How to use scroll in an html div?-CodePudding

I have a command using divName.scroll in javascript and I want this command to scroll a scrollable html div but it is scrolling to the top and not to the desired element follows the code:

divName.scroll({
    top: elementName,
    behavior: "smooth"
})

Remembering that it is a scrollable div, inside a div with

display: block ;

inside a div

display: flex; 
position: fixed;

CodePudding user response：

Seems like you may have set your top to the name of another element, when it expects a number of pixels?

Try:

divName.scroll({
    top: 100,
    behavior: "smooth"
})

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/scroll seems to indicate a number should work.

If you have any content in Div you can use overflow to get scroll option.

`divName{display: flex; position: fixed;overflow: scroll;}`
