Maintain scroll position

[dhalupa]

Hi,

I would like to enable feature that web user interface remains vertical scroll position after refresh of page. I have set parameter org.apache.myfaces.AUTO_SCROLL in web.xml to true but it seems to have no efect.

Is there some other way to enable this feature or do I have to implement this on my own?

thx,

Denis

It's on our TODO list. Most of the components we use are not native MyFaces, they are custom components so will not support that property.

Thanks,

Kevin

Has any action happened on this point ? It is particularly annoying for users to continually have to rescroll after every page refresh.

No sorry, if you raise an issue for it in JIRA and it gets voted on enough then it may climb up the priority list - mostly our UI dev work has been concentrating on the Share client UI.

FYI. I found a temporary solution to this.  It uses the mootools cookie stuff which is included in explorer, but works fairly well.  In titlebar.jsp, I added:

window.onunload = function() {var myCookie = Cookie.set("scroll", getScrollTop());}
function getScrollTop(){
    if(typeof pageYOffset != 'undefined'){return pageYOffset;}
    else {
        var B= document.body;var D= document.documentElement;
        D= (D.clientHeight)? 😧 B;
        return D.scrollTop;
    }
}
var scroll = Cookie.get("scroll");
if (scroll > 1){
  window.addEvent('load',function() {scrollTo(0, scroll);});
}

Thanks for that, we'll take a look at the solution.
