I don't think you can do this with jQuery Mobile's silentScroll
, as it basically uses window.scrollTo, and this allows to scroll only within the current viewport (what you currently see on the screen).
Instead I would recommend to use iScroll's various API methods: scrollTo
, ScrollToElement
or Snap
, etc.
I tested the below in Android and it worked.
You'll of course need to adjust it to your application...
common\js\main.js:
var myScroll;
function wlCommonInit(){
myScroll = new IScroll('#wrapper');
}
common\index.html:
<body style="display: none;">
<div id="wrapper">
<div data-role="page" id="page">
<div data-role="content" id="content" style="padding: 15px">
<div id="firstDiv">
<input type="button" value="scroll to the other div" onclick="myScroll.scrollToElement('#secondDiv', '0s');"/>
</div>
<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
<div id="secondDiv">
hello
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
...
...
</body>
0s
means there will be no scroll effect; it will essentially 'jump' to the desired location.
