Hi all,

I have seen many pages on web sites where if you click a link the browser displays the content further down the page.  Usually the
top of the page has a list of links that you click and then the browser postions the page at the appropiate content.  Or you can
just scroll down to the content.  

I want to do the following:

I have a menu which will list 6 menu options.  Each of these menu options is the the same asp.net page.  I would like to pass a
query string that will tell the page where to position the display.  So each menu option would be the same asp.net page but with a
different parameter.

I am confused on how to do this.  I would like to know: 1. the best way to pass the value of my link and 2. how in my html do I
display the page at that link.

I hope this makes sense!!

Thanks,
Bob

Hi Bob,
 
Did you got the answer? 
 
Read the following if you till waiting for answer.
 
#) Give suitable html bookmarks reference to the places you want to move the
control. Like 
      ex  -   <a name="#someMeaningfulName"></a>
 
#) create a hidden input field
        ex  - <input type="hidden" id="viewposition" name="viewposition"
runat="server">
 
#) In Page load of the asp.net page get your query string for position and
accordingly write the 'href' in the hidden field. Make sure you have put #
symbol at the beginning 
 
#) At the end of asp.net page just before </body> add the following.
    <script language="javascript">
    location.href=document.all.viewposition.value;
    </script>
 
 
Hope it will help you.
