How to Return to a section of a page after form submission-CodePudding

There is a form on the page that returns to the first page after submission I want it to stay on this section of the page.

CodePudding user response：

It is hard to understand what is "the page" and "this section".

Here are various approaches:

Stay on page:

<form onsubmit="event.preventDefault(); //do stuff if need">
...
</form>

Scrolling to a section:

If you have a section <section id="mySt"></section> of either the page of the form or the previous one, you give it an id like i did. To go to it (by scrolling to it), you show that in your URL, for example http://example.org/#mySt. That could be in form: action="somepage.php#mySt". Or scripting, you can use scrollIntoView on the page you need, when you are deciding it's needed, write in js file:

// on some event
var mySt = document.getElementById('mySt');
mySt.scrollIntoView();

Have a blessed code!
