Refresh button at the bottom of the page...

[natidefan]

My mobile users are requesting a button to refresh a thread at bottom of the page.... so they don't have to scroll back up on there mobiles.

Is there any way to do this... Thanks so much!!!

maybe its not on all phones, but the menu button on my blackberry has a refresh option.. do some phones not have a menu?

Well on the iphone, if you aren't in the app, you have to press the top of the of the screen to get the refresh button to show.

Which jumps you to the top of the page when you do that...

Then you have to refresh and scroll down or use the jump back to the bottom...

It's not a huge deal to me, but I guess they are wanting a refresh button at the bottom so when they refresh they are right back where they were at on the bottom of the page like on the PC (I think I may have put code into make it do that, but either way that doesn't work when you refresh from the top of the page).

Thanks

Mark the bottom of the page with <a name="bottom"> and then the link to refresh is example.html#bottom or if it is a JavaScript refresh you can do location.href='example.php#bottom'; that should do the trick.

How that helps
