Refresh Iframe and maintain scroll back position on refresh

Question

Hi,
I want to refresh a part of page ie iframe after particular duration.and even I want to maintain the scroll back position after refresh the iframe.
I don't want to use Update Panel I want to use pure javascript.
I tried this also (Meta to refresh and MaintainScrollPositionOnPostback )..but the scroll back position is maintained in Mozilla but not in IE..
I will just elaborate my scenario
In mainPage I have IFrame -> src = contentPage
In ContentPage I set Meta to refresh the page and I have set the MaintainScrollPositionOnPostback

I am not getting where I am wrong?
can anybody help me by code?

Niradhip is right, you can use window.scrollTo function to set the position of scroll, function SetDivPosition(){ var intY = document.getElementById("DivWithScroll").scrollTop; document.cookie = "yPos=!~" + intY + "~!"; //add window.scrollTo(0,intY); }

Maintain scrollback position should work. If it is not working then use javascript code do it. follow the following code: Try this script to refresh a part of page ie iframe after particular duration Following javascript function will refresh the iframe after certain amount of time function refreshiframe() { parent.iframeid.location.href="thepage.com" setTimeout("refreshiframe()", 1500000); } This script to scroll to the same position (use different parameters) function scrollWindow() { window.scrollTo(100,500) }
