Take the 2-minute tour ×  If I have a structure like:  <div
id="listofstuff"> <div class="anitem">    <span
class="itemname">Item1</span>    <span
class="itemdescruption">AboutItem1</span> <div class="anitem">
<span class="itemname">Item2</span>    <span
class="itemdescruption">AboutItem2</span> <div class="anitem">
<span class="itemname">Item3</span>    <span
class="itemdescruption">AboutItem3</span>  Say I continue this
pattern until item5... and I wanted to make it so that when the
page loads, it would search for the div with itemname "Item5",
and scroll to it so that it is visible. Assume that the
listofstuffdiv is sized small such that only 3 anitems are shown
at any given time, but since overflow:auto exists, user can
scroll.  I want to make it so that jquery can scroll to the item
it found so it is visible without the user having to scroll down
to item5;.  share|improve this question FYI you have loose </h3>
