Javascript Scroll to section

I want to scroll to a section on the page with vanilla JavaScript. Is the browser support good?
This is my code:
Document.getElementById("menu-item-1").on("click", function() {
Document.getElementById("services").scrollIntoView();
};

<a id="menu-item-1" href="#services">Click to Scroll to Services</a>
Then add services id where you want to scroll to.
<div id="services">Scroll Here</div>

Have You tried linking an id?
<h1 id="menu-item-1">Menu Item #1</h1>
<div>Go to Menu Item #1</div>
(The code above doesn't scroll because it is inside of a sandbox)

Closing a modal box reloads the page

Okay, so I have this weird issue on my website which I might have a hard time explaining. I am working on a website which only has one page(index.html) and no scroll. I have a navbar on the left with some menu items. So when clicked on a menu item a box appears with content. As it is a single page no scroll website, I have used IDs to call those boxes. Please see the code below:
<div class="nav-content">
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Gallery</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
when clicked on a menu item this kind of section appears on the screen.
<section class="content show background-overlay" id="about">
<div class="aboutUs">
<h1>About Us</h1>
<div class="overflow-scroll">
Lorem ipsumasfasfasfasfafafsafs
</div>
</div>
</section>
And the browser address bar shows something like this after clicking on the links:
file:///C:/Users/zak/Desktop/web/project1/index.html#home
or
file:///C:/Users/zak/Desktop/web/project1/index.html#gallery
Now I have used a modal box inside the gallery content section and after I close the modal box, the page does not stay at the gallery content section but reloads.
For example:
Modal box is here:
file:///C:/Users/zak/Desktop/web/project1/index.html#gallery
After modal is closed:
file:///C:/Users/zak/Desktop/web/project1/index.html (which is the home content section)
I want the gallery section to stay open even if I close the modal.
For the modal, I have not used any JS or jQuery. It is pure HTML and CSS. To get rid of the issue I have tried a simple jquery code:
$('#modal_close').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
This code just stops everything working.
Can anybody tell me how to stop the page from reloading after the modal box is closed?

You can try to use hide event to make refresh.
$('#modal_close').on('hide', function() {
window.location.reload();
});

jump to a section on different page is not working properly

I have navbar like this :
<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
<li>People</li>
<li>Main Page</li>
</ul>
but when I click on "People" link, it will not position correctly, because I am loading some charts on that page. I have many section with unique id and content is loaded from JavaScript (charts).
<section id="top_something">
<div class= "container">
<h2 class="blue-headings text-center"><b>Top People</b></h2>
<div id="div_something"></div>
</div>
<br>
</section>
The content of a div id="div_something" I am making in JavaScript ...
I have a 10 div's like this on that main_page with unique id. I can see that when I click on a a href="/main_page#top_something" on navbar it will paste me on that section , but as soon as it loads JavaScript it will move me upper
thanks in advance

If your main_page is a directory (which it probably is) then you need to simply include a slash before the anchor name.
People
If you have JavaScript injecting content after the page loads then you will be brought to the appropriate anchor but the page may move because the additional content added by JS will push the anchor down the page. You might consider repositioning the screen to the appropriate anchor using JS after its done injecting content.

jQuery Navigation fade,hide,show,bounce and timing

Here goes a really simple question!
I want to make a navigation menu and content with jQuery.
Here is my navigation links :
<div id="menu" class="menuBg">
<ul>
<li><a class="btn1" href="#">How To?</a></li>
<li><a class="btn2" href="#">Prizes?</a></li>
<li><a class="btn3" href="#">Rules</a></li>
<li><a class="btn4" href="#">Score</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Content :
<div id="content">
<div id="MainPage"><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="HowTo"><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="Prizes"><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="Rules"><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="Score"><!-- content goes here --></div>
</div>
Sample Navigation Code (includes first links code) :
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#baslaBtn').on('click', function(){
$('#HowTo').hide();
$('#Prizes').hide();
$('#Rules').hide();
$('#Score').hide();
$("#MainPage").fadeOut(500,"linear", function() {
$("#soru1").slideToggle(function() {
$("#soru1").effect("fadeIn",2000);
}).show(2000);
});
$('#MainPage').hide(1000);
});
});
...and i have 5 more on('click') function to navigate my menu to my contents. The problem is every time all of these contents loading without any effect. I want to load my content when load process is finished. The other problem is i'm putting hide() in every function to hide other objects.
Is there any way to make a function without a repeated code like :
$('#HowTo').hide();
$('#Prizes').hide();
$('#Rules').hide();
$('#Score').hide();
And i want to show my contents opening with simple fadeIn effect. If i click the other links all objects will hide them self or fadeOut, new content object's goes load and will open with fadeIn effect.
P.S : When i load my content to i can't use the content features like jquery.scroll plug in..All of them are disabling themself.
Really confused. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Assuming you're going to fade all divs inside #content and #soru1 is the div you want to show, you could simply use this:
$('#content div').fadeOut(function() {
$("#soru1").fadeIn(2000);
});
This will fade every div inside #content.
To fade only specific divs and not every div element inside #content, you can change your code into this, as example:
<div id="content">
<div id="MainPage" class='toFade'><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="HowTo"><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="Prizes class='toFade'"><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="Rules"><!-- content goes here --></div>
<div id="Score" class='toFade'><!-- content goes here --></div>
</div>
And do the following:
$('#content .toFade').fadeOut( function() {
/* ... */
});
Then, only the selected divs would fade.

jQuery page transitions

I have the following
<body>
<div class="sidebar"></div>
<div class="main">
<div class="page-1">
<p>Page 1</p>
<button id="btn-page2">Go to Page 2</button>
</div>
<!-- Other Pages -->
<div class="page-2">
<p>Page 2</p>
</div>
</div>
</body>
I am trying to follow the same principle of JQuery mobile by having all the pages in a single HTML document.
On page load, only the div with class page-1 should be displayed. However on clicking the button with id btn-page2, the second page should be displayed instead of the first one.
I figured I could add an .active-page class on the visible page with a display:block as attribute.
However, I also want to slide the second page from the bottom smoothly.
Any suggestions?

You can have a look at this blog.
http://mindfiremobile.wordpress.com/2013/07/16/smooth-page-transition-on-mobile-devices-within-single-html-page/
This demonstrates the way to add slide page effect using css3.
You can use the same concept to have the page slide form bottom to top.

you can create a css3 class which will slide any page from bottom and add it to the page div based on the button clicked
