Hi,how is it possible to actually go back to the original position on last page like safari’s back/forward function.
I read this on this link:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24153594/uiwebview-goback-to-the-original-position-on-last-page
They say:
Web view has a scrollView property, scrollView has a contentOffset property that you can get or set.

Is this possible in B4I I didn't find this property in Webview B4i , I need to set and get this offset property
can it be done with NativeObject if yes then how ?

thanks, but i didn't find anything i think , but i found some java script- code

in override url I get the scroll top with :

B4X: 
Dim no As NativeObject = WebView1
Dim offset As Object = no.RunMethod("stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:",Array("document.body.scrollTop;"))

scroll_top =offset

Then in WebView1_PageFinished I want to set the scroll_top in WebView1_PageFinished with :
B4X: 
This wil not work
Dim no As NativeObject = WebView1
no.RunMethod("stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:", Array("document.body.scrollTop ='scroll_top';"))

This works
no.RunMethod("stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:", Array("document.body.scrollTop =800;"))

But how do I get the value off scroll_top in this string ?

Erel , how can I put a variable in this javascript line ?
I don't have experience with this.

no.RunMethod("stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:", Array("document.body.scrollTop =800;"))

I want to replace the 800 with a variable name, wich is used by B4I
I tried something but it didn 't work.

weird it gives invalid number off parentheses ,I count four off them

B4X: 
no.RunMethod($"stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:", Array("document.body.scrollTop =${scroll_top};"$))
