In HTML forms you can SEE where the input fields are. You don't have to "PROTECT" the HTML document from warping. You don't have to hit a special key when an HTML document is larger than your screen.

Input elements have 'readonly' and 'disabled' and most other elements can have 'contenteditable'. > You don't have to hit a special key when an HTML document is larger than your screen. Page Down?
