Thanks.  But I guess that I did not explain properly.  I did in fact
do as you suggested and have a div for all A's, one for B's etc.  The
list is still long for some of the letters.  So when hitting the back
button, rather than just returning to that div, I would like for it to
actually return to the <li> that had the referring link.  If that is
near the bottom of the div, that is where I would like to return to
when hitting the back button. Does this make more sense?
