How can I stop page scrolling to form on loading?

Hello.
My page has a list of services available on it and then right at the bottom there is a form people can complete with name and email to contact me if they wish.
The problem is that this is quite a way down the page and on loading, the page scrolls down to the bottom automatically with the caret flashing in the Name field of the form.
How can I prevent this from happening.
Thank you
Terry

Sounds like you have a bit of javascript adding focus to the form onload.
A link would be best, but if you see something like this in your <body> tag, deleting it should do the trick...
<body onload="document.form.textfield.focus();">

How can i stop Pages and Numbers JUMPING ALL OVER THE SCREEN. MAKING ME SEASICK! PLEASE HELP

how can i stop Pages and Numbers screen JUMPING ALL OVER the place when i just touch my mouse. i have tried and tried to change the mouse settings - but it is the software. especially Numbers. you can't even see what the page size is until you print. i am so SEASICK! PLEASE HELP.

Thanks for the trouble to reply. this problem only happens with Pages and Numbers for me. i have done all the tricks like restarting. the main problem is that the working space is not 'stable' - it has no 'ends' even on full screen. in Numbers - UNLESS I SET IT TO 25% VIEW (which is way too small) - the actual total 'work space' is way off the grid - so every time i move the mouse the table i am working on zooms off to left or right, at the slightest touch. i have set my mouse to no gestures!
the thing is this did not happen before the latest upgrades.
but thanks anyway. SG.
if you are a techy person - i have another prob. in Mail i am unable to set the SORT / VIEW messages to BY DATE.
(it used to be ok, at one time, too). now it continually reverts to BY SUBJECT oh so annoying !
restarting etc does not change it. resetting preferences does not change it.
maybe i need a new Mac ?
mine is a 27-inch, Mid 2011. running latest.

How can I stop Pages converting the second letter in a postcode into lowercase?

Ever since I had a new upgrade to Pages last year it converts the second letter of a postcode to lowercase even though I have the caps lock on. How can I stop it doing this? eg SW15 1QZ becomes Sw15 1QZ.

Try:
Menu > Pages > Preferences > Auto-Correction > uncheck Fix Capitilization
or anything else there that might apply.

How can I stop Pages automatically detecting and converting hyperlinks

How Can I disable page scrolling when creating an interactive PDF using InDesign?

I'm attempting to create an interactive PDF portfolio with links from the homepage to gallery pages and projects etc, but it seems useless if I can't stop the PDF pages from scrolling? Can anyone help?
I have InDesign CS5.5 and Adobe Acrobat Pro.
Thanks,
Elizabeth

scrolling through the pages
There is nothing you can do to prevent a viewer from navigating on their own through a PDF. One method would be to have the PDF open in Full Screen mode, this hides the navigation tab. But a viewer can use their arrow keys to go page to page, ignoring the links within the PDF. And the viewer can hit the esc key to go back to normal view. Another option would be to use a swf export, indstead of pdf, but seriously depends on how you plan to distribute this portfolio.

How can I stop Pages from changing the date of a document?

It seems that at some point not long ago, I set Pages to use the current date when I use a template that I made. But now, when I open an existing document that was made with that template, the date is changed to the current date. I certainly do not want that to happen. Does anyone know what I can do to stop Pages from doing this? Thanks so much for any input.
Al
Update: Immediately after posting this question, I found the simple answer: double clicking the date and unchecking the 'automatic update' box.

Right click on the date to change its behavior and once you have fixed it resave your template.

How can I stop pages from automatic reloading, I am aware of the option in advanced, but it does not work for pages like Yahoo News and Drudge Report.

I am trying to stop pages from being able to automatically reload. Sites such as Drudge Report and now Yahoo News anre reloading before I have a chance to read them and it confuses me due to a disability besides just being annoying. I have found the option in tools-advanced-accessibility and checked it but they still reload. And I did close Firefox and restart.
I am using version 3.6.8 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722
Thanks

The Drudge Report site has a script to reload after 3 minutes:
var timer = setInterval("autoRefresh()", 1000 * 60 * 3);
function autoRefresh(){self.location.reload(true);}
The Yahoo page probably has something similar.
You can try NoScript to see if you can block that refresh.

How can I stop pages from wanting to make every document into an outline?

Every time I try to create a document in Pages, it insists in turning it into an outline. How do I type a staright document?

Have you tried starting from a different template?
As far as I can tell the Outline setting is contained in the document, so this should only happen if you are starting from a template that was saved with Show Document Outline selected.

How can I stop Pages capitalising after i.e. or e.g.?

I do not want to turn automatic capitalisation off altogether, but I was wondering how I can make an exception for things like e.g., etc., i.e.?

All or nothing, I'm afraid.

How can I stop my iPad 3 form getting so hot

My pad is getting so hot

Warm or hot, and when doing what?
With the screen improvement, it will use more processor which will get warm. The more processor extensive activity, the warmer the iPad will get just as with any computer.

How can I stop acrobat dc continually loading the right hand toolbar on every pdf I open

How can I stop the right hand toolbar continually loading in the new acrobat dc, it is infuriating and am getting extremely annoyed with it as I have to close it every time I load a pdf. I use the arrow to close and it reopens on the next pdf.

Yes very disappointed in how Toolbar functionality generally is so degraded with this DC version. It is as if the product designers have no idea how people use the product. And it degrades its most basic functionality, the ability to read a PDF. I am tempted to switch to one of the many other PDF readers which is one less reason for Creative Cloud.
The default toolbar contains numerous sticky items that I have never needed in the past 15 years, as sticky icons anyway. That little cell phone icon, email, print, and now with Home/Tools/Document alongside with no ability to move them. These fill valuable toolbar space, the result being that side-by-side windows no longer display the toolbar items I actually use. I almost always have PDFs open beside other applications so this means 100% of the time the new design is flawed vs the prior. This is really really basic for any application: personalized toolbars. It was present in WordPerfect in 1993, for example. DC is not to 1993 UI standards.
Get on this immediately, please. Specifically, get rid of the persistent right pane as many of us clearly do not want to use it "all the time" as is forced. And, allow the top toolbar to be fully customizable so those of us who have been customizing toolbars in our applications since 1993 can do so in this allegedly state of the art PDF reader.

How can I stop Firefox from asking me over and over (even on pages with no flash content) to install Flash? I don't want Flash installed and this stupid pop-up.

So even when I load up websites (like ones we here at my job have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I still get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pops down from the URL bar at left.) How can I stop this without disabling all plug-in updates?
Moreover, why in the name of all that's good is it asking me about Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?
Thanks to anyone who can answer.

I do not see why this should happen because of Firefox. Maybe you have some sort of adware on your system.
Please attach a screenshot of the popup
* [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
Try Firefoxin safe mode to rule out your standard extensions. if that does not solve the problem then scan for malware with multiple and up-to-date tools.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

When i want to return to my home page I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want how can I stop this as i have too many tabs open.

When I want to return to my home page after looking at a website I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want.How can I stop this as I have too many tabs open and have to close all of them.

You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that flush the tab?
Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

How can I stop multiple tabs from opening along with Mozilla Firefox Start Page at launching time.How can this be stopped?

Whenever I launch Firefox, multiple tabs also start to open along with the Mozilla Firefox Start Page, which is very irritating. How can I stop this to happen each time I launch the browser?

See these articles for some suggestions:
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
It is also possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).
