jQuery scrollTop not working in Chrome but working in Firefox

Question

I have used a scrollTop function in jQuery for navigating to top, but strangely 'the smooth animated scroll' stopped working in Safari and Chrome (scrolling without smooth animation) after I made some changes.

But it is still working smoothly in Firefox. What could be wrong?

Here is the jQuery function I used,

jQuery:

$('a#gotop').click(function() {     $("html").animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, "slow");     //alert('Animation complete.');     //return false; }); 

HTML

<a id="gotop" href="#">Go Top </a> 

CSS

#gotop {       cursor: pointer;       position: relative;       float: right;       right: 20px;       /*top:0px;*/ } 

Answer 1

Try using $("html,body").animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, "slow");

This works for me in chrome.
