Bjoern, Martin and Evertjan:

Hi:

The statement: 
document.body.onload="document.getElementById(tid).scrollIntoView();"

    ... works perfectly for IE8 and Safari

    For Chrome, the original page displays at the top and not where the 
viewer left it.

    I'll do more testing.

Thanks to y'all !
