Good day all. I am trying to add smooth scrolling on my website since is one page side. I watched the smooth scrolling videos,but my nav menu is not scrolling down slowly. What am I doing wrong here? Here is my code and thank you.
<ul class="main-nav">
<li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#about">About</a></li>
<li><a href="#contact">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
$("main-nav a").click(function() {
var navHeader = $(this).attr("href");
$("body").animate({scrollTop: $(navHeader).offset.top},"slow");
return false;
});
