Re: Annoying scroll when a zone is updated
Hi Ben, Check http://tapestry.apache.org/current/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry5/corelib/components/Form.html autofocus parameter.

The grid can contain hundreds of rows and values can be updated with Ajax resulting in a zone refresh. I have a bit of a UX problem in that when the user changes a value in the grid, the zone is refreshed and the browser scrolls back up to the top of the zone. Clearly if you want to update lots of rows, losing the context of where you were in the grid is a real frustration. Any suggestions on a solution for this? Thanks, Ben.
Re: Annoying scroll when a zone is updated
Hi Ben, Do you have any form fields in the zone? Those will steal focus (causing a 'jump' in scroll location) unless you specify autofocus="false" on the form.

The grid can contain hundreds of rows and values can be updated with Ajax resulting in a zone refresh. I have a bit of a UX problem in that when the user changes a value in the grid, the zone is refreshed and the browser scrolls back up to the top of the zone.

RE: Annoying scroll when a zone is updated
A bit more detail on this, I've found that the reason for the scroll is because it is focussing on a form field (a select component) above the grid when the zone is updated. I have quite a few form fields inside this zone, is there a way to turn off autofocus for all of them? > From: ben.titma...@hotmail.co.uk > To: users@tapestry.apache.org > Subject: Annoying scroll when a zone is updated > Date: Mon, 20 May 2013 13:41:11 + > > Hi All, > > I have a grid and a form inside a zone.
