Scroll to the top of the page using JavaScript?

If you don't need the change to animate then you don't need to use any special plugins - I'd just use the native JavaScript window.scrollTo() method -- passing in 0, 0 will scroll the page to the top left instantly.

window.scrollTo(xCoord, yCoord);

Parameters

• xCoord is the pixel along the horizontal axis.
• yCoord is the pixel along the vertical axis.

If you do want smooth scrolling, try something like this:

$("a[href='#top']").click(function() {
  $("html, body").animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, "slow");
  return false;
});

That will take any <a> tag whose href="#top" and make it smooth scroll to the top.
