many keyboards have actual keys for these functions

on mine, they are called Home and End

(and yes, the keys next to them are called PageUp and PageDown even though
they don't have anything to do with "pages")

just because you yourself -- not you specifically, Hershel, i'm speaking to
the web page designers out there -- use a mouse, does not mean that you have
to start larding your design with links to click on that do basic functions
like positioning the web page at the top or bottom (or going back or
forward, which are features provided by the browser)
