To add the window.scrollTo() JavaScript code by clicking on a button in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open your Webflow project in the Webflow Designer.

  2. Select the button element on which you want to trigger the scroll action.

  3. In the right-hand panel, under the "Element Settings" tab, click on the "+" icon next to "Interactions" to add a new interaction.

  4. In the interactions panel that opens, choose the "Click" trigger for the interaction.

  5. Click on the "+" icon next to "Animations" to add a new animation to the interaction.

  6. In the animation panel, click on the dropdown menu under "Select an element" and choose the element that you want to scroll to. If the desired element is not listed, you can use a custom class to target it.

  7. In the same animation panel, click on the "+" icon next to "Affect properties" to add a new property to animate.

  8. In the "Affect properties" panel, choose "Scroll" from the dropdown menu.

  9. Enter the value for the scroll position you want to animate to. Here, you can use the window.scrollTo() method to specify the coordinates.

  • For example, to scroll to the top of the page, you can use window.scrollTo(0, 0);.
  • To scroll to a specific element on the page, you can first assign an ID to that element and then use document.getElementById('elementId').scrollIntoView();. Replace 'elementId' with the actual ID of the element.
  1. Customize the animation duration, delay, and easing as needed.

  2. Finally, preview the interaction by clicking the "Preview" button at the top right corner of the Webflow Designer. Test the button click and observe the scrolling behavior.

By following these steps, you can easily add the window.scrollTo() JavaScript code to your Webflow project and trigger it by clicking on a button.
