Question
I have several divs with content. Some of the context is wrapped with,
content <a name='SomeName'> cool content </a> more content
In Javascript how do I force the SomeName name to scroll into view for that DIV only. The catch is that there are many DIVs on the page with content.
I have the Div's object known. The Div can contain other divs etc in a hierarchy. Somewhere in there is the SomeName anchor.
Solution
what about scrollintoview command? Not sure if thats IE specific.
document.getElementById("SomeName").scrollIntoView(true);
OTHER TIPS
You could set the Window Location to include the # anchor, and the browser will scroll to it.
Window.Location = "http://yourSite.com/YourPage.html#SomeName";
