Cross-Browser method for setting ScrollTop of an element?

Question

For example I have I a div tag with the scroll bar on the right of the div tag.
I want to show the div with the last line, so I have this:

document.get         


        

Answer 1

Try setting the scroll position to a real figure, instead of just an arbitrary big number:

document.getElementById("divscroll").scrollTop = document.getElementById("divscroll").scrollHeight;
