11,670 PointsAdding Smooth Anchor Scrolling
For anyone that's looking to add smooth anchor scrolling for nicer appearance:
JS -
$('a[href*=\\#]:not([href=\\#])').click(function() { //need to escape pound sign in script or you'll get an error
if (location.pathname.replace(/^\//,'') == this.pathname.replace(/^\//,'')
|| location.hostname == this.hostname)
{
var target = $(this.hash),
headerHeight = $("header").height() + 5; // Get fixed header height
target = target.length ? target : $('[name=' + this.hash.slice(1) +']');
if (target.length)
{
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: target.offset().top - headerHeight
}, 500);
return false;
}
}
});
adjust $("header") to whatever the tag, class, or id is for your header. also add data-offset to your scrollspy or active links won't fire correctly

435 PointsEdit: Mis-read smooth scroll as actual smooth scroll (on mouse). Anchor scrolling would be more fitting (As per the gist :P )

11,670 PointsThanks, I just updated it. We always call it smooth scroll at my work but I can see how that can be confusing.
