Position page on load and keep state?

[Saul]

Hi

My .NET web page consists of several sections, if I scroll down to a section,
enter some data and hit update, when the page is reloaded it is positioned
at the top of the page and not on the section I was working on. This is
confusing for users. How would one do a page load, and postion where it
was before (say at a specified anchor)- while at the same time maintining
viewstate on the page (IsPostBack must remain true) - so we can not do a
Redirect("www.MyPage.com#MyAnchor") - as this will start a fresh instance
of the page and we loose our state?

I hoping there is some code I can run in the page load which will jump the
page to the required position/location.

Any help apprecaited.
Thanks
Saul
