I have been working on the site https://hotel4meetings.firebaseapp.com/,
where clicking on small map expands a larger map below.
However, when you scroll below that large map and click on the button at the bottom to close the map, the content jumps to another position.
I wonder if it possible to minimise jumping of the content below the closing button?
My reasoning: The user is looking at the content below the closing button, so it is preferable not to move that content.
The site is Angular-based but the problem is not specific to Angular. The same functionality can be achieved e.g. with jQuery.
assuming that .map is your big map container and .close is the button that closes the map:
$('.close').click(function(){
var sctop = $(window).scrollTop();
var maptop = $('.map').offset().top;
dif = maptop - sctop;
if(dif <= 0)
$(window).scrollTop($(window).scrollTop()+dif-100);
$('.map').hide();
});
With animation:
$('.close').click(function(){
$('.map').slideUp(300);
var sctop = $(window).scrollTop() - $('.map').height();
$('html, body').animate({scrollTop : sctop}, 300);
});
Here is the Demo: https://jsfiddle.net/ym0ek6oq/1/
Another Demo: https://jsfiddle.net/ym0ek6oq/2/
It isn't that the content is jumping it's that when you hide the element the space it takes up closes.
You can try using
$("#someID").css("visibility", "hidden");
with
#someID {
display: block;
}
That should do what you are asking but it will leave a blank space within the page.
Maybe you could scroll the page back down when you close the map the same distance it takes up when visible to cancel the apparent jump of content. Not sure it'll give the desired effect though.
Hope this helps,

I replaced the scrolling animation of my one page website with another scrolling animation which changes the URLs when you use the topbar (it was build in foundation)
While the URLs now change when I click an item in the topbar all the other links or clickable elements on my page make it scroll back to the top of the page.
For example when I try to click the next/prev buttons of my slider it scrolls back to the top of the page as if I clicked on Home.
Can someone see whats wrong with the code for the animation?
$(document).ready(function () {
$('a[href^="#"]').click(function () {
var target = $(this.hash),
hash = this.hash;
if (target.length == 0) {
target = $('a[name="' + this.hash.substr(1) + '"]');
}
if (target.length == 0) {
target = $('html');
}
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: target.offset().top
}, 500, function () {
location.hash = hash;
});
return false;
});
});
PS: When I scroll manually the URLs don't change when I go down to the next page. If anyone has a fix for this I'll be happy to here from you! (I tried using history.js but that only seems to work if you have a server, which I don't)
//* EDIT *//
I just found out it's not all links that make it scroll to the top of the page, just the buttons of my orbit slider and the menu button when the topbar is collapsed
//EDIT 2//
The URL now changes when I scroll to the next page!
The only problem I am seeing right now is that the buttons of my orbit slider and the menu button of the collapsed topbar act the same as my home button (makes the page scroll all the way back to the top) for some reason.
So the last thing I need to do is get the buttons working again. Making the menu button expand the topbar and making the next and prev buttons of my slider work as normal
If you only want to change the hash depending on the scrollPosition you are half way there.
You'll need to bind some logic to the scroll event. Here is a fork of your Fiddle where the hash is changed on scroll.
When the user scrolls the page we iterate through all .page elements and compare their offset().top against $( document ).scrollTop().
We set the new hash to be the id of the last .page element that has a lower offset().top than $( document ).scrollTop() is.
(I also debounced the function so it doesn't fire constantly when scrolling - you could of course remove that part)
You should however consider that by changing the hash you will jump to the equivalent element. Here is a guide on how to suppress that behaviour.
EDIT:
Here is an updated Fiddle where I implemented the solution from above for suppressing forced scroll on hash change.
I input this code (which I pulled from this answer: Make a div appear when scrolling past a certain point of a page) to make a div appear when the user scrolls down on the page.
The problem is: The div appears as soon as the page loads, and disappears when the user scrolls, and then reappears when they scroll > 700.
How do I get the div to not show up at the beginning of the page load?
Thanks!
<script>
// Get the headers position from the top of the page, plus its own height
var startY = 700;
$(window).scroll(function(){
checkY();
});
function checkY(){
if( $(window).scrollTop() > startY ){
$('.scroll-up').slideDown();
}else{
$('.scroll-up').slideUp();
}
}
// Do this on load just in case the user starts half way down the page
checkY();
</script>
In your CSS set display:none property for the div you don't want to show on page load
Instead of slideUp() and slideDown()
you can use, fadeIn() and fadeOut() or slidetoggle();
I have a container (div) on the page. This container has a scrolling (provided by overflow:auto; height:400px).
I need no provide a URL, that will open a page so that the main page will not be scrolled, but the text in the container will be scrolled.
I tried www.mysite.com#position, but by this way the main page is scrolled too (and I need, that users will see the header on the top of the screen, and the "#position" position on the top of the container)
This is possible with javascript. And I will show a jQuery example here.
if (window.location.hash == '#position') {
$('#containerDiv').animate({
scrollTop: $("#actual_position").offset().top
}, 2000);
}
The actual_position should be the place where to scroll to. position should just be in the url and not on the page, to prevent the whole page from scrolling.
May you use the css-properties: position:fixed, top:..., left:... for your element that should stay at a certain place on your side, when an user scrolls.
Furthermore you can put all content that you do not want to be scrolled into a div and define the css-properties.
I hope this helps you a little bit.
Really it's an upgrading of Arjan answer (and now this really works).
As Arjan's suggestion the script will not work every time, but only by providing #scroll in the end of url (www.mysite.com#scroll). This script will scroll the container scroll bar to the #position element, and the all document will stay.
jQuery(window).load(function(){
container_top = jQuery('#container').offset().top;
element_top = jQuery('#position').offset().top;
element_relative_top = element_top -container_top;
if (window.location.hash == '#scroll') {
jQuery('#container').animate({
scrollTop: element_relative_top
}, 2000);
}
})
I'm been trying to get my head around issue and seem to cant find some help.

The experience is a bit jumpy and buggy now- but what i will like is
1) When you scroll down the page. I want the Sticky Nav to be (disable,dropped off, stop) at a specific location(chapter-3) on the page and the user should have the ability to keep scrolling down.
2) When the user is scrolling back up, the code will stick the nav back and carry it up until the nav reaches the original position at the top.
Below is a starting point.
3) Currently is kinda of doing that but there's some huge jump going on when scrolling back up
http://imakewebthings.com/jquery-waypoints/#doc-disable
using disable, destroy, enable option will be nice.
This is a original experience cleaned: http://fiddle.jshell.net/DQgkE/1/show/
Thanks for the help in Advance.
I'm not sure how this plugin you used work, but I have a solution I wrote a while back that I wrote in jquery. It has few variables at the top, the item you wanted sticky, the item where you want it to stop, and the class to add when it becomes sticky and padding at the top and bottom. I only modified the javascript portion in this fork.
EDIT
I went ahead and fixed the original code. Solution without waypoint plugin is in comments.
Here is the result:
http://fiddle.jshell.net/Taks7/show/
I would recommend to use jQuery (that was a surprise, right?! :P)
$(document).ready(function() { //when document is ready
var topDist = $("nav").position(); //save the position of your navbar !Don't create that variable inside the scroll function!
$(document).scroll(function () { //every time users scrolls the page
var scroll = $(this).scrollTop(); //get the distance of the current scroll from the top of the window
if (scroll > topDist.top - *distance_nav_from_top*) { //user goes to the trigger position
$('nav').css({position:"fixed", width: "100%", top:"*distance_nav_from_top*"}); //set the effect
} else { //window is on top position, reaches trigger position from bottom-to-top scrolling
$('nav').css({position:"static", width:"initial", top:"initial"}); //set them with the values you used before scrolling
}
});
});
I really hope I helped!
I have some menu items on the right hand side of my website that are: -
Basket Summary
Best Sellers
Quick Links
etc
I want the basket summary to follow down the page as the page is scrolled, I know how to this using position: fixed, but I need it to also move the other elements out of the way otherwise it will just overlap them.
I was looking at this: jsfiddle which would do the job and works but obviously thats only on button click, I would need to adapt this to scroll via jQuery.
I have read many tutorials for floated fixed divs but they are all for one div and don't have any other divs to interact with.
Any ideas if possible and/or how to do it?
Code from js fiddle as follows: -
$(function() {
$('.upButton').click(function(e){
var $parent = $('.highlight').closest('.box');
$parent.insertBefore($parent.prev());
});
$('.downButton').click(function(e){
var $parent = $('.highlight').closest('.box');
$parent.insertAfter($parent.next());
});
});
Is this what you're looking for?: http://jsfiddle.net/cmontgomery/YVh4q/
essentially, whenever the window scrolls check to see if your section is in the visible area and if not, adjust accordingly:
$(window).scroll(function () {
var mover = $("#sidebar .quick-links");
if($(window).scrollTop() === 0) {
//console.log("to top");
mover.prependTo("#sidebar");
} else if(!isFullyInViewableArea(mover)) {
var parent = mover.closest('.section');
if(isBelowViewableArea(mover)) {
//console.log("moving up");
parent.insertBefore(parent.prev());
} else {
//console.log("moving down");
parent.insertAfter(parent.next());
}
}
});
I must admit, this solution is not the best user experience, i.e. it jumps instead of scrolling smoothly. If it were me I would put the movable section as the last item in the right column and move that down the page with absolute positioning so it follows the top of the view-able area exactly.
Use this
Drag & Drop is best.
