I have a form that is at the bottom of the page, but on error the page reloads and go to the top of page and form is not visible anymore.

the question : is it possible to target an anchor en error so that the user sees the form and error rather than think the form was sent?

thanks

Script we made today to scroll to .error when its not empty

	
	<script>
		$(document).ready(function () {
			var errorDiv = $('.error:not(:empty)').first();
			var scrollPos = errorDiv.offset().top-150;
			$('html,body').animate({scrollTop: scrollPos}, 1500);
		});
	</script>

This will scroll the an .error span if validation failed, but only works after the page has already been submitted.
