Smooth scrolling end positioning

Question
I have a nifty smooth animated scroll that goes up and down depending on what you click on the navigation (thanks to CSS-Tricks!). Now this is all working great but I have a nav that sticks to the top of the browser window and gets in the way of the section headers when it scrolls down. I can't for the life of me find anyone who may have had a similar issue with, what seems like, a very simple function.
Here's the JS that I have pasted into my HTML:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
function filterPath(string) {
return string
.replace(/^\//,'')
.replace(/(index|default).[a-zA-Z]{3,4}$/,'')
.replace(/\/$/,'');
}
var locationPath = filterPath(location.pathname);
var scrollElem = scrollableElement('html', 'body');
$('a[href*=#]').each(function() {
var thisPath = filterPath(this.pathname) || locationPath;
if ( locationPath == thisPath
&& (location.hostname == this.hostname || !this.hostname)
&& this.hash.replace(/#/,'') ) {
var $target = $(this.hash), target = this.hash;
if (target) {
var targetOffset = $target.offset().top;
$(this).click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$(scrollElem).animate({scrollTop: targetOffset}, 800, function() {
location.hash = target;
});
});
}
}
});
// use the first element that is "scrollable"
function scrollableElement(els) {
for (var i = 0, argLength = arguments.length; i <argLength; i++) {
var el = arguments[i],
$scrollElement = $(el);
if ($scrollElement.scrollTop()> 0) {
return el;
} else {
$scrollElement.scrollTop(1);
var isScrollable = $scrollElement.scrollTop()> 0;
$scrollElement.scrollTop(0);
if (isScrollable) {
return el;
}
}
}
return [];
}
});</script>
So I am in the process of learning JS and JQuery so I appreciate everyones patience and look forward to hearing your comments.
Many thanks in advance.
