Retaining the position in a table and return to it after having follow a link to another a page (PART II)

I had to launch a new discussion (PART II) because no action are available on the first part (Why? I would have liked to reply to Nancy https://forums.adobe.com/people/Nancy%20OShea  on the first part).

First, I would like to answer to Nancy. Let us assume that you have selected <Creative> on the menu of the home page of http://www.danielpisters.be/. Go to the second part of the window, bellow the first table “Les pouhons spontanés de l'Esprit au jour le jour”:

You click on « Expand » and get a (nearly) full screen view of the table. I can only reproduce a part of the expanded table too large vertically as horizontally:

After having built a new table based on the content of the first one, I get this expanded view on a new page using the following method:

<script type="text/javascript">

function openCreativePouhonsTblInNewTab(page)

{   

if(typeof(Storage)!=="undefined")

{

        // Yes! localStorage and sessionStorage support!

        // Some code.....

}

else

{

        alert("Sorry! No web storage support to rebuild the table on another page.");

        return;

}

var func = "";

func = storeLocCreativePouhonsTbl();

                  var versIE = isIE();

if ((versIE == false) || (versIE > 8))

{

                               window.open(page, '_blank')

                  }

                  else

                  {

                               //'height='+ screen.availHeight, // winHeight,

                               //'width='+ screen.availWidth, // winWidth,

                               var params = [

                                                 'location=yes',

                                                 'menubar=yes',

                                                 'status=yes',

                                                 'scrollbars=yes',

                                                 'fullscreen=yes'

                                                 ].join(',');

                               var w = window.open(page, '_blank', params);

                               w.focus();

                  }

}

</script>

Let us assume that you scrolled horizontally until you reached the column “Image” (the first on the left in the partial screenshot bellow):

You click twice on the "Image" column header to sort the content of the column:

So, all poems illustrated by a drawing (dessin au crayon) are grouped near the top of the table.

You follow the link <Dessin au crayon> on the twelfth row, for example, and get a view of the drawing on a new page:

When a you click on the back arrow, you return to the previous page with the table but the position in terms of row/column (In this case the “Image” column on the twelfth row) isn’t retained and the table has been shifted horizontally to its beginning row/column, no matter the position you reached in the expanded view of the table.

I'll test now at least some variant of Ben BenPleysier solution <input type="button" value="Go Back From Whence You Came!" onclick="history.back(-1)" /> but as the image is shown on full screen, I have no more place for a "Go Back" button.
