Scroll to the top of the page using JavaScript?

Question

How do I scroll to the top of the page using JavaScript? The scrollbar instantly jumping to the top of the page is desirable too as I\'m not looking to achieve smooth scroll

Answer 1

If you want to do smooth scrolling, please try this:

$("a").click(function() {
     $("html, body").animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, "slow");
     return false;
});

Another solution is JavaScript window.scrollTo method :

 window.scrollTo(x-value, y-value);

Parameters :

• x-value is the pixel along the horizontal axis.
• y-value is the pixel along the vertical axis.
