This is my first post, so be gentle.
This: - <body onload="window.scrollTo(x,y)">
Works fine.
This: - window.onload = function() { window.scrollTo(x,y) }
Doesn't work at all.
Why?

Welcome to TSDN.
What is x and y in the first expression. -
<form onload = "window.scrollTo(x,y)">
-
<!--Here x and y would be number just you using variables-->

You got my point?
Kind regards,
Dmjpro.
Welcome to TSDN.
Thanks for the warm welcome.

Actually... No. :)
Well, it's not important any more. It works now, I do not know why, the code is exactly the same. This. Is. Soooo. Annoying.
This is related to a more advanced XhttpRequest situation, I thought I had isolated the problem to this (window.onload Vs. body onload) but it's seems that I was to hasty in my judgement.
I need to do some further testing to see where the problem is located...
Anyhow, thanks for your input.
... How do I mark this thread resolved?

Sorry for Misunderstanding your Problem.
Anyway I also tried but the second one is problem.

There's nothing in place to do that yet (and may never be because of possible problems).

That's OK, most of my problems are weird, thanks for trying.

I'm almost afraid to ask... But "possible problems"?.

And what's the Solution?

Well, you're good enough to say that your problem is resolved and want to mark it as such. Most don't. In fact, they might just disappear. That would then be up to the moderator to decide whether a question is resolved or not which is subjective. In this way, we could have a lot of unresolved questions. It also means more work for the mods.
I think I have isolated the problem now...
It seems to be a CSS issue (when CSS is removed it works as should).
Looking into to it...
And what's the Solution?
Kind regards,
Dmjpro.
The solution is that there isn't any problem with the window.onload function.

(Ops, I accidentally pushed the report button when I wanted to press reply, I hope that I didn't cause any problems (I quickly stopped the submit process))
I see... There is however a certain satisfaction in being able to put a "you won't be hunting me in my restless dreams now-stamp" on your question.
I suppose I just got domesticated in forums using such a function...
Btw, suggestion for your forum: move the report button away from the reply button. Besides for the problem of mistakenly pushing it (I wonder who would do such a stupid mistake, anyway) it kind of feels a little bit tempting...

No, as long as you didn't submit, it's fine.

I guess there is! There's pros and cons to this; you never know, it may well be added in the future.

Yes, this has already been suggested and I agree. Add any more suggestions and comments in the Feedback forum.

Got you.
========================================
Anyway, like I said: I found what the problem was and have started a new thread.
The solution to this thread was that here simply wasn't anything wrong with window.onload scrollTo.
Heya, NoName.
Did you mean document.unload?
My guess is that window.unload() doesn't fire until the current document has been unloaded, which would mean that there's nothing to scroll to.
pbmods:
"My guess is that window.unload() doesn't fire until the ..."
Yeah, well my guess is that none of ya seem to know what yer talkin' about. For example, there is no event "unload" -- it's onUnload.
As for the rest of the thread -- what a lot of noise signifying very little. How about addressing the original problem -- why does scrollTo() fail sometime?
@roricka
/facepalm @roricka
so you solve that three year old thread immediately?
Touche. Yes, it's an oldie, but goodie. No, seriously, I came here because I found this on google, and it was a problem I was having as well. But I was disappointed that really, nobody seemed to address the original issue, and the whole discussion devolved into a bunch of mindless twaddle. But you are right, it was probably not helpful to drop in from nowhere and criticize. On its merits, though, did you think my criticism was valid?
@roricka
As far as I can see, the issue was correctly dealt with in the first posts. admittedly, later the discussion went over to forum matters unrelated to the problem. @roricka
partly. the unnecessary part was about the event (as you might have guessed from my reaction). you can safely assume, that the Experts/Moderators have enough experience to know the basics. and Event handling, albeit basic, has its malices (IE and its non-standard event implementation comes to mind).
