Can We Have A "Return To Top Of Page" Like Ebay?

Just curious. I am not very advanced with these issues. It seems
nice when on ebay to be able to return to the top of the page you are on, with the touch of a button. I do not know what that would take to
implement?

You already have that function on the keypad in front of you.

It is called HOME. Touch it and you'll go to the top of the page.

It has an opposite, called END. Touch that and you'll go to the bottom of the page.

In between these extremes, use PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN to move in sections throughout the page.

What about CTRL "Home" ?

Thanks uboatnut, didn't need CTRL which I have always used.....Hmmm

There are different keyboard layouts when it comes to these shortcuts, especially if you have a numerical keypad. Since I keep NumLock on all the time, the "Home" and CTRL Home don't work on my keypad without turning off NumLock.

However, look around your keyboard, as some keyboards have a 3rd option. For example, on my keyboard I have another Home and End button that can be accessed by holding down the FN key. On my keyboard, the coloring of the lettering lets you know which key to hold down (CTRL, FN, ALT, ALT GR...) to access alternate key mapping. Quite useful for me since I keep my NumLocks set.

Ok, I will try those options.

I did say I am not that advanced. I always scroll and scroll.

Sorry to ask such a goofy question!

It's not a goofy question at all. To be honest, I never thought about using Home, End, PageUp, PageDown... keys until someone asked a similar question on another board. I thought those days of using those keys on my terminal emulators 30 years ago were long gone when the mouse and scroll mouse came along. Now I've gotten used to scrolling when Home/End would be much faster. Habits are hard to change.

There's one on every post, bottom right.

Thanks to you all,

Maybe I should ask for espresso in in my coffee in the AM. I try and think I get many things, however many simple things go right over my head.

Well whaddya know! Been here so long, but I still need to explore SCF some more!

Ha, this is a pretty good one!

D'oh!

Beat me, I thought that was a link to a note to staff.
Looks like we all learnt something.

Keep scrolling way down, by the copyright notice. Or ctrl-arrow down. No reason for most of us to be there if one is trying to keep to topic.

Thank you, the home/end and all other tips are awesome!

It is good to learn something new every day.

I have independent arrow keys that aren't tied to the keypad. And indeed, CTRL up/down arrow works just like HOME and END! Excellent! Learn something new on SCF almost every time I visit!
