Scroll to specific div on page load

Question

I'm trying to figure out how get the page automaticlly scroll to a specific div when the page has loaded. I have tried using the jQuery scroll function, but cant get it to work correctly. Any suggestions?

Following is what i have tried so far:

jQuery(function() { jQuery(window).scrollTop(jQuery('.container').offset().top); });

You can do this using the .animate() method:

$(document).ready(function () {     // Handler for .ready() called.     $('html, body').animate({         scrollTop: $('#what').offset().top     }, 'slow'); }); 

• This will smooth scroll to the div with ID what
