Move scroll bar to currentrow

Question

I have two interactive reports. Both highlight the current row. One actually scrolls to the selected one so that it is always at the top of the report. One does not. I can't find the difference between the two reports..
What can make an IR scroll to the currently selected item?

Answer 1

tward,
I do not believe there is any built in functionality to do this. I have met this requirement before by appending an anchor tag to the edit link. The id of the anchor tag will be the primary key for that record. This method assumes that the record will be displayed within the current interactive report selection and is within the current pagination.
to recreate my solution follow this example:
1. Create a report with the following SQL: (my report is page 10)
select level primary_key,
       level display
  from dual
connect by level <= 1002. Create a second page (mine is page 11) with 1 region and 1 item. the item should be named P11_PRIMARY_KEY
3. Edit the report on page 10 so the primary key column is a link to page 11 and sets P11_PRIMARY_KEY to #PRIMARY_KEY#.
4. Modify the edit link and append an anchor tag to it and give it an id of the primary key for that record. It should look something like this:
<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#menu/pencil16x16.gif" alt=""><a id="#PRIMARY_KEY#"></a>
|- - - - - - - edit link display - - - - - - - - - -|| - appended anchor tag - | 5. Create a region level button on page 11. Name it cancel and make its target redirect to URL and make the target this:
f?p=&APP_ID.:10:&APP_SESSION.:::::#&P11_PRIMARY_KEY.6. run the app, click a link on the report on page 10 then click the cancel button on page 11. The record you clicked edit on should be at the top of the page.
