Start page at different locations?

Harry · Jul 4, 2003

I would like to be able to set the start location of a page each time its
displayed depending on the value of a request object -i.e

// Called from <body> onload attribute
function load()
{
<%
String startAtLink = (String)request.getAttribute( "startatlink" );

if(startAtLink!=null)
{
%>
// jump to location of startAtLink link e.g Step3 defined as <a
name="Step3"></a> futher on down
// may also have Step4, Step5 etc...
<%
}
%>

thanks

No need for js at all.

Trouble is, I'm using struts & forwarding to jsp pages with # on the end is
a bit tricky if at all possible - got around it now using

<%
String startAtLink = (String)request.getAttribute( "startatlink" );
if(startAtLink!=null)
{
%>
window.location = '#<%= startAtLink %>';
<%
}
%>

seems to work well - thanks anyway!
