Greetings forum, It's been a while since I've posted (Since AS3 has consumed my life) but I have question I hope you intelligent people can help me with.
I have two divs nested in a 400 x 500 div. the left div contains a list of pages that will be loaded in the right div. Both divs scroll when it becomes too big for the containing divs height. Works great by passing a variable with php and refreshing the page, BUT...
The users location on the scrolling list in the left div resets (Rightfully so because you are loading a new page). Now, is there a way to save how far you scrolled in pass it onto the new page? Or should I just change the right div to a iFrame and avoid this problem? Even though I really have a distaste for iFrame.
Any thoughts?
thanks,
Shane

Re: Getting a div to act like iFrame
Hmm, interesting problem.
I've never tried it, but one way of checking may be to assign each entry in the div an id and anchor it:
and then link to it (page.php?your=query&string=here#unique_id_83587). It might be that the div scrolls too. Worth a shot and it's easy to test.

That's really clever.
I was hoping that there was a way to maintain the visual position so it didn't look like it changed. Maybe I could pass the position of the scroll bar along and then change it when the page loads.
Thanks for the help.
