Question

I have a menu which I need to scroll back to top when links are clicked. I have this code.

$('a').click(function(){

$('.positionHelper').scrollTo( {top:'-800px', left:'0'}, 0 );

});

the code works when just the handler function is run in firebug console, but when I attach the click to a selector it does not work. The only exception is when I attached it to $(‘html’).click. I, fired

I tested this with many different selectors and none work.

If your html is generated dynically (after page load) you need to use the .live method. Your code would be:

$('a').live('click', function(){

$('.positionHelper').scrollTo( {top:'-800px', left:'0'}, 0 );

});
