Error jQuery scrollTop not working in Chrome but working in Firefox

0 votes

I have used a scrollTop function in jQuery for navigating to top, but strangely 'the smooth animated scroll' stopped working in Safari and Chrome (scrolling without smooth animation) after I made some changes.

But it is still working smoothly in Firefox. What could be wrong?

Here is the jQuery function I used,

jQuery:

$('a#gotop').click(function() {
    $("html").animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, "slow");
    //alert('Animation complete.');
    //return false;
});

HTML

<a id="gotop" href="#">Go Top </a>

CSS

#gotop {
      cursor: pointer;
      position: relative;
      float: right;
      right: 20px;
      /*top:0px;*/
}

Hello @kartik,

If your CSS html element has the following overflow markup, scrollTop will not function.

html {
    overflow-x: hidden;
    overflow-y: hidden;
}

To allow scrollTop to scroll, modify your markup remove overflow markup from the html element and append to a body element.

body { 
    overflow-x: hidden;
    overflow-y: hidden;
}

Hope this work!!
