Use of Anchors in RadPane skips back

[Mike]

When browse to a page with a RadSplitter on it, and the URL contains a #anchor, the page loads and jumps to the anchor correctly, but then it jumps back up to the top.    I see an old, similar thread at http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/splitter/can-t-use-anchor-in-radpane.aspx with no solutions provided.  Is there any way to resolve this behavior without manually managing scroll using javascript?

Hi Mike,

I am not quite sure I understand the exact problem. Could you please provide more detailed information on the specific scenario?

• In order to use anchors when loading external page in a pane you need to provide the full path to the href attribute (url and anchor name), e.g.:
  

  <telerik:RadSplitter ID="RadSplitter1" runat="server">
      <telerik:RadPane ID="RadPane1" runat="server">
          <a href="Default2.aspx?#anchor1" target="<%=RadPane2.ClientID %>">top</a>
          <a href="Default2.aspx?#anchor2" target="<%=RadPane2.ClientID %>">middle</a>
          <a href="Default2.aspx?#anchor3" target="<%=RadPane2.ClientID %>">bottom</a>
      </telerik:RadPane>
      <telerik:RadPane ID="RadPane2" runat="server" ContentUrl="Default2.aspx"></telerik:RadPane>
  </telerik:RadSplitter>

• If you are displaying content from the same page you can simply set the anchor name in the href attribute, e.g.:
  

      <telerik:RadSplitter ID="RadSplitter2" runat="server">
      <telerik:RadPane ID="RadPane3" runat="server">
          <a href="#anchor1">top</a>
          <a href="#anchor2">middle</a>
          <a href="#anchor3">bottom</a>
      </telerik:RadPane>
      <telerik:RadPane ID="RadPane4" runat="server">
          <a name="anchor1">Top of the page</a>
          <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
          <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
          <a name="anchor2">Here's the middle part</a>
          <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
          <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
          <a name="anchor3">and this is the bottom</a>
      </telerik:RadPane>
  </telerik:RadSplitter>
