I'm not a programmer and I manage for work a web platform based on php+mysql with a prototype engine, where data form are opened/passed to server using the old modalbox script.
Until let's say one year ago or so after editing ora adding data in the modal window and closing it the parent page reloaded to the same scroll point I was.. and this was very useful because the platform generate very long data list.
Actually this don't work anymore and I'can't find the way to make it work.
Here's the code I use on the form closing button:

```
<a href="" onclick="Modalbox.hide( {afterHide: parent.location.reload()}); return false;">Continue</a>

```

I also add two infos:

* I've parent page list with anchor generated dinamically by a db query, that could be used in the child modal..
* could be great to avoid reload of page and update data dinamically, but may be this is another step beyond
