How do I create a "Back To Top" tab and a YouTube video link?

I have a page that list things (long list). How do I create a "Back To Top" button/tab at the bottom of the page. I use the "free" version of Microsoft Office Live Small business.

Also, I want to put a "YouTube" video on my site, and I don't want it to be embedded on my site so it takes up more of the 1 gig the site gives for free. I want the user to be able to view the YouTube video right on my site; I don't want them to be directed to YouTube should they view it. How is that done?

 Thanks.

Use the hyperlink tool type just # for the hyperlink.

Thanks for the info.

Tried you way but didn't see screens that allowed me to insert #.

What I did instead was, I called Microsoft (before posting this email) and they cleared something within my page that would allow for me to add a back button. Then I got your email. What I did instead was to edit the page, insert "back to top", highlighted it, right clicked it and selected "creat hypertext link", and linked that "back to top" wording/button to the page that has my long list of items. It work, but if you know the pros/cons of doing my way, let me know.

Also, do you know how to insert youtube videos on the Microsoft web page(s) ?

Thanks for your help.

Type the text you want for the back to top.  Select the text and click on hyperlink and check website.  Type # in the area you would put in the web site address. 

 

 This method works faster for viewers than selecting the same page as the link, selecting the same page reloads the page where the # jumps it back to the top without reloading.

Thanks. Will try that.

Do you know how to add youtube videos to pages? If so, can the youtube video window be resized so it don't take up a lot of space? I will have many on the page. I'd like the viewer to see the youtube video window (small), then when the click on it, it switches to the normal size (which is shown on my page; I don't want them to be taken to youtube to view the video; I want them to stay with my page). Thanks.

Skip that last part about adding the youtube vids to my site. They are not my videos and youtube have privacy policies that prohibits the use of other users' site info without their permission. That's cool. Will do it another way. I tried the "back to top" info you gave me and it worked. Thanks a bunch.
