Can I overrule an internal bookmark eg script.php#middle in case of error?

[zzapper]

Hi,
I use an internal bookmark

<form method="post" action="${form_action}#mark1">

to return to the correct place in the page.

In case of an error I would wish to return to the top of the screen
can I overrule the bookmark "mark1" in my PHP code?

No, but your results page could put id="mark1" at the top of the page
instead of further down.

Can I "Read" the value of this bookmark from the PHP environment
variables?

You can get to it via $_POST['action'].
Look for the position of the '#' using strpos(), then substr() the
desired part from the total string.
e.g.

<?PHP
$bookmark=false;
if (isset($_POST['action']){
if ($poundpos=strpos($_POST['action'],'#')!=false){
$bookmark=substr($_POST['action'],$poundpos);
}
}
if ($bookmark){
//your code here
}

?>

There are other ways to get the bookmark part from the string, using
explode() for example. This is just one idea.
