How to do that ???

Since iOS5 UIWebView has scrollView property. You can use variable of type CGPoint defined like this:

CGPoint _scrollPosition;

Then initialize it:

_scrollPosition = CGPointMake(0, 0);

Whereever you need to store the current position use:

_scrollPosition = _webView.scrollView.contentOffset;

Implement UIWebViewDelegate protocol and add code to restore the position inside -(void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView:

- (void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView
{
    // .... your other code here ...

    if (0 < _scrollPosition.y) {
        _webView.scrollView.contentOffset = _scrollPosition;
        _scrollPosition = CGPointMake(0, 0);
    }
}
