Problem: people don't scroll down or stop at first horizontal line/space.
Solution: navbar at top to let people know there's more on the page

  1. Add anchor tags for the parts of the main page just before each of them.
    <a name="ANCHORNAME"></a>
  2. Main table
  3. Search
  4. Map By Zip Code
  5. Chart Cumulative Raised
  6. Top Contributors
  7. Promiscuous Contributors
  8. Add horizontal text nav menu near top, linking to each of the parts
    links: <a href="#ANCHORNAME">ClickMeText</a>
  9. Side-by-Side
  10. Search
  11. Fundraising Map
  12. Fundraising Over Time
  13. Top Givers
  14. Givers To More Than One
  15. Add "top" anchor tag after <body> tag

Is this actually a problem? My impression is that most users, even those who aren't very comfortable with technology, have been trained to scroll down for more content by now?

@amandaric do you know if you / the user testing folks have seen this happen?

I'm not too concerned with navigation because the page break cuts off the information in such a way as to suggest further information below (at least in my browser). It'd probably be good to test on other devices and consider evaluating this potential issue if we decide to conduct usability tests. On some of the candidate pages there is a bit of an infinite scroll experience as you search the long list of donors. A "back to top" button located at the bottom of the page might be good idea.

@amandaric I like the "Back up to the top" button idea
