Hi, I am working on a RAP/Eclipse project that is using 'qooxdoo 0.7.4 (r16878)' under the cover. In one of the UI pages we are creating a textarea to display progress messages to the user therefore every few minutes a lne being appended to the displayed text. The expectation is that the text area scrolls to the bottom each time a line is appended. The application works fine on IE (the text area is always scrolled to the bottom) but it doesn't behave the same on other browsers (FF, Opera, Safari). The browser always stays at the top and one has to manually scroll it down to see the appended messages. There are so many high level design options to work around this issue but what I am interested in is to find out if this is a known issue with regards to text area behavior with IE & FF and can be fixed by JS code w/out changing the application design. I have found some suggestions over the internet such as using 'setScrollTop(1e7)' or 'textarea.scrollTop = textarea.scrollHeight;' should force the scroll bar to the bottom but I have not been able to get it working by trying to get textarea element from DOM object and updating scrollTop value. I have also tried to figure out what can be changed within qx.js file but had no luck to influence this behavior. I appreciate for feedback. PS: unfortunately we cannot move to a newer version of RAP or qooxdoo so I am stuck with 0.7.4. -- View this message in context: http://qooxdoo.678.n2.nabble.com/Textarea-vertical-scroll-issue-on-FireFox-tp5496580p5496580.html Sent from the qooxdoo mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
