Good news: with the help of the community (800 stars!) we just got the Chrome team to fix a 5 year old bug which will allow me to eliminate a huge block of workaround code: https://gist.github.com/galambalazs/6477177#file-smoothscroll-js-L107-L145

Also thanks to the Chromium team who were so fast to respond.

Hey, this works great! Just one small detail, this

animationTime: 400, // [px]

should be

animationTime: 400, // [ms]

Right? Sorry, SI units are the nº1 pet peeve of engineers! =P

@praveenkumarkansara This supports touchpads and smartphones in a sense that it detects them and leaves them alone. They provide continuous events so they don't need SmoothScroll to ease out the ticks (like a classic mouse wheel).

Hi,

Great plugin! I have one issue that when applied your plugin into website, I can't scroll by mouse. Here is my js

    $('a[href*=#]:not([href=#])').on('click', function() {
        if (location.pathname.replace(/^\//,'') == this.pathname.replace(/^\//,'') && location.hostname == this.hostname) {
            var target = $(this.hash);
            target = target.length ? target : $('[name=' + this.hash.slice(1) +']');
            if (target.length) {
                $('html,body').animate({
                    scrollTop: target.offset().top
                }, 1000);
                return false;
            }
        }
    });

This is the best smooth scroller i've found yet, and I would like to see it available on cdnjs if thats possible?

cdnjs/cdnjs#5217

Also, I'm not 100% savvy with js, how do I take advantage of changing the options?

Hi, great plugin. Here are couple of my request

  1. Update the version number whenever you update the script.
  2. Make a repository instead of gist. Cause gists don't give update notification.
  3. Minified version
  4. Can you make a jQuery based version? I guess that will be even smaller.

Thanks.

Please don't use this. I know a lot of work went into this script, but scrolljacking is a horrible web design malpractice and causes inusability on some devices. Just... don't.

@RROrg this code is mostly for Chrome which doesn't support smooth scrolling. It simply matches what other browsers (e.g. Firefox) are doing out of the box. Shouldn't cause usability issues.

But if you have a specific issue to report, please do.
