javascript - window.location.hash issue in IE7

Question

We have a javascript function that should "move" a page to a certain position using anchors. This function just does window.location.href = "#" + hashName. This works in FF, but not in IE. I tested this code using IE7 under Windows XP. I have tried using window.location.href, window.location.hash, window.location.replace and all these ways, but using document object. Does anyone know how to deal with this issue?

Answer 1

IE and most other browsers will scroll to an anchor with anchor.focus(), or to any element with an id with element.scrollIntoView(true)
