I want to navigate to an anchor point on a new page, but I want the page to load at the top then immediately smooth scroll to the relevant anchor point. Can this be done?
I am a complete newbie with Javascript.
This is the js I currently use for smooth scrolling within the current page. I just apply a class of 'scroll' on the link.
Thanks very much!
<script>
$(function(){
$('.scroll').on('click',function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('html, body').animate({ scrollTop: $($(this).attr('href')).offset().top + 'px' }, 1000, 'swing');
});
});
</script>
As browsers automatically detect the hash and take you to that position...
It occurs to me that you could first reset the scroll position to 0 and then made the smooth scrolling.
Something like...
// to top right away
if ( window.location.hash ) scroll(0,0);
// void some browsers issue
setTimeout( function() { scroll(0,0); }, 1);
$(function() {
// your current click function
$('.scroll').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $($(this).attr('href')).offset().top + 'px'
}, 1000, 'swing');
});
// *only* if we have anchor on the url
if(window.location.hash) {
// smooth scroll to the anchor id
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $(window.location.hash).offset().top + 'px'
}, 1000, 'swing');
}
});
Edit: Move the scroll(0,0)outside $(function(){...}); to prevent flickering.
Also, Snippet with working example was added.
The effect is best appreciated when viewed in full screen
