B]thank you tarview
[but its not working while i use a refreshing script
(actually i have written an automatic refreshing script ..if i use this refreshing script that automatic scrolling is not working ...if i dont use that refeshing script that page working with your idea)
but i need the page to scroll automatically after refreshing
do you have any other idea????
i'm sorry for my english
please help me!!!!!!!![/B]

 

its an automatic refresh .

here's the script that i use for automatic refreshing :

<script type="text/javascript">

function reFresh() {
location.reload(true)
}
window.setInterval("reFresh()",3000);
</script>
i'm doing a public chat project :i use frameset and called the following webpage user.aspx,type_message.aspx,message.aspx
in user.aspx -shows the number of online user's in the chat room
type_message.aspx-here the user types his messages here
message.aspx-in message.aspx,i use automatic refreshing and need this page to scroll automatically as soon as i enter the text message .this page displays the chat message in public .....
everything is working fine except scrolling
As it is refreshing after each 3000 millisec the scroller goes to the top of the page
i need the scroller to be at the bottom of the page

 

The code should go in message.aspx. Have it run the function on page load. And, I believe you only need the setCaretToEnd function, not the other one.

It should work. I'll do some testing and let you know what I come up with.
