I find myself having to scroll down page after page to get to the bottom of a web page (on forums for instance to find the latest post.) I know you can tap on the status bar at the top to jump to the top of the webpage, is there a quick way to jump to the bottom?
 
I don't get it. By the time, you go thru all those steps, I'd be at the bottom of the page. Am I missing something?

Once you save and edit the bookmark, if you are on a long page, all you have to do is click bookmarks, then scroll to end and its done. Its much quicker than constantly flicking the screen!
 
Now, the find option would be sweet, definitely something safari should have had for iPhone. Does that work like a typical find?

well it doesn't have search next or search previous but it is truly helpful.....actually scrap that, the findinpage version 2 has those features i think, but I'll just stick to version 1...

and you're wrong about being able to flick to the bottom quicker than I can by using the scroll to bottom bookmark.....it's like instantaneous! Try it out, I'm sure you'll like it a lot.

I was just playing around with Find. Once you click on bookmarks and then Find, you will get a popup box just like on that site asking you what you want to find. Type, click ok. It will then say "3 matches" for instance and will highlight in yellow the matches. I'm going to try out the Find Next too, to see if I can sroll through the page that way, but this is a great start and very useful!
 
good call on Safari+ why apple hasn't put find in page is beyond me...
oh well, we have something left to buy in iphone 3GS+ i guess ;)

Yep, added find and it works great. Highlights the stuff, which is fine. So, I added the "go to bottom" of page, or whatever it was called, and that works great too. Thanks for telling us about that uiop.
