IE.au3 and _IEDocWriteHTML in a loop

[NELyon]

I'm writing an HTML editor for my friend. He's a web designer, but he does his work at school computers where he doesen't have access to dreamweaver, so i made this little WYSIWYG editor for him. There's a problem though, it keeps on refreshing so if you have a large file, it will keep scrolling to the top of the page. Can anyone help with this?

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <IE.au3>
#include <Misc.au3>
$oIE = _IECreateEmbedded()
$GUI = GUICreate("HTML Editor", 700, 700)
$Edit = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 0, 10, 700, 350)
GUICtrlCreateObj($oIE, 0, 360, 700, 350)
_IENavigate($oIE, "http://codemyster.zapto.org/blank.html")
GUISetState()

While 1
    If $cmdline[0] <> 1 Then
        ExitLoop
    Else
        GUICtrlSetData($Edit, FileRead($cmdline[1]))
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    
WEnd

While 1
    Sleep(10)

    _IEDocWriteHTML($oIE, GUICtrlRead($Edit))
WEnd

What do you want it to do?

p.s. your animated GIF avitar makes it very difficult for me to read your posts... I have an aversion to things that move on the screen and something that changes that quickly just grabs my eyes and won't let go...

Changed my avitar

I'm trying to make it not scroll up because it refreshes every .20 seconds, so it pops up back to the top

[DaleHohm]

So top is good?

$oIE.document.parentwindow.scroll(0,0)

I'm trying to keep it from scrolling back up to the top. I want it to stay in the same place when it refreshes.

Ah, ok then,

$iScrollTop = $oIE.document.body.scrollTop
$oIE.document.parentwindow.scroll(0,$iScrollTop)

Dale

p.s. you can find info on these properties in the MSDN docs in my sig

[NELyon]

ooo... another reason to like MSDN

But that didn't work. I'm gonna try some other stuff and see if it works

Ah, ok then,

$iScrollTop = $oIE.document.body.scrollTop
$oIE.document.parentwindow.scroll(0,$iScrollTop)

Sorry, I should have stated that those commands need to be split up... the first saves the current scroll position, the second should be executed after the refresh to set the scroll position back to the desired location.
