Thought this was worth posting seeing as I spent all day troubleshooting this !()&%$)!@&* problem.
Anyway. as some others have posted - sometimes you will find a categorised view which is accessed via a frameset behaving in a strange manner. You click on the twistie to expand the category but the view doesn’t stay on that expanded category. it jumps to the top of the view and you have to scroll down to see your expanded category.
My situation:
I have a frameset with 3+ frames my outline frame opens a $$viewtemplate in another frame and in that $$viewtemplate is an embeded view.
If the $$viewtemplate has the form property “auto frame” (in the launch tab) set to the same frameset (or any frameset - i think) then the problem will be as described above.
Solution:
To avoid the problem empty these autoframe options as they only confuse things for domino when it tries to build its code.
You can control what opens where with your frameset. (and perhaps with your view?? if you need to)
To diagnose this problem a little further look at the HTML source for the frame with the view.
compare the right and wrong code below:
*Note this code is generated by Domino - you cant just build it yourself.
*Note the change in the “var url=” line
************** wrong code ***************
