Hey everyone. I need help. I’ve looked around and found answers to this question, but all are in relation to AS3 and I’m working with AS2.

I have a scrollpane with a very long list of images stacked vertically. The user can scroll around, click on an image, and it will take them to another part of the application. There, there is a back button so they can return to the list of images. Instead of jumping back to the top, I want the back button to return them to where they were in the list of images beforehand.

So my question is, how do I log the value of the scroll position, and then set it to that value when the page is loaded again?
