>self.setTimeout('document.Form1.submit();', 1000);

That works great. The web form does a postback every 30 seconds and the scroll to position is respected. But now I have a new issue. When I was using a Refresh I did not have the problem. This the issue:

The form that is doing the postback every 30 seconds has links to other pages that open in seperate browser windows. So here I am sitting on the newly launched browser window and the launching web form does an automated postback, which causes it to come forward and sit on the lauched form.

Any thoughts?
