Can Assistive Techologies remember in a page where they linked from to
another page and go back there when pressing the back button instead of
going back to the top of the page? For example, if I have a long document
page and need to link to a long descriptions page for an image using a
D-link, I want the user to be able to continue on with where they left off
in the original page instead of having to sift through the beginning info
again. I found that IBM Home Page Reader goes right back to the top of the
page which can be frustrating but I've known other browsers like Explorer or
Netscape to remember the placement in the page to go back to. See Example:
