Negative Positioning with JQuery scrollTo / localScroll

Brian picture Brian · Feb 15, 2010 · Viewed 8.7k times · Source

I'm working on a project and using Ariel Flesler's jquery.scrollTo.js & jquery.localScroll.js ... I have local links that scroll to various divs on the page.

The trouble I have is that I have a fixed position navbar at the top of the page and ScrollTo is calculating the window position (correctly) without factoring that in. Below is the scrollTo.js file... can someone show me where and how I would insert code that would cause the Y-axis scroll position to be +[Y]px?

Look at http://demos.flesler.com/jquery/scrollTo/ . Specifically the offset option.

You can add using the offset with a hash, something like

$(...).scrollTo( '#myitem', speed, {offset: {top:20px, left:0} });
