How to make a back-to-top button using CSS and HTML only?

Issue

I'm trying to do a back to top button but to scroll down and up to a certain point on the page. For instance you have a long text and you want to bring the user to the next paragraph by simply having them to click on a link... I've done it in the past but I can't remember how I did it for the life of me...

Solution

What you would want to do is put an "anchor" at the top of the page, using an <a> tag (it's not JUST useful for links!). Then, when you have a link that goes to #nameofanchor, it scrolls to the anchor with that name. You'd do it like this:

<a id="top"></a>
<!--content here-->
<a href="#top">Back to top</a>
