ok I seriuosly have no clue what or how to find out how to do this.

you know how if you put
http://www.yourdomain.com/#
this will bring you to the top of the page, I was wondering if there was a way to bring me down to the bottome of the page.
can you do this with javascript onload?
or html... plz help..

i havent been on in long time..

top is default-- no need for #.

Similar in theory to a ?variable=value "get" variable that can be used in PHP (etc), the #target attribute at the end of a url is a way of sending extra info. It doesn't change which file is requested, but rather which then what it looks for on that page.

Simply add #myanchorname to the end of your link. Done.

And, of course, setup an anchor/target somewhere on your page (like the bottom).

It would be possible using Javascript to probably scrollto(something), but that seems unreliable.

In the HTML version it will look like so:

HTML Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>your title</tile>
</head>

<body>
<a href="#bottom">Click Here To Go Down</a>

//rest of content that makes this page long enough to require a go down link...






<div id="#bottom"></div>
</body>
</html>

That's about it for the HTML version. Do the opposite for top. The JavaScript Scrolling that Daniel was talking about is done like so:

Code:

function backToTop() {
    var x1 = x2 = x3 = 0;
    var y1 = y2 = y3 = 0;

    if (document.documentElement) {
        x1 = document.documentElement.scrollLeft || 0;
        y1 = document.documentElement.scrollTop || 0;
    }

    if (document.body) {
        x2 = document.body.scrollLeft || 0;
        y2 = document.body.scrollTop || 0;
    }

    x3 = window.scrollX || 0;
    y3 = window.scrollY || 0;

    var x = Math.max(x1, Math.max(x2, x3));
    var y = Math.max(y1, Math.max(y2, y3));

    window.scrollTo(Math.floor(x / 2), Math.floor(y / 2));

    if (x > 0 || y > 0) {
        window.setTimeout("backToTop()", 25);
    }
}

With the link to start it looks like:

Code:

<a href="#" onclick="backToTop(); return false">Back to Top</a>

Of course I am just now teaching myself JS so I haven't tested this fully, and there are probably some mistakes...
