ASP.NET 2.0 Maintain Scroll Position on PostBack with Mozilla FIREFOX in the works?

ed
Does anyone know if ASP.NET 2.0 is going to incorporate "maintain scroll
position on postback" in non-IE browsers like Firefox?

This seems like an often requested feature on these newsgroups since the
beta version of .NET.

Microsoft heavily advertises it's .NET browser detection advantages, why not
make some use of it and hope that Microsoft follows up their words with
actions? as well as following up on their agreement from the anti-trust
settlements on being anti-competitive.

Thanks.

I would think that this is a browser issue, and not a back end issue...
After all, it's the browser that has to remember what the position is.

Now if those browsers support maintaining that position, by requiring a
certain tag, or something in the markup, then by all means, ASP.NET should
support it. If it doesn't, however, the architecture is not so closed that
you can't do it yourself.

Typical MVP answer!

This is where Microsoft should step in and do it. It would be so much easier
on us all that Microsoft get this done as opposed to having customize and
build up a feature whereas Microsoft only has to tweak their version to work
in other non-IE browsers such as Firefox and Safari.

If Microsoft wants to REDUCE the amount of code, this would be a good place
to start.

Why does Microsoft have the MVP program anyways?

Ever heard that this is still in beta?
Good reason to post to the appropriate Whidbey
NG -microsoft.private.whidbey.aspnet.pageframework - instead of multiposting
to non related NG's.

Um... No.. You & I may realize that on a post back, the browser is
redisplaying the same page, but as far as the browser is concerned, it's a
different page.
