How to automatically scroll up a wicket panel when wicket feedbackpanel is trigged?

Question

Im using a FeedbackPanel to show errormessage during validation controlls in a wicket form. When the message occurs it occur in the top of the form(page). And my problem is that I might scrolled down when making a input and than I cant see the errormessage if I dont croll the form to the top of the page. I would like to know how I can set the focus on the feedbackpanel so that everytime a errormessage is shown the form scrolls to the top automatically.

Answer 1

I assume you use ajax-submit?

Then you can add a javascript / jQuery to the AjaxRequestTarget . For example this:

String myScript = " $('html, body').animate({scrollTop:$('#ELEMENT_ID').offset().top - 20}, 'slow');";
ajaxRequestTarget.appendJavascript(myScript);

Where you need to set the #ELEMENT_ID to your form.

Or alternatively, if you set a HTML ANCHOR (#)

function scrollTo(hash) {
    location.hash = "#" + hash;
}
