PhoneGap / Cordova scrollTo Ignored

Question

I'm using Cordova 1.9.0 on iOS and loading an external site into the UIWebView container. Everything runs at it should however if you scroll down the page and click a link the next page loads at the same scroll position rather than at the top of the page.

I have been unable to force it to load the pages at the top so now I'm trying to use:

window.scrollTo( 0, 0 );

However this seems to be completely ignored when run in the simulator and on the phone whereas it works fine in Safari on the desktop.

Any help would be appreciated.
