I'm trying to grasp the basics of scrolling to a particular row in a TABLE.
Let's say you've got a TABLE, with a TBODY that has a fixed height and overflow: scroll. It appears I ought to be able to use core functions like offset() and scrollTop() to work out where a row is and scroll the TBODY to that position, but lots of trial and error has left me lost on why these things don't seem to work as I expect. The particular case I am looking at involves the user using arrow keys to navigate up and down. Its easy enough to use .next() to highlight the next row, but if a user keeps doing it, and the next row is below the viewable scroll region, I need to be able to slide up the display to show the highlighted row. This is an educational venture, not a practical one, I'd like to understand it myself, not find and use a plugin that does it already.
