Thank you for this code! I am looking to close a pop up with a menu inside of it upon clicking an anchor link. Do you have a code for that as well?

Hi,
Works!!! Thank you so much.
But now the anchor links opens too low on the page (originally under the dropdown menu). Can this be fixed? I would like to have the links open hoghe on the page. I tried it with offset settings but that kind of a mess.
