scrolling to top of nested scaffold

I have a page with a few nested scaffolds in it. Recent versions of active_scaffold seem to automatically scroll my browser to the bottom of the page (the last nested scaffold). Is there a way to disable this new behavior? Thanks.

Scrolling is not a new behaviour, but I had some issues while I was
trying to improve it. Please, explain more your issue. Anyway you can
disable all scrolling with ActiveScaffold.js_config
https://github.com/activescaffold/active_scaffold/wiki/JS-config

By default, scrolling should happen only when displaying messages or
opening nested scaffolds or forms and the top is out of viewport.

I tried setting ActiveScaffold.js_config = { }, and ActiveScaffold.js_config = {:scroll_on_close => false }

I have a view with 4 nested scaffolds. I am using render_component to render the inline scaffolds. I make my browser window is small enough that I have to scroll to see all the scaffolds. After the page loads, javascript is causing the browser to scroll to the last scaffold so that the last scaffold is in the viewport.

For example:

<%= render :active_scaffold => "apples" %>

<%= render :active_scaffold => "oranges" %>

<%= render :active_scaffold => "monkeys" %>

<%= render :active_scaffold => "dogs" %>

// browser scrolls so this scaffold in viewport

<%= render :active_scaffold => "cats" %>

I can't find when a embedded scaffold can call scroll_to method,
neither using render_component nor ajax. Really, using render_component
shouldn't execute any javascript code.

Can you set a breakpoint in first line of ActiveScaffold.scroll_to and
reload the page? So you can get the trace in web inspector (chrome) or
firebug (firefox)
I'm not getting that behaviour, without using render_component, which
could be more probable to scroll becuase using ajax to load embedded
scaffolds.

The problem seems to have something to do with render_component and the fact that I am using jQuery and prototype simultaneously, but I cannot track down where its breaking. If I disable render_component and use ajax for inline scaffold rendering, the problem goes away. Any suggestions? It is probably a case where there is a $( or $. expecting to use jQuery and instead for me it is using prototype because I use "jQuery.noConflict()".

ok, so i set
ActiveScaffold.js_config = { }
in application.js
and now everything got bizarre behavior:
when posted, nested got closed and parent row got replaced by child row (the one created in the nested AS)

No, I couldn't find any $ call in ActiveScaffold. Can you send me a
sample application failing?

Hi Sergio. I eventually isolated this to a problem specific to my application. Sorry for wasting your time and thanks much for the help as always.
