Go to top of page

Written by @kerixa 21 August 2012

Most websites that have long texts to read use a button to help the users to return to the beginning. When a user scrolls and reads a large amount of text and wants to return to the top of the page, he does not need to scroll several times to come back to the top of the page. Instead just by clicking on a button he/she returns to the top of the page, automatically. In this code, this possibility is provided for you. In addition, the button is not displayed always when the user is at the top of the page, and by scrolling slightly and moving away from the top of the page, the scroll button is displayed.

Code Snippet:

                                                
                                                <!-- this script is provided by www.javascriptfreecode.com coded by: Kerixa Inc. -->

<!-- SUMMARY BRIEF

	This DHTML script will put a small watermark
	link in the bottom right corner of your page
	that will stay there even when the page scrolls.
	This link will always take the user back to
	the top of the page.
