ASP.net Postback - Scroll to Specific Position

Question

I have an ASP.net WebForms page that has a lot of content on the top of the screen. It has a link button that will post back to the page and show another section of the page

Answer 1

I have

<asp:MultiView ID="mvAriza" runat="server">
      <asp:View ID="View14" runat="server"> 
         ............ .......
      </asp:View>
</asp:MultiView>

on *.aspx page. And on the *.aspx.cs page on a button click.

Page.SetFocus(mvAriza.ClientID);

It works great.

Answer 2

In your case I suggest you to keep the default value of Page.MaintainScrollPositionOnPostBack, and use the pure javascript scrolling function

function scrollToDiv()
{
    document.getElementById('yourDiv').scrollIntoView();
}

And call it at the page startup with a little delay of 1ms (pure javascript again)

setTimeout(scrollToDiv, 1);

And finally call it from the C# code behind, with the RegisterStartupScript (js executed after all the page has been loaded) :

ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(Page, typeof(Page), "ScrollToADiv", "setTimeout(scrollToDiv, 1);", true);

Like this, it will bypass any asp automatic scrolling

Answer 3

Page.MaintainScrollPositionOnPostback = true seems to work just fine.

Answer 4

You can use the code below if you have an anchor for the location:

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "hash", "location.hash = '#MOVEHERE';", true);

Answer 5

This scroll automatically to desired Div in asp.net Control This is Function call it from Where you Want and also Download Java script file

OnClientClick="return scrollGrid()"

function scrollGrid1() { $('html,body').animate ( { scrollTop: $('#Div1').offset().top }, 'slow' ) }

Answer 6

Page.MaintainScrollPositionOnPostBack = true; should take you back to the same position on the screen, but you could use AJAX, or you could use SetFocus() to focus on a specific control after the postback:
