Explanation
CSS is used to place the link at the botttom of the page.
In script I have hooked to scroll event of the document and while scrolling I check whether scrollTop property is greater than desired scroll position, if yes I show the TOP link. On click of top link I simply set scrollTop to zero and hide top link. See it easy.
