Annoying isnt it. Well in .Net Framework 2.0 (yes it’s been there a while now), you can use the property:

Page.MaintainScrollPositionOnPostBack = true;

Well this will force the user to be returned back to the last point they clicked i.e. could be a control, button, checkbox etc

Very useful and helps with improving the user experience, something we should all be striving for!

I uploaded a long post this week regarding using the Windows Mixer control API and the formatting is so screwy it’s not true.

Even the title does not appear on the summary page, rewritten it twice already but still no joy
