How can I get to the same place after hitting the back button instead of going to the top of my homepage?
After reading an article I hit the back button and it goes back to the top of the page. Is there a way to go back to the exact spot I I clicked on so I don't have to scroll down to where I left off?
Thanks; Steve

Not sure why that's happening. I just attempted to duplicate the problem but when I click on the back arrow, the page is in the same spot I left it at.
Instead of superimposing windows on top of each other, always open a new tab for each web page you visit. If you find the tabs take up a lot of room along the top of the screen, you can pin them. Right-click on the tab and select, Pin Tab.
Firefox usually returns to the previous spot when you go back -- if the page is cached. Some sites instruct Firefox not to cache the page, so Firefox does a full reload and puts you back at the top. For example, Reddit users have complained about this (see: Going back to the previous page refreshes the whole page).
As suggested by heather53, you could try to develop the habit of opening links in a new tab using either Ctrl+click, or middle-clicking using the mouse scroll wheel, or right-click > Open Link in New Tab. Then you never leave your home page in the original tab.
Alternately, there might be an add-on or "hack" for the site giving you trouble. Do you want to mention what page it is?
I tried all the things suggested and still does it. Also it only seems to do this below the people and places section.
Do you want to post the URL of the page?
Sure here's some I randomly selected
I went to the home page and scrolled down to the Food articles. McBreakfast anyone? When I go back, the page initially is in that same spot, but at some point flips to the top as though it was scripted to do that. I don't think this is the usual issue with no caching allowed, I think it's how the page is designed to work. Does it behave differently in other browsers?
works right with IE
Try complaining to Fox News. Maybe they can turn that off.
The page I opened with IE was fox news and it worked there
Yes, I meant if you want to use Firefox on their site without the page scrolling to the top, I suggest informing them of the problem.
OK will do
