Hi, whoever I open a new page on the net it always opens at the bottom. Is there a way so that it always opens from the top?

You may have to be more specific to get an answer.

Are you saying that when you open a web page, you see the bottom of the page as opposed to the top?

Yes, if I am on a site with more than one page. After reading I click onto the next one and find I am at the bottom so have to scroll back up to the top to continue where I left off from the proceeding page.

So if you're viewing a long thread on DS, and you're at the bottom of page 7 for example, you then click on the page 8 link, the new page opens at the bottom of the page and not the top?
With most Apple products, rebooting by holding down both the sleep and home buttons until the apple logo appears fixes theses kind of glitches.

You don't have to scroll to get to the top. Just tap the very top of the screen - you may need to do this twice.

I'd also suggest closing Safari in the app switcher and as a last resort clearing browsing history in safari settings.

Assuming that you are using Safari, do you have an ad blocker installed?

Only 12 posts before we get this vital piece of information!

Does it do it in Safari? No? Then it's an Opera problem.

LOL The iPad is certainly not 'toy town' sounds more like a user problem

Safari is only "flacky" because of the ads. Install a decent ad blocker. Define "grown up".

Good question. The iPad may not be to everybody's liking but imo, it's the most grown up tablet on the market.

Safari crashes when it gets low Ram. It seems to be just a feature of the memory management system, and why some sites crash more than most.

That is likely what crashsafari.com is doing, filling the Ram so tat Safari crashes.
If you use an adblocker, obviously you get more joy from the low memory resource made availlable, at least on regular sites.

IOS is a mobile operating system, and is simply not designed for full blown PC like experience for web sites. Android is similar but is certainly closer to how a normal PC works.
Chrome works on lower Ram by giving a compressed image data saving option.

If that option is on IOS Chrome, you had best tick it.
