Hi there, welcome to the forums.

Yes, its called anchoring.

Make an anchor like this -

<a name="myAnchor">I am at the bottom</a>

then link to it like this -

<a href="#myAnchor">Go to bottom</a>

hey thanks for the help! and thanks for the welcome! it took me awhile to figure out how to use the anchor you gave me O_o.. haha but yeah.. it only goes to the bottom if the person clicks on it, is there any way for them to be redirected AUTOMATiCALLY to the bottom? and have nothing written like "i am at the bottom" and "go to bottom"? well please try to help me.. hehe thanks again! =)

when you say 'automatically', what event do you wish to trigger this? It would make no sense to never allow your visitor to see the top of the page.

if you mean when the page loads, you can use the anchor in a link, like

<a href="http://www.mywebsite.com/index.html#myAnchor"> go to the bottom of a different page </a>

well its because the top has a advertisement, but all my stuff in is a frame and that scrolls so if the page goes to the way bottom, the ad doesnt show unless the person scrolls up. i dont know if it has to be redirected, but i just want the person to see everything except the ad at the top when they first enter the page. is that possible to make the page go to the way bottom when u just click on the link?
