How to link inside the current page

[Alexandre Poitras <al...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I have a little problem that I can't solve and it's really bugging me
so I hope someone here know the answer. I am trying to send the user
back to the current page but to a given position. Using a pure html
approach I would usually do something like href="#id" but he doesn't
seems to work with the action attribute. So anyone knows how I might
be able to do this?

Thank a lot!

Thank for the info but I prefer to try to use the href approach first.
I have strict restrictions on the outputted xhtml.

The myfaces autoscroll setting should be able to do this for you.  
However, being a javascript-novice, I was never able to figure out how
to do it myself.

For some browsers, setting the focus will also scroll to the active
control on a given page.   Sandbox focus shows how.   Not sure if
that's helpful for your browser target, though.

Yeah unfortunately I am trying to do this using a custom component
which extend UICommand. I guess I should take a look at outputLink
source code to see how they handle this case.
