Prevent page jumping up to top when using filter

Hi,

I need some help to stop the page from jumping to the top when someone selects their filter options and clicks on 'Filter' to submit.

I've tried to make it submit as soon as someone selects a filter option without having to click on the 'Filter' button to submit the search, but that makes it jump to the top as well.

Is there any way of making it stay a certain length down the page (e.g. by using a #top link within the php which controls where the page goes after filtering)? I've already used the #top tag to make the drop-down box stay a certain length down the page when someone clicks on it to drop down the filter box, but as mentioned, once someone then selects the filter options it jumps to the top of the page when displaying the filter results.

See problem here: s293983206.websitehome.co.uk/elevatefile...age(1)/women-s-shoes

Please help :S

Hi,

You can use an anchor in the filter form.
Otherwise, because you submit a form and reload the page, you got a new page so... globally except with a anchor it is not possible.

Thanks for your response Jerome. :-)

Can I just ask one more question... sorry to be a pain. How shall I include the anchor within the php of the form so that it returns the new page from the anchor point onwards?

Thanks in advance :-)

You would have to edit the file "filter" of the view "product" via the menu Display>views and change the line:

<form action="<?php echo $url; ?>" method="post" name="<?php echo 'hikashop_filter_form_' . $this->params->get('main_div_name'); ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data">
to something like that:
<form action="<?php echo $url; ?>#myanchor" method="post" name="<?php echo 'hikashop_filter_form_' . $this->params->get('main_div_name'); ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data">
