    The following should do it:

    $('#logbox').scrollTop($('#logbox').attr("scrollHeight"));
    

    There’s a scrollTop function in jquery, but no scrollHeight function. If you pass a value into scrollTop, it serves to set the scroll top offset, so you have to read the scrollHeight attribute of the relevant node using the attr function to achieve what you are trying to do.
