A frequently used method is to put the following at the very top of
your HTML files (right after the <body> tag):
<a name="top"></a>

And this near the bottom of the page to go to the top:
<a href="#top">Go to the top of the page</a>

Java script has to be linked to a button or image right?
This would not work on a text line <a></a>

No, it is foolish (in almost all cases, and surely if you had to ask).

Technically, it would at the simplest be the following (pure HTML):
<a href="#">Start of the current page</a>
but the foolishness results from the fact that every browser has a builtin
function for moving to the start of the current page, such as the Home key.
And you surely did not intend even to hide the useless link in a print
stylesheet, so all those links would appear on paper too.

Doesn't work in Opera without named/ided receiver.

Yes, I prefer the Home key, myself.
