# [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Slideshow Page Position

 * After creating and displaying a gallery it offers, on the page itself, the option
   to start a slideshow. When I click on this option I return to the top of the 
   page and have to scroll down to watch the slideshow.
 * Is there a way to stay in the original position where I was before I pushed the
   slideshow option?
 * Thanks, Nick

 * Is this resolved? In which way?
 * When I click on the option for slideshow, page return to the top and I have to
   scroll down to watch the slideshow.
 * Was the same with images viewed in shutter, but for this I found the solution.
 * There’s a way to remain at the same place, everytime we open gallery or slideshow?

 * The problem here is, that the slideshow Link has `href="#"` which is an anchor
   for the top of the page. I guess that an `onclick="do_something();return false;"`
   should solve this problem and leave the href empty.
 * PS: do_something(); is just a placeholder for whatever slideshow-function will
   be executed by that link… just add the `return false;` after it and everything
   should work as expected.

 * Hi Daluxe, thanks very much for your reply!
    I understand in theory, but in practice
   I don’t know where to change, in which file. I looked in nggfunctions.php, but
   I haven’t found nothing with “onclick”. So I looked in shutter-reloaded.js and
   I have found some “onclick”, but all of them already have “return false”, except
   for this three:
 *     ```
       case 39:
       			if (prevlink) prevlink.onclick();
       			break;
       		    case 37:
       			if (nextlink) nextlink.onclick();
       			break;
       		    case 27:
       			if (closelink) closelink.onclick();
       ```
   
 * and for this:
 * `D.innerHTML = '<div id="shWrap"><img src="'+shutterLinks[ln].link+'" id="shTopImg"
   title="' + t.msgClose + '" onload="shutterReloaded.showImg();" onclick="shutterReloaded.
   hideShutter();" />' + NavBar +'</div>';`
 * So I added `return false;` after `onclick="shutterReloaded.hideShutter();"` but
   nothing happens, I think it’s not the right place.
 * P.S.: For the images (picture list) I have changed in shutter-reloaded.js
    `document.
   documentElement.style.overflowX = '';` in `document.documentElement.style.overflowX
   = 'hidden';` and it works.

 * I can’t believe that no one else has this problem or the solution.
    It happens
   with different browsers. Well, if you have a page only with slideshow or gallery
   isn’t a big problem, but if you have slideshow at the article’s bottom, it’s 
   so annoying.

 * I am trying, in Dashboard>Pages, to postion my Nextgen slide show on the right
   side of the page. I can move the [slideshow id=1] note to the right side of the
   page with the Align buttton, but that does not move the slide show itself (in
   the browser) to the right side. How can I do this?
