jquery - Run ScrollTop with offset of element by ID

Question

Trying to make the browser scroll to a specific ID with an added offset -

$('html, body').animate({scrollTop: $('#contact').offset().top}, 'slow');

What I need to do is to set the offset by -100px. How can I accomplish this?

Answer 1

No magic involved, just subtract from the offset top of the element

$('html, body').animate({scrollTop: $('#contact').offset().top -100 }, 'slow');
