Iframe with HTML5 Viewer takes focus on page and forces page to jump to iframe on load.

I am embedding a HTML5 Viewer into our website. The iframe is located at the bottom of the page and onload, the page jumps down to the Iframe. 

I have tried adding an anchor to the top of the page, but the iframe still forces the page to jump. From what I have researched, looks like the viewer takes "focus". Is there a way to make the viewer focus = "false" so that the iframe does not force the page to jump?

 

Or does anyone else have a workaround for this?

I am testing in Chrome and Firefox.

 

 

My viewer also has a startup workflow for a disclaimer, as well as a startup Workflow 5 workflow. Not sure if this plays into the issue or not.

Thanks,

  I had the same problem with the viewer stealing focus as well. My workaround for this was to use the iframe's 'sandbox' attribute.

  Thanks for the info. 

  I tried using the Sandbox attribute and it does solve the focus issue, but leads to some viewer issues, so unfortunately this won't work for us.

   

   

  I will continue to look for a workaround.
