Here's a TIP for Internet Explorer ver. 5.5 and up


Note: This will not work with earlier versions. To see which version
you have, click on the Help menu and click on About Internet
Explorer. A new small screen will pop up with version information, etc.
   

If you right-click a scroll bar in Internet Explorer 5.5 or later, you get a context menu with a variety of scrolling options: Top, Bottom, Scroll Up, Scroll Down, Page Up, and Page Down. But the favorite, especially for long Web pages, is Scroll Here. Instead of dragging the scroll bar up and down, you can right-click where you want to go (relatively) and click Scroll Here to get to a specific portion of the page. This also works with the bottom scroll bar! Go ahead and try it, it will become clear once you use it.
