much simpler      selector for element   get 0  scrollIntoView      if more than one item returns in the selector  the get 0  will get only the first item

I couldn t add a comment to Abhijit Rao s answer above  so I am submitting this as an additional answer   I needed to have the table column scroll into view on a wide table  so I added the scroll left features into the function  As someone mentioned  it jumps when it scrolls  but it worked for my purposes   function scrollIntoView element  container      var containerTop     container  scrollTop      var containerLeft     container  scrollLeft      var containerBottom   containerTop     container  height      var containerRight   containerLeft     container  width       var elemTop   element offsetTop    var elemLeft   element offsetLeft    var elemBottom   elemTop     element  height      var elemRight   elemLeft     element  width       if  elemTop  lt  containerTop          container  scrollTop elemTop       else if  elemBottom  gt  containerBottom          container  scrollTop elemBottom -   container  height            if elemLeft  lt  containerLeft          container  scrollLeft elemLeft       else if elemRight  gt  containerRight          container  scrollLeft elemRight -   container  width

Plugin that scrolls  with animation  only when required  I ve written a jQuery plugin that does exactly what it says on the tin  and also exactly what you require   The good thing is that it will only scroll container when element is actually off  Otherwise no scrolling will be performed   It works as easy as this      table tr last   scrollintoview      It automatically finds closest scrollable ancestor that has excess content and is showing scrollbars  So if there s another ancestor with overflow auto but is not scrollable will be skipped  This way you don t need to provide scrollable element because sometimes you don t even know which one is scrollable  I m using this plugin in my Sharepoint site where content master is developer independent so it s beyond my control - HTML may change when site is operational so can scrollable containers

I found a case  overflow div   table   tr   td  in which scrolling to the relative position of the tr does not work  Instead  I had to scroll the overflow container  div  using scrollTop to  lt tr gt  offset   top -  lt table gt  offset   top  Eg       container   scrollTop      tr   offset   top -     td   offset   top

This following works better if you need to scroll to an arbitrary item in the list  rather than always to the bottom    function scrollIntoView element  container      var containerTop     container  scrollTop       var containerBottom   containerTop     container  height       var elemTop   element offsetTop    var elemBottom   elemTop     element  height       if  elemTop  lt  containerTop          container  scrollTop elemTop       else if  elemBottom  gt  containerBottom          container  scrollTop elemBottom -   container  height
