smooth scrolling between pages

I am trying to add some smooth scrolling to my portfolio site, so that when you click on a project button it will load the new page and smooth scroll down to the project -http://www.mattdbryce.co.uk/. I've found this code - http://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/smooth-scrolling/ - however that only allows smooth scrolling for links on the same page. When i used this code, no matter which link you click on in the navigation, it would just smooth scroll down on the existing page.

I considered having one long page with lots of anchor tags but wouldnt this take forever to load?

Any ideas guys?

Many thanks,

Matt

In case you have a clean URL system and anchor links between pages look like this:

<a href="index#someId">someId</a>

You might want to take a look at the following code:

$(document).ready(function() {  
  $('a[href*=\\#]').on('click', function(e){
      e.preventDefault();
      var fullTargetLink = this.href;
      var targetLink = fullTargetLink.substr(0, fullTargetLink.indexOf('#'));
      var fullCurrentLink = window.location.href;
      if (fullCurrentLink.indexOf('#') > -1) {
          var currentLink = fullCurrentLink.substr(0, fullCurrentLink.indexOf('#'));
      }else{
          var currentLink = fullCurrentLink;    
      }
      if (targetLink !== currentLink){
          window.location.href = fullTargetLink;
      }else{
          $('html, body').animate({
              scrollTop : $(this.hash).offset().top
          }, 500);
      }
  })
});

What I think you need to do is when the new page loads find the distance it is from the top of the page then use this jquery:

$('body').animate({
    'scroll-top': distance from top
});

Okay, you can use the same logic given in the CSS Tricks website to smooth scroll. While loading the document, you can check if there's a # exists in the page and if it is the case, smooth scroll the page to the element's top.

$(window).on("load", function () {
    var urlHash = window.location.href.split("#")[1];
    if (urlHash.length > 0)
        $('html,body').animate({
            scrollTop: $('#' + urlHash).offset().top
        }, 4000);
});

Or,

$(document).ready(function(){
    var urlHash = window.location.href.split("#")[1];
    if (urlHash.length > 0)
        $('html,body').animate({
            scrollTop: $('#' + urlHash).offset().top
        }, 4000);
});
