javascript - How to go on a specific element on a page -

yes, there link "how go on specific element on page" followed, before mark duplicate, read this.

i tested every bit of code given on link , none of them worked.

i have search field gives user option search. if search button clicked element should scrolled to. logged in console element, retrieved , shown in console, of given functions in link not work. way, bootstrap panel filled accordions, maybe why problem exists, should send me accordion atleast.

//search button click $("#searchbutton").click(function() {     var searchinfo = document.getelementbyid("search");     console.log(searchinfo.value);     var playernamer = findplayerby(playerlst,searchinfo.value,null);     if (playernamer == false){         //do nothing, if search fails     }     else{         console.log(document.getelementbyid("id_"+playernamer.pos));         window.scroll(0,findpos(document.getelementbyid("id_"+playernamer.pos)));     } });  function findpos(obj) {     var curtop = 0;     if (obj.offsetparent) {         {             curtop += obj.offsettop;         } while (obj = obj.offsetparent);     return [curtop];     } } 

now can see on searchbutton click have few console.log-s. these things return right result, 1 of example functions page left in code not working.

i present console output image cause copying in opera console didn't work quite expected:

the example may bit misleading though, because used top element. have element in bottom can't seen on screen , there isn't scroll happening either (element id of 8).

change scroll scrolltop:

$(window).scrolltop(findpos(document.getelementbyid("id_"+playernamer.pos)));
