Could this could be easily updated to work with an IFrame?

Well done, Paul!
I used php and firefox.
It works.
Thanks a lot.

@Paul, I believe I know what the problem is... the sample bit of code I have on this tutorial is using a function (getObject) that does not exist. If you look at the Example Link and view the source, you will the correct javascript code. Use that one instead. I am going to fix the sample code on this article as well. Thank you for catching that.

Sorry, that should read (with the appropriate syntax's removed this time!):

form name="blah" method="get" action="Request.ServerVariables("URL")" onsubmit="return saveScrollPositions(this);"

I am trying to implement this code to save the scroll position in an asp page I am developing, however I am unable to get it to function. I added a button to the form which triggers the saveScrollPositions function to try and help debug the error. When I click the button I receive the following from IE6:
Line: 24
Char: 4
Error: 'scrollx' is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: blah

But I have hidden input fields for both scrollx & scrolly in my form! My form name line is the only line that differs from the rest of your code, it is as follows:

" onsubmit="return saveScrollPositions(this);">

Everything else is exactly the same! Any thoughts or ideas as to why this is the case? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers
