I am using selenium webdriver. In my application header is constant.
And different part of the page has its own scroll bars is there any way to control these individual scrolls with selenium webdriver. If i am using
javascript: window.scrollTo(0,0)
but the behaviour is not deterministic if i m inside the context of inner scroll bar i m not able to scroll main window.
Any Help....
Thanks

Webdriver scrolls elements into view when you select of click on them.
So there's no need to use javscrascript, but if you choose to do so that is not a Webdriver issue.
If WebDriver isn't workin gas it should be then show us the details and someone will try to help resolve the issue.

I'm not sure how this is supposed to help clarify the problem for us.
I think you need to provide a simple reprodicable test case. i.e. a complete web page either as an attachment or a public site, and small set of code that together show the problem.
Then we might be able to see the problem in action for ourselves and pinpoint where the issue is, or confirm that it seems to be a bug in WebDriver.

What happens when you're in the context of inner scroll bar area? Any

scrolling occur within inner scroll bar? Or nothing happens to either
scroll bars?
> Not able to find any way to scroll inside dhtml grid.
automation and web development, is there javascript code that can be
written to scroll scrollbars that are part of an element (e.g. div,
textarea, span, iframe, frame, etc.)? I think most people think to
control scrolling at the browser window level only (or I mis-assumed).
Maybe something like to
document.getElementById('someId').scrollTo(x,y) or more complicated
stuff like the mouseOver event emulation with javascript?

This seems to be issue issue in webdriver. As a workaround i am scrolling using javascript :
<divId>.scrollTop = 0;
or for main window: window.scrollTo(0,0)
this way i am scrolling wherever webdriver fails to handle. I am not sure exactly in which case webdriver fails to scroll and for which interaction. As far as i noticed scroll issue comes frequently for click than type.
And problem comes in case of nested div or tables all with scroll bars.
