If you check out this link, you will see that as you scroll down, the navigation has both affix and scrollspy functionality (From bootstrap 3)
http://codepen.io/datanity/pen/thnua
However, if you add white space at the top, the affix/scrollspy occurs in the wrong location. For example, this is with 800px of white space ontop.
http://codepen.io/datanity/pen/haKzg
Now of course here, you can adjust the affix/scrollspy code so that way it works with the 800px height ontop but, my problem is that I have no idea what space I will have on top. Sometimes it will be 2000px other times only 300px. Also, there is no way for me to know the id/class of the divs that appear ontop. Sometimes it will be 10 divs, sometimes 0, and they will always have different id/classes.
Is there a way that the affix and scrollspy can be triggered relative to the container it is in, and not a fixed px location from the top of the body?
Thanks for any help!

adding this to the top of the js fixed the issue. With this method, it does not matter how much white space or how many divs you have ontop. Your bootstrap scrollspy and affix will always be in the correct place!
$('#mynav').affix({
offset: {
top: $('#mynav').offset().top
, bottom: function () {
return (this.bottom = $('.bs-footer').outerHeight(true))
}
}
});
Add an ID to the section element (located at the top of the HTML page). I'm assuming this is the element that you're concerned about changing heights.
<section id="top-section" style="height:800px;">
</section>
Then add these lines to your JS file:
var $h = $("#top-section").height() + 280;
$("#mynav").attr("data-offset-top", $h);
This queries the rendered height of the section element, and then fixes your sidebar response height accordingly.
If you will also have an unknown amount of sections, then you should wrap the code that creates the sections in a div element. For instance, if you're using PHP to build the section area of your webpage, you should do something like this:
<div id="section-wrapper">
<?php echo "Whatever code you have here" ?>
</div>

I have created fiddle regarding the problem issue in link here
Header and footer are absolutely positioned and 100% width. The middle content consists of the dashboard table. Header consists of two images, which on clicked, will toggle the content.
When I click on slide-toggle-1, the content of headerbottombar is revealed.
But the middle content is hidden and overlapped.
How can I properly show content of middle content when the slide-button-1 and slide-button-2 is clicked.
I would like to thank for all suggestions and solutions. Solutions are acceptable either in css, jquery and javascript as long as feasible solutions are presented.
Why dont you try adding a class with margin-top to bring the div down as much as needed. Like this:
.top{
margin-top:100px;
}
Add this to you div with ".content" Like so:
<div class="content top">
Then just toggle it on the 2 clicks like:
$( ".content" ).toggleClass( "top" );
You can give additional styles, but this is the basic run down.
Update :
If you want a variable height header that's sticky to the top, you might have to use some javascript that dynamically adjusts the top margin of the content
var offset = document.getElementById("sticky-top-id").offsetHeight;
document.getElementById("content-id").style.marginTop = offset + 'px';

Old Answer :
There are many ways to achieve what you want. One is to change the position of header to relative (and remove the line breaks between header and content). If you use fixed or absolute position, the header will overlap with the body content. Whereas relative will push the content down as the header expands.
See this : https://jsfiddle.net/d0pyxdoj/3/
P.S. Header/Footer have position fixed in your code, not absolute
Please check the below example. Height identification using script we can inject the spacing.
Script:
function heightCalc(){
topHeight = $('.sticky-top').height();
$('.content').css({"margin-top": topHeight+"px"});
}

So I am redesigning my website: http://staging.slackrmedia.com/keenanpayne/, but I am coming across a small issue. I want each "pane" of the website to be the exact height of the window, no matter what the size. I also want the content therein to be exactly positioned in the center.
I am trying to accomplish this with jQuery at the moment:
function setSectionHeight() {
// Set section heights
windowHeightPadding = $(window).height() / 2;
firstSectionPadding = ($(window).height() - $('header').height()) / 2;
// Apply proper styling
$('section').css({"padding-top":windowHeightPadding,"padding-bottom":windowHeightPadding});
$('section.home').css({"padding-top": firstSectionPadding,"padding-bottom":windowHeightPadding});
}
setSectionHeight();
// Adjust section heights on window resize
$(window).on('resize', function(){
setSectionHeight();
});
So what this is doing is calculating the window height and dividing it by 2, so I can set the top and bottom padding on each section.
However, for the first section, to get the proper top and bottom padding, I need to subtract the height of the header, which is why I have a firstSectionPadding variable.
Then I just add the CSS to each section tag on my website, with separate styling for the home section tag.
This works pretty well, but as you can see when you visit my site, for some reason the heights are not correct.
Right now it looks like:
And it should look like:
I have absolutely no idea where this extra padding or space is coming from on the top. I think my equations are right, but perhaps there isn't something I'm taking into consideration?
This could be done with CSS. One div set to 100% height and width, with text-align:center; A second div within set to display:table and 100% height and width. Finally, a third div set to display:table-cell and vertical-align:center;
I'm trying to make a white div that extends from point (A) to point (B) on the page as shown in the photo. I want it so that when the page is extended the white takes up from pooint (A) all the way down to the end of browser so that no bg grey is shown underneath, even when page extended from below.
If you're talkinng about making the footer stick to the bottom of the page, Ryan Fait has a well known solution to this that you can find here:
http://ryanfait.com/resources/footer-stick-to-bottom-of-page/
Basically how it works is you position the footer absolutely and put it at the bottom, and add a "push" element to the bottom of the page to make sure that the footer doesn't go ontop of the content.
if youre looking for the sticky footer, kpsuperplane's answer wouuld be it
But seems to me that you want to have a DIV that is bellow your content, and stretching to the bottom of your browser?.
If this is the case check this example I made really quick where I'm stretching
the bottom div to fill that area which is the result of the browsers height - the top area. Gets executed every time you resize.
http://jsfiddle.net/99FpT/
js
$(function() {
function stretch(){
$(".area2").css({"height" : $(window).height() - $(".area1").height() });
}
$(window).on("resize", function(){
stretch();
});
stretch();
});
We needed a footer toolbar that stays at the bottom of the page, and sticks to some area when page is scrolled below that area.
We did achieved this using following script:
fixed div on bottom of page that stops in given place
But there is an issue on some page where the footer toolbar just disappears from the page, and then appear again when page is scrolled down further.
We found that this particular issue appears only on few page, when the page has some contents like Images, Video, or Ajax load other content where the content is filled in (or space is being filled) after page has loaded.
I have no clue how to fix this.
Here is the link from live site with problem page.

http://www.sandiegopchelp.com/notes-on-the-phablet-does-the-world-need-one/
It is usually more visible on blog posts with many comments. May be due to Disqus comments being loaded after the page has loaded completely.
How does this look?
http://jsfiddle.net/LukeGT/NxSc3/
$(window).scroll(function() {
$('#bar').css('position', 'static');
console.log($('#bar').position().top);
console.log($(window).scrollTop() + $(window).height());
if ($(window).scrollTop() + $(window).height() < $('#bar').position().top + $('#bar').height()) {
$('#bar').css('position', 'fixed');
}
});
setTimeout(function() {
$('#extra').show();
}, 1000);
I simulated the late loading of images by just showing a few extra divs after 1 second. I believe the problem arises from the fact that the height of the page changes after the code for the bar runs, so it's behaving as it should if the page were shorter (without the images/ajax etc).
What I do instead is position the bar in it's place at the bottom of the page each time the page is scrolled, calculate its height from the top there, and compare this with the scroll height. If we're too far up, it positions the bar in a fixed position at the base of the page, and otherwise leaves it alone. It works smoothly in Chrome, but I haven't tested elsewhere.
I guess this is a problem with the $(window).height() function. Check here. For all the dynamic contents like Images, Video or Ajax-loaded content the height is not added to the result of $(window).height() unless it is specified somewhere in the HTML or CSS (and from the referred link I see this happens only in Chrome. You might want to confirm on this though). To those dynamic contents you can either try adding the height attribute in html or height attribute in the corresponding style.
This is not the answer but i have found something while inspecting your website...
This is you actual HTML when its working fine as you want..
<div class="footer-toolbar-container" id="sticky_for_a_while" style="position: fixed; ">
but when it is not working, the Position attribute is changing from Fixed to Relative .
<div class="footer-toolbar-container" id="sticky_for_a_while" style="position: relative; ">
you can check you script for that or post you script here...
At initial state, your div is in position: relative so its offset is based on the container element, not on the total height of the page. The variable stickyOffset is set based on that relative offset, that is why it gets clip down sooner than expected while scrolling and also why it works in your JSFiddle as the container there is the page (Iframe) itself.
In your $(document).ready function, you'll need to add the offset of not only the footer but also the rest of the offset on top of the containing element so that the offset is based on the total page instead of the containing div.
Hope that helps.
By looking at your example on http://www.sandiegopchelp.com/services/cellphone-repair/htc/ using chrome, I can see that your footer disappears when it gets at the "related links" section. At this moment, you set the position of the footer to "relative" so it will replace it in the regular flow of the document and its position is actually below the "related links" section which is why it disappears off screen (below "related links").
but you calculated the position at which it should become relative on page load only where you should have recalculated it after having added the "related links" section as it changes the page height (I understood that you added afterward, am I right?).
Try adding a zero height div just above the position of the sticky div, which will remain at that position as the page resizes, then check that position as you scroll to determine the position where the sticky div should stop.
Finally got it fixed by two techniques, setting explicit height wherever possible using CSS and delaying jQuery function after all images are loaded. Refer this: Delay some jQuery function until all images are loaded completely
How can I set a "spacer" div to fill remaining height space between CONTENT and FOOTER, so footer will be always at the bottom of the page (not window as originally asked)?
Here is a example where footer is not at the window's bottom: http://template1.staceyapp.com/ (I'm using this template, so structure is the same).
I've tried many things like creating a div and setting it to be min-height, height 100% etc.
Probably Javascript is needed for that.
Are you able to help me setting jQuery to calculate it's height to fill the remaining space?
Is there a better solution?
Many thanks in advance,
Graxa
You can use CSS to position the footer at the bottom of the page.
by using position: fixed or if the footer is contained within another div (container)
set the position of that to relative and the position of your footer to absolute and then specify bottom: 0; for your footer to keep it locked to the bottom of the page.
It sounds like you want a sticky footer, which sits at the bottom of the browser window or at the bottom of the content, whichever happens to be longer.
If that's true, check out: http://ryanfait.com/sticky-footer/
Have you tried to set the footer just to position:fixed on the bottom?
