scroll with scripty2

Question

how can you scroll with scripty2??

document.body.scrollTo(300, {
    transition: 'easeInOutQuad',
    duration: 0.5
});

have also tried with window.scrollTo()

EDIT: this doesnt work either

$(document.body).scrollTo(300, {
    transition: 'easeInOutQuad',
    duration: 0.5
});

but in some other code this works fine

this.loader.morph('opacity:1; filter:aplha(opacity=100)', {
    transition: 'easeInOutQuad',
    duration: 0.5
});

Googling `scripty2 scroll` gives me this: http://scripty2.com/doc/scripty2%20fx/element.html#scrollto-instance_method — Pekka, May 08 '11 at 10:02
Ah. You can't run scripty functions on DOM elements - you need to turn them into Scripty elements first. See below. — Pekka, May 08 '11 at 10:57

Doesn't look like it - scripty is fairly new, and I see very few questions (and answers) around. Is there a specific reason why you want to use it over jQuery? As far as I can judge, jQuery has become top dog among JavaScript frameworks. — Pekka, May 08 '11 at 19:36
has jQuery good smooth equations to animate elements? I thought scripty2 was quite known? — clarkk, May 08 '11 at 19:40
I'm fairly sure jQuery has what you need. See http://api.jquery.com/animate/ and http://gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing/ — Pekka, May 08 '11 at 19:41

document.body is not automatically a scripty element. You need to either turn it into one, IIRC like so:

$(document.body).scrollTo(.......);

or use Element.scrollTo:

Element.scrollTo(document.body, .....);

but isnt $() only to transform element ids to an element object? – clarkk May 08 '11 at 11:05
@clarkk no, it should be possible to transform a DOM node as well: http://api.prototypejs.org/dom/dollar/ – Pekka May 08 '11 at 11:09
