script>
</body>
</html>


The actual IFRAME page:
<html>
<body>
<iframe src="thescript.asp" marginwidth="1" name="pulse" marginheight="1" width="544" height="160" border="0" frameborder="0" ></iframe>
</body>
</html>


The main content comes from the javascript src= and I have no control over the content. Bookmarks won't work. I just want the Iframe to scroll down automatically. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jeff

Your original post stated that it was one of your web pages but now you say you have no control over it, please clarify.
