Abstract
An improved system and method for maintaining a view location during the rendering of content on a display of an electronic device. When a user views a web page or similar content while the content is in the process of being loaded onto the display of the electronic device, a reference point is selected corresponding to a portion of the web page that appears on the display. As additional material is downloaded, it is added to the web page. If the new material is located on a portion of the web page before the reference point, then the portion of the web page that appears on the display is substantially maintained.
