The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome.

Text Area Scrolling
ReplyDeleteIn response to the comment, the basics of the link are:
When using JDK1.4.2 (or earlier) the most common suggestion you will find in the forums is to use code like the following:
textArea.append(...);
textArea.setCaretPosition(textArea.getDocument().getLength());
However, I have just noticed that in JDK5 this issue has actually been resolved by an API change. You can now control this behaviour by setting a property on the DefaultCaret of the text area. Using this approach the code would be:
JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea();
DefaultCaret caret = (DefaultCaret)textArea.getCaret();
caret.setUpdatePolicy(DefaultCaret.ALWAYS_UPDATE);
As a side note can anybody tell me why I am not receiving email notifications when comments are added to my replies. I've checked the "I'd like email notifications of activity on my questions and answers" checkbox on my preferences page. And I've double checked my email address. Is there anything else I need to do?
