javascript? scroll(0,0) :correct syntax?

[chartrandi]

I need to reset browser scrollbar to 0,0..

my computer crashes.

getURL("javascript:scroll(0,0)");

is that the correct syntax?

Your code worked for me in IE6.

on (release) {
getURL("javascript:scroll(0,0)");
}

your computer crashes? or just Flash? or just the browser?

Different reasons for each

random :(, most of the times the browser, sometimes the computer

[Slowburn]

if it's the browser, it could be your call. depending on what version and platform your on.

If it's mostly computer, then you may have either: too much open, or a virus, or not enough memory to run what your calling.

That's all I can think of. though, obviously, this shouldn't be happening

actually with more testing, it's the browser. And it's really inconsistent. I have a modified version of IE 5.5. that may be the problem, or a really slow server that can't process enough of what I'm telling the computer to do.

I am using mx 2004
IE 5.5
shared objects
cannot use ie 6 for "development" reasons.

I can't upload files unfortunately because it's a complex project involving several files and also for security reasons (yeah, I work for the IRA ..kidding).

When I troubleshoot, the project becomes more stable when I remove the scroll(0,0) code.

when I put it back it's crashing. I saw a similar thread in another forum but no answer was posted. I can't find it but if anyone finds out about this undocumented crashing thing, please advise. :(
