To redirect users to a simple confirmation page after they submit an item to a list, I'm iframing the newform.aspx page in an embed web part and using the ?Source= url parameter like this :
https://xxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx/Lists/xxx/newform.aspx?IsDlg=0&Source=https://xxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx/SitePages/xxx.aspx#top
The redirect works fine but always opens at the bottom of the iframe so the confirmation message at the top of the page isn't visible unless users scroll up. I tried adding a named anchor to force the iframe to open at the top but that is disregarded. Is there any way to correct this aberrant Sharepoint only behavior?

Hi @matt howell ,
Could you please share the screenshot and more details to reproduce the issue? Per my test I found the embed web part works well in modern page.
the problem is if you are redirecting to another page with "less" height, that page will open in the iframe at the bottom so you can't see its cntent unless youi scroll up. This forum won't let me post the full code used with tags.........essentially it's this:
frame src="https://xxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx/Lists/xxx/newform.aspx?IsDlg=0&Source=https://xxx.sharepoint.com/sites/xxx/SitePages/xxx.aspx" width="100%" height="1780"></iframe

Sorry can't reply - this forum is garbage
Keep getting errors when I reply or comment
Anyhow, that onload works on initial page but not when new page is loaded.
Hi @matt howell ,
Thanks for your time in advance.
Could you try this code to scroll up when the redirect happened.
Would that go on the page with the iframe on it or the page being redirected to? Tried both and and iframe still opens at its bottom on the redirected page.
Hi @matt howell ,
Thanks for your time in advance. If the iframe redirect at second refresh. You can try following code to refresh.
//var to count times iframe has loaded
var timesRefreshed = 0;
//detect iframe loading/refreshing
$("iframe").load(function(){
//if second refresh, change frame src - ie dont count first load
if(timesRefreshed == 1){
$(this).attr("src","my site url here");
}
//add to times resreshed counter
timesRefreshed++;
});
Hi @matt howell ,
I am checking to see if the problem has been resolved.
No it hasn't. The page with the iframe on it is a modern page so I can't add anything there to force the iframe to open the target page at the top.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the exact same problem using a modern page and it really hurts the usability. Thanks.
