Summary 0001958: back button to remember starting position
Revision 2013-12-23 14:23 by Vincent Sanders
Description Problem:

Having followed a link from near to the bottom of page_a, to page_b,
when using the 'back' button to return to page_a, the position on page_a is not remembered. eg:

On page file:///<NetSurf$Dir>/Docs/docs_en click on the
'Development Progress' link near the bottom of the page, which leads to file:///<NetSurf$Dir>/Docs/progress_en

Now clicking on the 'back' button returns to the top of page
file:///<NetSurf$Dir>/Docs/docs_en , not the starting point near the
bottom of the page.

Suggestion:

When following a link, NetSurf should remember the position of the link
on the page, and should return to that position, via the 'back' button.
