Get correct HTML array number
I have a few HTML elements that are the same, just different text.
On click of view less I hope to have a console print out of the number (array object in the list) I clicked show less on.
However I get
[HTMLCollection(1)]
printed twice no matter what show less html section I click on.
Is there a reason for this? and how to fix it.
Objective
I want to get the current element array number so I can scroll to the top of the dynamic array number so I can have many HTML elements and the click scroll top event would only scroll to the top of its own section.

I mean, your logic is getting the same sections every time. It's finding the container in the sectorpage-strengths (by id so only one on the page), and then getting all the class name elements from those containers. That's going to be the same for every showless you click

@Taplar thanks, so as there are multiple html elements with the same id sectorpage-strengths how would i identify what one i clicked on ?

You'd fix your markup. Ids are expected to be unique by web standards. If you want to repeat an identifier, make it a class instead and use a contextual lookup

Possible duplicate of Does ID have to be unique in the whole page?

1
(grumbles something about it being 2018 ...) ok, in that case your primary recourse to working around their stupid non-standard markup would be to use an attribute selector to find the element, such as[id="sectorpage-strengths"]and you'd use that in a contextual lookup so you only find the one wrapper that is related to the show less you clicked, however they are related.

I mean, your logic is getting the same sections every time. It's finding the container in the sectorpage-strengths (by id so only one on the page), and then getting all the class name elements from those containers. That's going to be the same for every showless you click

@Taplar thanks, so as there are multiple html elements with the same id sectorpage-strengths how would i identify what one i clicked on ?

You'd fix your markup. Ids are expected to be unique by web standards. If you want to repeat an identifier, make it a class instead and use a contextual lookup

(grumbles something about it being 2018 ...) ok, in that case your primary recourse to working around their stupid non-standard markup would be to use an attribute selector to find the element, such as[id="sectorpage-strengths"]and you'd use that in a contextual lookup so you only find the one wrapper that is related to the show less you clicked, however they are related.
