How to keep a scrollbar always bottom?

Question

I have a scroll-bar in a div element and initially it's position is top. Whenever i add some text to the div element then the scroll-bar does not move. Is there any way, the scroll-bar of the div element's position will be always bottom and whenever I add some text to the div element, the scroll-bar also goes to the bottom automatically?

Here's my div element:

<div class='panel-Body scroll' id='messageBody'></div> 

And CSS class

.scroll {             height: 450px;             overflow: scroll;           } 

What i need is, initially the position of the scroll-bar should be bottom.

Also when i clicked a send message, I'm adding the message to the div elements 'messageBody'. On that time the the scroll-bar should be down again.

This is the current style of my scroll-bar

And I want it to be always

Thanks in advance.

var messageBody = document.querySelector('#messageBody'); messageBody.scrollTop = messageBody.scrollHeight - messageBody.clientHeight;
