Jumping to anchor within modal with a fixed header

Hi all,

I am having a bit of a problem.
I have a script that is for nested modals, that when a link is clicked it jumps straight to an anchor. It works fine.

However when styling, I would like to have a fixed header as the “.content” div scrolls to the anchor.

When “.content” has a height of 80vh it looks fine, but the script doesn’t scroll to the anchor.

When “.content” has a height of 80% the script works, but the fixed header doesn’t stay fixed and scrolls with the “.content”.

How can I have the script work, but keep a fixed header.

Thanks
