Multiselect listbox jumps to top on postback

Hi,

I have the following problem. On a page I have a multiple selection listbox.
It contains a lot of items. When items near the bottom are selected, and I
do a postback, the control jumpst to the top. If there are a lot of items,
this can get very annoying, always having to scroll down to the selected
items (if I want to change them, or something).

This behavior is only in Internet Explorer, and only with multiple selection
listboxes. If a single selection box is used, the selection is always
visible, even after a postback. In Firefox, even a multiple selections jump
to the first selected, on postback.

Is there a way (javascript or something) to make IE behave the same way -
that is, to scroll to the first selection in a multiple select listbox on
postback?

Thanks for any help

Best Regards

-Lenard

I have a simple multiselect listbox with a rowsorce of MemberID, MemberName, SendLetter. SendLetter is a Yes/No field. What is the code to set SendLetter to Yes when the user selects MemberName? I want to do this as the selections are being made not after-the-fact after all selections are made. Thanks! Sally

I am trying to write various items from a multiselect list box to an SQL statement to update a report, without success. SQL only appears to accept hard-coded data or control values from a form, not variable data. Any clues as to how I can write several items to an SQL statement from a multiselect listbox to update a report? Thanks in anticipation Cassie

Hello world: I'm using Access 2003. I have 2 listboxes. One is a single column. The other has two columns. I can use Dev Ashish's code (thanks Dev!) from the Access MVP Website to accumulate the values from the bound column of a MultiSelect listbox, so that I can include them in a SQL query that will then be the recordsource for a report. This gives me 2 of the 3 values I need to put into the SQL query. However, I can't get the non...

For some reason I cannot get the OnSelectedIndexChanged event to fire for a listbox I have on a page. I'm able to populate the listbox with data from a stored procedure, but cannot trigger the event. I do have EnableViewState = True for the listbox. I'm imagining (wanting) to populate the listbox named: lstNames by using the DataValueField from lstDepartments. It's quite apparent though that the event is not triggering as I can misname...

I've got a form that uses a multiselect listbox. When a user is selected from a combo box, values are populated into this listbox associated with that user. The problem is, if one person has say 10 entries in the listbox, and selects the last 3-4, and the next user only has 2 entries, those last 3-4 rows are still highlighted in the listbox. This introduces null values into my code which is definitely not good. I've tried using...

Hello, The details are below, but I have a simple form (Form1) with two objects and a "search" command button. When the two objects are cascading combo boxes (the form creates the parameters for a query - Query1), the query returns my results proper. But when the two objects are cascading combo-then-multiselect listbox (the perferred format in this case), the query always returns zero records. Tables: COMPILE (contains the records to be...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
