Return to a div on contact form submission.

So I'm working through the Php basics website track with Alena and the media library website.

I'm up to the contact form submission section.

I have the form working as required however when the Php returns an error I'd like it to go to the div the contact form is in.

My contact form is at the bottom of a page. So if when submitted it returns to the top of this page.

You should be able to do something like this

<div id="form-div">
<form method="post" action="yourpage.php#form-div">
<input type="text" name="test">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</div>

When the form is submitted, the page should show the div because of the #form-div id in the form action.

I haven't tested it but I imagine it should work.
