I'm using the OnTextChange event on a textbox on an ASP.NET page. To have this working I have to put 'AutoPostBack=true'.

The problem is that the textbox is on the bottom of the page, and when the text changes it has to fill another textbox. This is working fine but when the event triggers the page refreshes and jumps to the top of the page, so I always have to scroll down again to see it. (Due to the autopostback)

Is there anything I can do to prevent it to jump to the top of the page?

Issue is because of AutoPostBack=true.
Because of this your page is get reloaded.

So instead of that you can achieve the same functionality using javascript without page postback as mentioned below :

TextBoxes :

XML

<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBox1" onchange="ManageText(this.value)"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBox2"></asp:TextBox>

JavaScript Method :

XML

function ManageText(value) 
{
 document.getElementById('<%=TextBox2.ClientID%>').value = value;
}
