@Maccer Indeed, the actual documentation is in the header of the source-code file. I didn't want to bore people (that won't download it) with documentation in the project page, or in the blog. The info that appears in those 2 places is sort of a quick summary of what is the plugin capable of. I assumed that, if someone needs documentation, that person had to download the plugin first.
I think, that if you need some general (javascript/jquery) documentation, you should first check http://docs.jquery.com/ or some javascript tutorial, http://www.w3schools.com/js/. The piece of code I wrote, will scroll each time the page loads, so when you click a link, it won't scroll. But once it refreshes, it will look for the element. Now that I read your first post again, I think you meant it should scroll to the clicked link, not to the element targeted by that link. That is a different behavior from what LocalScroll or the piece of code I wrote, do. If you want to scroll to the clicked link, then do this: $(function(){ var target = location.hash && $('a[hash='+location.hash+']')[0];// look for the link if( target ) //if found $.scrollTo( target, { speed:1000 });//scroll to it }); Ariel Flesler PS: I'll try to add more examples in the source code for the next release (very soon).
