I have a question about the cursor going to the top of the page and losing my 
place.  If I am viewing something on a web page, for instance an article from a 
newspaper, and want to go bak a page to click on the next item, I lose my place 
on that page once I've gone back.  I'm back up at the top.  This didn't happen 
before I got a Mac.  Is there any setting I could change to stop this behavior? 
 Thanks.
