You may want to add offsetTop and scrollTop value in case You are animating not the whole page   but rather some nested content   e g    var itemTop      letter name    id       offset   top  var offsetTop    someWrapper offset   top  var scrollTop    someWrapper scrollTop    var y   scrollTop   letterTop - offsetTop  this manage list wrap animate     scrollTop  y    1000

function scroll to anchor anchor id       var tag         anchor id             html body   animate  scrollTop  tag offset   top   slow

User · Answer

You should also consider that the target has a padding and thus use position instead of offset  You can also account for a potential nav bar you don t want to be overlapping the target   const  navbar       navbar        a href         on  click   function e        e preventDefault         const scrollTop               this  attr  href    position   top -          navbar outerHeight            html  body   animate   scrollTop

Here is the solution that worked for me  This is a generic function which works for all of the a tags referring to a named a     a href       on  click   function event         event preventDefault         var name     this  attr  href         var target      a name      name substring 1                   html body   animate   scrollTop    target  offset   top     slow           Note 1  Make sure that you use double quotes   in your html  If you use single quotes  change the above part of the code to var target      a name      name substring 1            Note 2  In some cases  especially when you use the sticky bar from the bootstrap  the named a will hide beneath the navigation bar  In those cases  or any similar case   you can reduce the number of the pixels from your scroll to achieve the optimal location  For example     html body   animate   scrollTop    target  offset   top - 15     slow    will take you to the target with 15 pixels left on the top

My approach with jQuery to just make all of the embedded anchor links slide instead of jump instantly  It s really similar to the answer by Santi Nunez but it s more reliable   Support   Multi-framework environment  Before the page has finished loading     lt a href   myid  gt Go to lt  a gt   lt div id  myid  gt  lt  div gt       Slow scroll with anchors  function           document  on  click    a href       function e           e preventDefault            var id     this  attr  href               html body   animate  scrollTop    id  offset   top   500              jQuery

Assuming that your href attribute is linking to a div with the tag id with the same name  as usual   you can use this code   HTML   lt a href   goto  class  sliding-link  gt Link to div lt  a gt    lt div id  goto  gt I m the div lt  div gt    JAVASCRIPT -  Jquery       sliding-link   click function e        e preventDefault        var aid     this  attr  href           html body   animate  scrollTop    aid  offset   top   slow
