How to disable anchor jump when loading a page

Question

When I visit my_site.com/page.php#something, the scroll position is the one of the element carrying this particular hashtag rather than the top of the page.

Answer 1

Having this HTML code:

link

You can avoid scrolling to the div element and instead scrolling to the top of the window by using this code:

$("a").on("click", function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    window.scrollTo(0, 0);
});

EDIT:

You can try to add this:

var firstVisit = true;
$(window).scroll(function() {
    if (firstVisit) {
        window.scrollTo(0, 0);
        firstVisit = false;
    }
});
