Discussion on: Pure CSS Smooth-Scroll "Back to Top"

I've just been able to test on Win10 and it's working (testing my CodePen demo, no changes) so I'm sorry but I'm not sure what to suggest!

I probably shouldn't have used an emoji - the Mac version of the "top" emoji is more minimal but I see the Win is blocky :) I will add a note to update it to perhaps an SVG for more consistent results, thanks for the callout!

CodePen shouldn't be explicitly getting in the way of rendering. The only time I've occasionally run into issues is if I keep the "Normalize" CSS reset which is a bit heavy handed for modern browsers. I just removed it from the Pen juuuuust in case it makes a difference! If not, I'm sorry but I'm not sure what else other than something unique to your system. Good luck with your web dev journey!

Ok, thanks!
I retested on the MDN site after pressing Submit and it WAS working (I must have not tested correctly), but still NOT working on the Codepen (which I reloaded).
Oh, wait....(breaking news sound effect)...I just found (via MDN's super documentation) a setting in my Win10 setup re: showing animations...and it was turned OFF! Activating it made the smooth scroll work on your Codepen! Hhaaa!
Well...isn't that interesting and educational! LOOL! (mumbles something inaudible about Windows...)
Sorry to have bothered you with this...I had a feeling it was something higher up in the programming food chain!

Now I can continue going through your interesting articles on your site! :-) ^_^

Glad you got it worked out!
