jQuery Scroll to Div

February 11, 2023 by Tarik

It is often required to move both body and html objects together.

$('html,body').animate({
   scrollTop: $("#divToBeScrolledTo").offset().top
});

ShiftyThomas is right:

$("#divToBeScrolledTo").offset().top + 10 // +10 (pixels) reduces the margin.

So to increase the margin use:

$("#divToBeScrolledTo").offset().top - 10 // -10 (pixels) would increase the margin between the top of your window and your element.
