Scroll to bottom of div?

Question

I am creating a chat using Ajax requests and I\'m trying to get messages div to scroll to the bottom without much luck.

I am wrapping everything in this div:

Answer 1

use :

var element= $('element');
var maxScrollTop = element[0].scrollHeight - element.outerHeight();
element.scrollTop(maxScrollTop);

or check scroll to bottom :

    var element = $(element);
    var maxScrollTop = element[0].scrollHeight - element.outerHeight();
    element.on('scroll', function() {
        if ( element.scrollTop() >= maxScrollTop ) {
            alert('scroll to bottom');
        }
    });
