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

You dont need JQuery. Simply you can call the script

window.location = '#'

on click of the "Go to top" button

Sample demo:

PS: Don't use this approach, when you are using modern libraries like angularjs. That might broke the URL hashbang.
