Prevent Refresh 'Jump' with Javascript

Question

I\'ve noticed that if you are on a page and you have scrolled down a good bit, if you refresh the page, most browsers will jump you back down to your position. Is there any way

Answer 1

On Chrome, even if you force scrollTop to 0 it will jump afterwards after the first scroll event.

You should bind the scroll to this:

$(window).on('beforeunload', function() {
    $(window).scrollTop(0);
});

So the browser is tricked to believe that it was on the beginning before the refresh.
