Imagine them pulling it off back then, but without coming up with any scroll function!

The solution is called paging. It's the concept of dividing content into chunks of discrete size, then provide a mechanism to change the currently shown page. The mechanism typically consists of commands such as "next page", "precious page" and "goto page number." This system was initially implemented in paper-based media such as books and newspapers.
