Clicking on link makes page jump to top

[pentool]

Hello,
I have a page where a link will dynamically hide and show a table (using
javascript to change the table's style display:none and display:block). Click
the link once and it will show it, click again, it will hide it, etc. Very
simple. The table is very long, so once it opens (shows) you need to scroll
down to see it's bottom. After the first table, I have another link, and
another table to sho/hide just like the first one.

Now the issue here is that I use <a href="#"
onClick="javascript:showHide('infoTable1');>View Prices</a>

Because the href property is just a "#" thing (since it doesn't need a real
link), that causes the page to jump to the top, when you try to open the second
table (because it's way way down at the bottom). How can I make the page NOT
jump to the top of the page when I'm opening the tables?

<a href="javascript:showHide('infoTable1')"> probably solve your dilemma.

Thanks for the reply, but no, it doesn't solve it.

just drop an anchor somewhere on the page where you want your page to jump when sombody click the link, give it a name of top/middle/bottom, then add the name to the # sign in your link (ex: #middle)
