Jump anchor driving me NUTS!!

[gregpayette]

I don't know if I can be helped...

I'm using jump anchors (easy smooth plugin) for sections on my home page. They work great.

But when you go from an internal page back to a name anchor on the home page, it lands where it's supposed to, then "jumps" up a bit.

You'll see what I mean when you go here: http://www.gregpayette.com/email-writing-and-marketing

And then from the top nav, click "copywriting."

I've been trying to figure this out for two days. I've used firebug, gone through my widgets for broken code.

Help!!

This is default behaviour. It's loading the home page first (and starts showing it) before parsing the rest of the document, and only when the relevant ID gets added to the DOM does the browser move the viewport down to see that part.

Hi Gary. Thanks for the reply. The thing is, it lands on the exact location of the anchor first, then jumps up and away. So it's working on the first click...then moves away. If that makes sense?

The killer (for me) is I fixed it at one point. Did some things (don't ask) and back to square one.
