reloading shopping pages

[cornfedpig]

Currently my on-line shopping cart reloads the page after a customer clicks an
'add' button. This is okay but the customer is returned to the top of the page
(because it has reloaded). I wonder if there is a way of reloading but in the
same position on the page that the user or customer was at the time of clicking
an add button.

Can anyone help me?

If the place is certain (say you only show one item per page) you place an
anchor (e.g. <a name="itemForSell"></a>) right above the item inf. so when
refreshing the page you may 'post' data like: action="blah.asp#itemForSell").

But its likely that u have more than one item, retrieved from a db. In this
case, since your page is stitched together dynamically u have the opportunity
to place anchors adjacent to their corresponding item dynamically and also you
want to place this id (here numbers) dynamically in the form (for post) or the
button (for "get" method)

e.g. <a name="item-1"></a>first item desc. and order form or sh<some ps
perhaps><input type="button"
onclick="window.location='thisfile.asp?blahblah#it em-1' /><a
name="item-2"></a>second item<input type="button"
onclick="window.location='thisfile.asp?blahblah#it em-1'" />

In case of using "post" method u have a form per item so the second
dynamically place id is placed in action like <form
action="thisfile.asp#item-2>post data inputs</form>
