I have a facebook app run inside an iframe. The problem is that if I have a smaller browser window, I scroll to the bottom to the app’s page list and select a new page, it will open in the iframe also in the bottom.

I tried to add a #top to the links, linking to a name="#top" element inside the new page, but this doesn’t work on Firefox (verified) and supposedly IE(not verified yet).
For Firefox, I understood it’s a known issue and there are some workarounds to make a “scroll to top” link work, BUT I haven’t found any solutions on how to open a new link inside the iframe and make it scroll.

I added a onload="location.href='#'" to the body element of the iframe and still no success.
Whatever I try, it seems to be ignored by Firefox.

Did any of you encountered this problem before? If so, can you spare some advices, please?

Thanks

    Feels weird to answer my own question, but hopefully this will help others.
    In the end, what did the trick for me was Facebook’s scrollTo function: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.Canvas.scrollTo/

    I still don’t know if it works on IE, since I haven’t tested it yet, but on Firefox everything is ok now
