How can I scroll halfway down a page in safari immediately?

So--  Lion introduced this whole "there are no scroll bars" concept-- which I am trying to embrace, but I just found myself getting frustrated about it so I wanted to ask if there are any user tips to make it less annoying...
I was on this webpage in safari:
http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#DOCUMENTATION/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation /Classes/NSArray_Class/NSArray.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSArray/subarrayWithRa nge
And I knew I wanted to go somewhere near the bottom of the document-- but there is no way to click on a scroll bar to get there...  And I am on a trackpad, and I found that if I drag-scroll on the trackpad, a scroll bar does appear, but I only have a very short time window to click on it and drag it down.  Several times I attempted to click on it, but it faded away before I could actually get it.
I thought to myself:  This is really annoying...  And stupid!  But--  There must be a way to make this more functional, so I thought I'd ask here.
Thanks.

You've picked and interesting example.
Scrolling on that page does not behave as it should.  The scroll bar should remain visible as long as your mouse is moving, it shoull also enlarge as you mouse over it so you can grab it more easily.
Compare it to this site or just about anyother website.
For example:

  • Can I set up a home page in safari

    How can I set up a home page in Safari on the iPad

    There isn't a home page capability in Safari but you can add an icon of a page URL to the Home screen. Touching this icon will start Safari and point it to that URL.

  • My phone spazzes and randomly does stuff on its own like typing a bunch of random letters, or scrolling up/down a page, or going out of an app. What can be done about that?

    I have a 5S and I've had it since december. ever since i got it I've had trouble whit it. It spaces out at random times, types stuff on its own, goes out of applications, scrolls up/down a page etc. This happens almost daily and the only thing I can do about it is lock my phone, go back in, quit all my apps... Along with that now my touch ID has not been working. Although it has started today, I am worried.

    I have an iPhone 6 and have been having this issue since I got it in December 2014. Apps open on their own, scrolling up and down, etc. It's like a ghost is touching the screen. It seems to be the worst when my Verizon connection is only at 3G or my wifi strength is low. I'm not sure if it's an iPhone thing or a carrier issue?? Any ideas?

  • Scroll list down by page wise using mouse

    hi experts,
      how   can we scroll a list page wise  rather than line wise using scroll button of  mouse .
      my requirement is to generate a list consisting of 38 lines per page and each set of 38 lines
      should come in a new page that i have done using new-page, but problem is when i scroll
      down a list using mouse scroll button next page should be displayed rather than scrolling
      line by line . just like using pagedown key of the keyboard,
    thanks in advance.

    I think this is not possible, I don't think controlling the mouse operation is possible

  • How can I view more than two pages at a time?

    How can I view more man two pages at a time?
    As a muscian reading digital sheets on Reader, being able to veiw as many as 3 to 5 pages at a time would be more helpful. Also, if it was possible to view any number of pages at time such as pages 1 and 2, 2 and 3, 3 and 4, or 5,6,7,and 8 instead of just 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 etc. my experience would be even better. thanks.

    The only way I could make Reader show 4 pages was to
    set View to 2 pages scrolling
    zoom out to display four pages:
    But for me that it to small to read anything...

  • Why do PDF files in email open in safari with a quick time logo but only one page shows and I can't scroll through the following pages?

    Why do PDF files in email open in safari with a quick time logo but only one page shows and I can't scroll through the following pages?

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • How can I scroll around an image if its zoomed out?

    Hey guys, quick one for you.
    I have no problem using the hand tool/spacebar to scroll around an image when zoomed into it, but as soon as I can see the whole thing I can't scroll around anymore and its just locked to the center
    I am a After Effects user so I find this a bit annoying that I can't do this, so I figure there MUST be a setting somewhere I could change to enable it.
    Thanks!

    Sorry but "How can I scroll around an image if its zoomed out?" has got to be one of the stupidest question I've heard on this forum in some time. Brandon really needs to think before posting.
    I've noticed your usual vitriol toward people having simple questions has ramped up about 200% since the advent of Jive, Buko. Maybe you need to disengage, or neck some holy fermented blue agave juice and take a nap?
    I see the question as perfectly cromulent, and I use the suggestion I've given quite often. Apparently, a good reason why anyone would want to do that has escaped you, and it's made you even crankier than usual. So you react by giving the gift of vile condescension instead of just ShuttingTFU and letting someone else handle it. (Next time you blast Ramon for the same thing, take a look at your own behavior). And apparently, it's not enough for you to just accept that the way someone else wants to work is different than your workdflow, or is something that never even occurred to you. Maybe some folks just want an answer to their question, and secretly wish you'd shove your bad attitude up your [asterisk-substituted name for your lower-dorsal body opening]. Of course, some folks are just too polite, or they're new visitors here and won't say that to you because they don't know the legacy players and behaviors here. But I'm not either of those things, and I will. Because if you can dish it out, surely you can take it, right? RIGHT!?!?
    Now...why do I think the question is worth answering? Sometimes I want to be able to have an entire smallish image visible at 100% magnification in order to view it as it will appear in its final destination. AND I want to do some work on it while keeping all my currently-open Palettes visible; maybe I want to move my image out of the way of a big dialogue box I've called up. (I'm only working on one monitor...sorry if that makes your hardened jaw drop down to your chest).
    In Single-Window made mode I'd have to grab and move the whole window, but I can't do that if I have a big dialogue window open. In full screen mode I can scroll around and see all parts of that image at 100% without having to Tab my palettes to their hidden state, or shove my open dialogue nearly off-screen.
    Think past your own nose, Dude! And LightenTFUp!

    CFB3 Question: How can I add an existing cfm page to a project? I created a project and copied a file into the project folder but I can't seem to find a way to add the cfm file into the project.

    @Carl - Well heck, yes I did... But after reading your response I went back and tried right-clicking on and refreshing different things and what worked was right-clicking on the project name in the Navigator window and then clicking on refresh in that context menu.
    Thank you Carl!

  • How can I delete an old web page ??

    How can I delete an old web page ?? I have created a web page some time ago and now I want to delete it but i do not know how to do it: can anyone help me ?

    Delete the web page where it is published.
    If it is published to MobileMe, then you need to log into MobileMe and go to your iDisk or mount it on your desktop and then delete it from your Web/sites folder.
    If you have published to a server, then you'll need to download Cyberduck, Filezilla or Transmit - all dedicated ftp programmes to connect with your host/server and then delete your old files from the server.
    It really is not hard.
