Having trouble with the read more link

I made the id for the articles vr-articles in article.html, I then entered it as #vr-articles in the read more links of index.html. Mine still goes to the top of the page instead of the top of the article.

Check for a possible misspelling in the id of the target element (or this href).

If you still have trouble, make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.

It works correctly for me. But — the "article.html" page is not very big, so if your window is tall enough to accommodate the entire page with no scrollbar, the entire page will be displayed. This is normal browser behavior.

Try making your browser window smaller to confirm that the location reference is being used.
