    When placing a top link at the bottom of a web page is it normal if it was to show on pages where the page doesnt need to be scrolled and you are essentially always at the top?

    Thanks

    I don't think there's really any way to tell how long the page will be, so if you're using it on a dynamic web page, then you don't have a lot of choice. But I don't think it matters too much personally.

    Thank you, I was just worried in case users may find it odd being on a page which isnt long :D

    I agree with cheat-master. It's not that big of a deal, and if you don't know how long every page will be, it's hard to find a happy medium for placing the "to top" links.

    I've always wanted to take some time and possibly put a "Back to First Post" link in all subsequent replies of threads, but I've never gotten around to it.
