I have one button in a div tag. That div tag also has a vertical scroll bar.
If I scroll that bar and click on the button which is inside that div, it should return the scroll position as an alert message.
How to do that using JavaScript?

document.getElementById("yourButton").onclick = function() {
alert(document.getElementById("yourDiv").scrollTop);
}
