You can use the pagemark extension. It isn't automatic (you have to right-click select pagemark to save the position and the same to return to the position), but it works.

Huh. Maybe I could redo that code with anchors so that everyone comes back to where they started...

I thought we tried that and there was a problem with some browser compatibility or somesuch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Eh -- I don't care enough, I don't think. But thanks for the info!!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'll skim BBaBB. I can't see why we wouldn't have tried it, but I also can't see why it wouldn't work.

Which is sure to mean there's a perfectly good reason, and I'm losing brain cells.

Is there a tool that allows you to see a list of all the web pages that contain links to your web page? I am sorry if this is a really dumb question.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Not outside of the NSA. :)

You can look at your server's referrer logs to see where folks have been linked to your pages from, but that won't show you any pages where there's a link posted that no one has clicked on yet.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Or if you just happen to be Google.

Speaking of which, can you google (or otherwise search) for a URL itself, rather than the text of a link? i.e. the stuff in the href quotes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If you google the URL, you get the following options:
