PHP equivalent of ASP scrollbar location

[Jabop]

MaintainScrollPositionOnPostback=true

 

In ASP, if a postback is called it will return the browser to the same location. Can someone give me the PHP equivalent of this?

I'm not sure what you want to do... did you want to parse the submitted data then return to the form page? Or redirect to the form page carrying the post data with you?

<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>

Oh, i see what you want to do here, i think. Isn't this a client-side effect? I'm not sure PHP can do this.

 

It might be possible with anchors in the action attribute, but once again this is client-side.

I thought it was something like:

 

<?php
header('Cache-Control: something goes here blah');
header('Pragma:');
?>

From what I've read, there's no pure-php way to do this.

That is a client side behavour, you will need to look at Javascript.

There is no way to achieve it with headers?

I don't beleive there's a standard header to replicate this function

[Jabop]

<?php
header('Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0');
header('Pragma:');
header('Expires: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', time()+(2*60*60)).' GMT');
header('Last-Modified: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s').' GMT');
?>

 

Found a snippet. This works, not sure how though. I will do some testing.

That stops the page from caching, nothing to do with scroll location.

[Jabop]

Strange, it makes the scrollbar go back to the location when you do postback

Hehe, an odd side effect I should imagine.
