JavaScript inside the A HREF keeps jQuery function from working - javascript

I'm using a WordPress plugin to display a list of locations and a map of those locations.
I created the following function so that a link will scroll to a map when a link is clicked.
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$(".wpgmp_location_title h3 a").click(function() {
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#map-selected").offset().top
}, 2000);
});
});
However, the plugin automatically adds the following to each link:
href="javascript:open_current_location(marker2259map2)">
This link causes the map-marker to open, however, it appears to be preventing the jQuery function from scrolling the page to the top of the page.
Any ideas how to overcome this?

You need to cancel the default event inside your click handler:
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$(".wpgmp_location_title h3 a").click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#map-selected").offset().top
}, 2000);
});
});
Fiddle

An approach could be to override the open_current_location() function.
Take a look at this example, you could also execute the scrolling and then the original behaviour of open_current_location()

Disable Smooth Scrolling on Non-Anchor Hash Link?

I have some jquery for smooth scrolling:
$(document).on('click', 'a[href^="#"]', function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $($.attr(this, 'href')).offset().top
}, 1400);
});
Which works fine, except that I have some tabs on the page that use a hash link also. When you click each tab, the page scrolls to the top of the screen.
Is there a way to make this smooth scroll work, only when a specific anchor is added to the hash (like /#features) and not work when it is a hash only (like /#)
You can add a :not() selector to eliminate href="#" from triggering your click event.
$(document).on('click', 'a[href^="#"]:not([href=#])', function(event) {
console.log("Clicked");
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Hash Only
Anchor 1
Anchor 2

Scroll to element in Iframe not working on mobile Safari

I am having the following issue. I have an element located in an Iframe and when clicking on it, it should take me to the top of another element in this Iframe. This works in every browser and on Android but for some reason, it does not work on iPhone.
$('#button').on('click touchstart', function () {
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#top-text").offset().top
}, 1200);
})
Has anyone a solution?
This code is actually a cross-browser solution for making scroll and it works in safari/chrome/firefox
$('html,body').animate({})
So most likely you are not able to get an element, probably because you are running your code from iframe, you can try it like that
$('#button').on('click touchstart', function () {
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: 300,
}, 1200);
});
If this will work you can try to catch you element outside of iframe by using something like
$(parent.document.getElementById('top-text')).offset().top

jQuery not triggering event in hover state

I'm currently trying to make a navigational menu that on click scrolls to a div positioned lower on the page. Initially it worked but as I added a CSS transition to highlight the text, the jQuery will no longer trigger the scrolling to happen upon clicking it.
$("#about, #about:hover").click(function() {
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#box1").offset().top},
'slow');
});
The #about id is a part of the nav menu and will scroll to #box1 on click. I've tried adding the hover state to the selector, changing it to .trigger rather than .click but I'm not seeing a simple solution. I've recreated the event in Chrome, Safari, and using JSFiddle.
Is the JQuery conflicting with the transition, the hover state, or my code in general?
EDIT: It is working in the Fiddle example but the event still isn't happening when produced locally (everything is linked and correct with no errors in console).
Your JS code runs before the DOM is fully loaded.
Put the JS inside document.ready();:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#about, #about:hover").click(function () {
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#box1").offset().top
},
'slow');
});
$("#portfolio, #portfolio:hover").click(function () {
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#box2").offset().top
},
'slow');
});
$("#social, #social:hover").click(function () {
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#box3").offset().top
},
'slow');
});
$("#contact, #contact:hover").click(function () {
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#box4").offset().top
},
'slow');
});
});
See updated JSFiddle
It doesn't work if your jQuery link and/or functions link are in the header.
It works for me if the js links are towards the end of your html like before the closing body tag.

link to anchor on different page and scroolTo anchor using JQuery

How would I link to an anchor on another page but when the new page loads also scrollTo the anchor?
Below is the JQuery when my anchro link is on the same page I need to tweak it so that is also animate when the linked clicked
html:
<li>My Link</l1>
My JQuery:
$('.faq_section li a').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $( $(this).attr('href') ).offset().top - 20
}, 600);
});
Page2.php:
<div id="about-us"></div>
You can do with following method
By clicking u can send some condition in URL and check that in jquery
E.g. xyz.com?p=scroll
Then in jquery on document.ready function check if 'p=scroll' is present by using indexOf. If yes then run your animate code (note. Above jquery code needs to be in output page)
Or try this http://webdeveloperswall.com/javascript/scrolling-to-different-areas-on-same-page

getting a particular div in to view or scroll into view

I am trying to add a feature to my website in a way that when i click a link i want a particular div element to come in to view for a user.. ive tried the code
$(".testClick").live("click",function(e){
e.preventDefault();
// Call the scroll function
goToByScroll("indID13");
});
function goToByScroll(id){
// Reove "link" from the ID
id = id.replace("link", "");
// Scroll
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#"+id).offset().top},
'slow');
}
but this doesnt work... is it possible to achieve this feature with out any plugin by pure jquery itself.. or should i be using any plugin...
I will add a sample of what ive tried. the jsfiddle link http://jsfiddle.net/xFu3M/
and try this one toooo http://jsfiddle.net/xFu3M/6/ is this a bug..im trying to get div 1 in to view and its already in view,, so when i click the link it shows some other div
You just had a syntax error, change the .live to .on as the .live has depreciated in later versions of jQuery use this and it will work:
$(".testClick").on("click",function(e){...
See this edited fiddle jsFiddle
Try
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
$(".wrapper").css({"width" : $(window).width() , "height" : $(window).height()});
$(".testClick").on("click",function(e)
{
e.preventDefault();
goToByScroll("indID13");
});
});
function goToByScroll(id)
{
id = id.replace("link", "");
$('html,body').animate(
{
scrollTop: $("#"+id).offset().top
},'slow');
}
</script>
You click event code was not surrounded in document.ready.
Also use .on instead of .live because it already depreciated from now on.
