If you want to scroll entire page to the bottom:

var scrollingElement = (document.scrollingElement || document.body);
scrollingElement.scrollTop = scrollingElement.scrollHeight;

See the sample on JSFiddle

If you want to scroll an element to the bottom:

function gotoBottom(id){
   var element = document.getElementById(id);
   element.scrollTop = element.scrollHeight - element.clientHeight;
}

And that's how it works:

Ref: scrollTop, scrollHeight, clientHeight

UPDATE: Latest versions of Chrome (61+) and Firefox does not support scrolling of body, see: https://dev.opera.com/articles/fixing-the-scrolltop-bug/
