onClick to return to the same part of HTML document

rblampain · 02-28-2008, 09:11 AM

Is it possible to use the "onClick" event to return to the same part of an HTML page?

In a site that uses frames, I use the "onMouseOver" and "onMouseOut" events and get a return to the top of the page if the link is clicked.

This is OK because it gives access to another frame, which is what was wanted, but I could improve the script if it was possible to add the "onClick" event to return to the same part of the script (for example file#glossary_of_terms).

If it is possible, can you give an example of the code?

Thank you for your help.

You can use:

Code:

<a href="javascript:" onClick="history.go(-1)">return</a>

to go back, if that's what you want to do.
