Stefan,
You are correct in that the current implementation only scrolls to a
link or a button. I was proposing that you take advantage of the
infrastructure that was there to expand to to scroll to other
components.
I'm not sure exactly how it would work, but I'd think in the short
term, it would be something like this.
onclick="setScrollToComponentAndSubmit()"
You may have to manually create a button to submit it. This is a
similar button I use to trigger special javascript submit code.
<f:verbatim>
<input type="submit" style="display: none;"
onclick="document.forms['form'].elements['autoScroll'].value=getScrolling();"
value="Submit" name="form:refreshButton"
id="form:nonclearingRefreshButton"/>
</f:verbatim>
If you're looking to contribute a myfaces component to handle all of
this automatically, I can only point you in the right direction (the
autoScroll field and the getScrolling() function). You'll have to
figure out the details as I don't have the skillset (javascript) to
help you. :)
But there's already something in place in MyFaces. It's just a matter
of converting it to your needs.
