Scroll Lock key. Sometimes abbreviated as ScLk, ScrLk, or Slk, the Scroll Lock key is found on a computer keyboard, often located close to the pause key. While not often used today, the Scroll Lock key was originally intended to be used in conjunction with the arrow keys to scroll through the contents of a text box.
First, use your mouse to click anywhere on the page you'd like to read; this lets the computer know where you are reading. Then, tap the down arrow just once to scroll down a little bit at a time. If you hold the arrow down, you'll scroll all the way down to the bottom and may miss all the information in the middle.
