Ah --
Thanks for this. I wasn't thinking javascript. This will definitely
help.

I was wondering how to keep my long lists, after refresh, from
moving back to the top of the page.
This is really annoying to our customers who have long lists.
When submitting the form I use javascript to store the current
scroll position in two hidden fields and then add an onload-event to
scroll to those positions.
If you have no form but element IDs or names you could use something
like this:
function scrollToElementWithName(elementName) {
var element = document.getElementsByName(elementName)[0];
scrollToElement(element);
}
function scrollToElementWithID(elementID) {
var element = document.getElementById(elementID);
scrollToElement(element);
}
function scrollToElement(anchor) {
var coords = {x: 0, y: 0 };
while (anchor) {
coords.x += anchor.offsetLeft;
coords.y += anchor.offsetTop;
anchor = anchor.offsetParent;
}
window.scrollTo(coords.x, coords.y);
}
and call scrollToElementWithID as in an onload-event.
