Hi,

I want to know that when somebody wants to come back on the previously visited web pages or urls on the same point or a place where he did leave that page or url or a tab menu lastly. or in simple words, if a table contains hundred rows and the visitor was on 58th row when he moved to next page or tab, and while returning back by clicking back in browser then how would I get him on the same row or point or a place where he had left? In the same session as well as in a new session.

Solution 1

ViewState["PreviousPage"] = Request.UrlReferrer; // In Present Page Store the Url of previous page

Response.Redirect(ViewState["PreviousPage"].ToString());

// In Present Page Button Click redirect to previous page

This is really a no-real-world requirement. Think as a user's perspective. When you click on a link or come back on a page after visiting and leaving and suddenly you get to a position you did not intend to go to, you willl start scratching your head that what's wrong with the application? Nowhere in the web applications it happens(in terms of my very little knowledge). Now for a very no-real-world problem a no-real-world solution:
Use JavaScript function whenever you leave a page(onbeforeunload) and save body scroll position in cookies. Now whenever you comeback to the same page get the cookie and set body scroll. Same thing can be done for tabs etc. All the best and hope it helps.
