javascript for maintaining vertical position in code behind 1

[adddeveloper]

yes, I know I posted this concerning a recent post, but what was with a control I found on the web.

I'm now trying it on my own.

Here's what I have in my HTML:

<a name="#cb1"></a>
<asp:CheckBox id="cb1" runat="server" Text="Don't show me again." AutoPostBack="True">
</asp:CheckBox>

*****************************************************************

For my code behind, I've got the following in the page_load event:

If Page.IsPostBack Then

Response.Write("<script>location.href="" temp_href=""#""<%=Request.Form[""__EVENTTARGET""]%>"";</script>")

End If



...tried this too, and no luck for the page_load event:

***********************************************************************

If Page.IsPostBack Then

Dim strScript As String

strScript = "<script>"

strScript = strScript & "location.href=""#<%=Request.Form[""__EVENTTARGET""]%>"";"

strScript = strScript & "</script>"

Page.RegisterStartupScript("ClientScript", strScript)

End If

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks!

if you're using Vs 2005, there is a focus property you can use.

tperri,

Thanks...but it's v2003

I have a javascript script sample that acts like SetFocus for .net controls - would you like it? Im sure it will serve your needs.

 

[adddeveloper]

sure...I'm up for anything.

I think since this scenario is really for a cookie in order to now show the user a "new funtionality" page, I'll just go with javascript to set the cookie and not worry about server side code and post-backs.

Thanks!

Response.Write("<script>location.href="" temp_href=""#""<%=Request.Form[""__EVENTTARGET""]%>"";</script>")

Also, never use Response.Write to write anything out to your page. Instead, either use:

1) RegisterStartUpScript method
2) RegisterClientScriptBlock methods
3) A literal/label control and set it's Text property

ca8msm,

Why no Response.Write? Just curious..thanks!

 

[ca8msm]

Lots of reasons with the main one being where it actually writes it in the markup. In most cases, using Response.Write will render invalid HTML documents.

Set SmartNavigation="true

Smart Navigation is too buggy.. There are too many side effects to using it.

 

[adddeveloper]

Yeah, I tried SmartNavigation....not a good thing. Many issues came up using it. Some of my other Javascript stopped working.

Thanks for the suggestion though!
