Thanks Mark for the explanation. For those users who even don't see [Home] key or [back to top] link, I think they may need the extremely "good" sign to navigate inside the page. We will be still using the tabs as navigation, but not on the top. Put the tabs in a div, then using the JS to position the div. If the page has been scrolled down or up, whatever, the JS will reposition the div to make sure it's not outside of the view. But I don't like this crazy idea because 1. it increases the page-load; 2. a lot of work to do with media="print"

No, I think his point was that the tabs would be at the top of the page and the user would still have to scroll back to make use of them, unless the page was not long enough to take them out of view. Unless you were using frames, and the tabs were outside the content frame. Which would be a Bad Thing(tm).
