I am using jquery auto complete combo box in my code with scroll bar.Issue I am facing is as below.
Once page is loaded then you click on show all button.it will show all the results.Now scroll till end of result.
then close the list without selecting any option i.e click anywhere outside result list.
Now once again when I try to open the list by clicking show all button scroll position is set to end of list.I want it to be at top of list.
