I've been trying to add a smooth scrolling function to my site for a while now but can't seem to get it to work.
Here is my HTML code relating to my navigation:
<div id="nav-wrapper">
<div id="nav" class="navbar navbar-inverse affix-top" data-spy="affix" data-offset-top="675">
<div class="navbar-inner" data-spy="affix-top">
<div class="container">
<!-- .btn-navbar is used as the toggle for collapsed navbar content -->
<a class="btn btn-navbar" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".nav-collapse">
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</a>
<!-- Everything you want hidden at 940px or less, place within here -->
<div class="nav-collapse collapse">
<ul class="nav">
<li><a href="#home">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#service-top">Services</a></li>
<li><a href="#contact-arrow">Contact</a></li>
</ul><!--/.nav-->
</div><!--/.nav-collapse collapse pull-right-->
</div><!--/.container-->
</div><!--/.navbar-inner-->
</div><!--/#nav /.navbar navbar-inverse-->
</div><!--/#nav-wrapper-->
Here is the JS code I've added:
<script src="js/jquery.scrollTo-1.4.3.1-min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(e) {
$('#nav').scrollSpy()
$('#nav ul li a').bind('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
target = this.hash;
console.log(target);
$.scrollTo(target, 1000);
});
});
</script>
For what it's worth, here is where I received info on what I've done so far, and here is my site in it's current form. If you can help me I'll bake you a pie or cookies or something. Thanks!

smooth-scrolling
What onetrickpony posted is okay, but if you want to have a more general solution, you can just use the code below.
Instead of selecting just the id of the anchor, you can make it bit more standard-like and just selecting the attribute name of the <a>-Tag. This will save you from writing an extra id tag. Just add the smoothscroll class to the navbar element.
What changed
1) $('#nav ul li a[href^="#"]') to $('#nav.smoothscroll ul li a[href^="#"]')
2) $(this.hash) to $('a[name="' + this.hash.replace('#', '') + '"]')
Final Code
/* Enable smooth scrolling on all links with anchors */
$('#nav.smoothscroll ul li a[href^="#"]').on('click', function(e) {
// prevent default anchor click behavior
e.preventDefault();
// store hash
var hash = this.hash;
// animate
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $('a[name="' + this.hash.replace('#', '') + '"]').offset().top
}, 300, function(){
// when done, add hash to url
// (default click behaviour)
window.location.hash = hash;
});
});
// styles.css
html {
scroll-behavior: smooth
}

I combined it, and this is the results -
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#toTop").hide();
// fade in & out
$(window).scroll(function () {
if ($(this).scrollTop() > 400) {
$('#toTop').fadeIn();
} else {
$('#toTop').fadeOut();
}
});
$('a[href*=#]').each(function() {
if (location.pathname.replace(/^\//,'') == this.pathname.replace(/^\//,'')
&& location.hostname == this.hostname
&& this.hash.replace(/#/,'') ) {
var $targetId = $(this.hash), $targetAnchor = $('[name=' + this.hash.slice(1) +']');
var $target = $targetId.length ? $targetId : $targetAnchor.length ? $targetAnchor : false;
if ($target) {
var targetOffset = $target.offset().top;
$(this).click(function() {
$('html, body').animate({scrollTop: targetOffset}, 400);
return false;
});
}
}
});
});
I tested it and it works fine. hope this will help someone :)
with this code, the id will not appear on the link
document.querySelectorAll('a[href^="#"]').forEach(anchor => {
anchor.addEventListener('click', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
document.querySelector(this.getAttribute('href')).scrollIntoView({
behavior: 'smooth'
});
});
});
$("#YOUR-BUTTON").on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#YOUR-TARGET").offset().top
}, 300);
});
If you download the jquery easing plugin (check it out),then you just have to add this to your main.js file:
$('a.smooth-scroll').on('click', function(event) {
var $anchor = $(this);
$('html, body').stop().animate({
scrollTop: $($anchor.attr('href')).offset().top + 20
}, 1500, 'easeInOutExpo');
event.preventDefault();
});
and also dont forget to add the smooth-scroll class to your a tags like this:
<li><a href="#about" class="smooth-scroll">About Us</a></li>
If you have a fixed navbar, you'll need something like this.
Taking from the best of the above answers and comments...
$(".bs-js-navbar-scrollspy li a[href^='#']").on('click', function(event) {
var target = this.hash;
event.preventDefault();
var navOffset = $('#navbar').height();
return $('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $(this.hash).offset().top - navOffset
}, 300, function() {
return window.history.pushState(null, null, target);
});
});
First, in order to prevent the "undefined" error, store the hash to a variable, target, before calling preventDefault(), and later reference that stored value instead, as mentioned by pupadupa.
Next. You cannot use window.location.hash = target because it sets the url and the location simultaneously rather than separately. You will end up having the location at the beginning of the element whose id matches the href... but covered by your fixed top navbar.
In order to get around this, you set your scrollTop value to the vertical scroll location value of the target minus the height of your fixed navbar. Directly targeting that value maintains smooth scrolling, instead of adding an adjustment afterwards, and getting unprofessional-looking jitters.
You will notice the url doesn't change. To set this, use return window.history.pushState(null, null, target); instead, to manually add the url to the history stack.
Done!
Other notes:
1) using the .on method is the latest (as of Jan 2015) jquery method that is better than .bind or .live, or even .click for reasons I'll leave to you to find out.
2) the navOffset value can be within the function or outside, but you will probably want it outside, as you may very well reference that vertical space for other functions / DOM manipulations. But I left it inside to make it neatly into one function.
