Navigation for a lengthy page

Hi,

I have a relative lengthy .aspx page. There are buttons, datalists datagrids
everywhere. When a user scrolls down to the middle of bottom of the page and
click on a button, a postback happens and the page is rerendered, but the
position is at the very top. The user has to scroll down again. IS there a
way to remember the position and reposition it after postback?

TIA

You can turn on smart navigation for the page, but it is known to be buggy
and cause problems for some pages.

Ed,
In the <%@Page tage, add SmartNavigation="True". SmartNavigation is a
property of the Page class, so it can be set in the properties browser also.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Palermo
