Long ago I once experiment to do the very same thin in order to clear an
absolute positioned header at the top of the page. The bottom line was
it required JavaScript. The JavaScript got very complicated and results
was hardly satisfactory. Cross browser differences problem, trapping the
scroll via a link using a hash vs. just a page scroll, determining the
proper offset and then not triggering page scroll adjustment....it goes
on and on... There just is no really good way to accomplish what you
wish. The best solution is to adjust your php that outputs the db
results to make the anchor at the very top of the output and maybe tweak
your CSS to provide extra space to push the output into view.
A[name] { display: block; margin-bottom: 2em; }
<snipping the rest>

Take care,
