How to scroll HTML page to given anchor using jQuery or Javascript?

Function scrollTo(hash) { location. Hash = "#" + hash; } No jQuery required at all!

I tried this and decided to use this. You were also the first and had shortest code. – Juha Syrjälä Jul 2 '10 at 6:38.

You can use jQuerys .animate(), .offset() and scrollTop. Like $(document. Body).

Animate({ 'scrollTop': $('#anchorName2').offset(). Top }, 2000); example link: jsbin.com/unasi3/edit If you don't want to animate use .scrollTop() like $(document. Body).

ScrollTop($('#anchorName2').offset(). Top); or javascripts native location. Hash like location.

Hash = '#' + anchorid.

As far as creating a selector to find the or an , use $('#'+hash+',aname='+hash+'') or slightly optimized $(document. GetElementById(hash) || 'aname='+hash+'') which will search for the element by id first, and resort to searching the a's only if one isn't found. – gnarf Jul 2 '10 at 7:36.

Something as easy as should do the trick. Function jumpToAnchor(anchor){ location. Href = location.

Href+"#"+ anchor; } Another option would be to use the jQuery ScrollTo plugin.

I tried this and it works also. – Juha Syrjälä Jul 2 '10 at 6:39 @Juha glad it worked as well. :) – ahsteele Jul 2 '10 at 6:53.

Way simpler: element_to_scroll_to = document. GetElementById('anchorName2'); element_to_scroll_to.scrollIntoView().

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
