Eli,
The scrollTo() call works fine for all versions of all browsers (Firefox,
IE, Opera) on my WinXP with that javascript (whether inline as you had it,
or moved out to a function that is called on click), but not for any of them
when the documentElement's overflow is set to 'hidden' via the code in my
application.
What's even more strange is that if I put a test scrollTo() call for
scrolling to an arbitrary position IMMEDIATELY BEFORE the
document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0];h.style.overflow='hidden';
statement in my application, the scrolling works, but not if placed
IMMEDIATELY AFTER. And that's the case for all of the browsers, not anything
specific to Firefox. So something in addition to setting the overflow to
'hidden' must be causing my problem, but it doesn't look like I'll be
figuring out what that is tonight. When I do finally figure it out, if it's
anything relevant to Firefox development I'll post more in this thread.
