Hi guys,

I'm currently workin on a project with a one page design that'll slide up and down between sections on an link...

currently i have it as

home
artist's materials
picture framing
gallery
contact us

or

<a href="javascript:void(0)" onClick="goToByScroll('contactus')">

hope fully you can see the code... then in a js file i've got

function goToByScroll(id){
    $('html,body').animate({scrollTop: $("#"+id).offset().top},'slow');

}

is this ok ??

or should this be done a different way ???

thanks in advance
