Of course I realize that the standard practice in software is to do

not.
Nice to know I'm not the only one! I guess this is the logic of anyone
who thinks of this as of reading... Page down takes you to the next
page, not to the preceding one.
But you see, right there is a major intuition flaw for some people -- my
mother-in-law, for instance, had the hardest time getting Page-Down (and
indeed the whole downward-scrolling concept) and Page-Up (and the
concept of up-scrolling) since when you click the Page-Down button the
actual image on the screen moves UP. She (and I'm sure lots of other
users) feel that when you click the up-scroll icon, the image should do
what you are telling it to do, and actually move UP the screen.
So as I mentioned in another post a minute ago -- there will NEVER be a
user interface that all will agree upon as being intuitive.
