Bootstrap Scrollspy
The Scrollspy plugin is used to automatically update links in a navigation list based on scroll position.

Smooth scrolling
For Smoot scrolling add the javascript in the above example.
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('body').scrollspy({target: ".navbar", offset: 50});
$("#myNavbar a").on('click', function(event) {
if (this.hash !== "") {
event.preventDefault();
var hash = this.hash;
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $(hash).offset().top
}, 800, function(){
window.location.hash = hash;
});
}
});
});
</script>
