scrolling

I am using display:none to make a DIV disappear, this works fine, but
when I press the link to make the div disappear the browser scrolls to
the top of the page, which is very annoying. Is there any way of
stopping the browser resetting the scroll.

Thanks

Link?
Are you using <a href> type thing?
If so, return false. The browser is just following the href like a good boy.

<a href="#" onClick="functionname();return false;>linky</a>
