I agree with both Abi and Mark about this. I'm impressed that it remains accessible without scripts, and I like that a lot.
I think you'd want to use this very selectively. In most cases, it's an advantage to me that my screen contains a finite amount of information I can sort through and use. My specific usage exception might be for archived material in a wiki, news site or the like -- cases in which you're unlikely to want anything at the very bottom. No, maybe not even for that. Try this: reload the page (with javascript enabled), and use your browser's search function to find "PHP Throwdown" (which is several "pages" down). You won't find it because it isn't loaded yet, and it won't be loaded until you scroll down to it. As often happens with javascript, some basic functionality is denied. Search is a very important feature to toss aside without good reason. Also, this script may make the assumption that the user who enables javascript has a fast connection. I'm on a T1 line now, and the load time was noticeable. Anybody care to test this on a dial-up connection? Don't get me wrong, I think it's _very_ cool. But these are accessibility problems that can come back to bite you later, if not considered at the start. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
