I am using a fixed navbar with bootstrap 4. When using fixed-top navbar, content below it is hidden by the navbar because its position is fixed. I had to give padding-top: 65px; on the body, to make the content appear below the navbar.
I have internal links so clicking on a navbar anchor positions the page on the section relative to it. However, because I used the padding-top trick, the position is 65px below the top of the section. Is there a way to solve it so that position returns to the top of the section?
You should not add from the first " fixed-nav" class. you can add this in scroll event of jquery.
$(window).on('scroll', function () {
var scrollTop = 20;
if ($(window).scrollTop() >= scrollTop) {
$('nav').addClass("fixed-nav");
}
if ($(window).scrollTop() < scrollTop) {
$('nav').removeClass('fixed-nav');
}
});
this add fixed-nav in user scroll down in your site.
On click of a link, I set the padding top of the body to 0, and on hash change event after the page positions on the section relative to the inline link, I set back the padding to 65.
$('.nav-link').click(function () {
$('body').css('padding-top', '0');
});
window.onhashchange = function () {
$('body').css('padding-top', '65px');
};
$(document).ready(function() {
var top_pad = $('.your_headerelem').height();
$('.first-emem-after-header').css({'padding-top':+top_pad+'px'});
$(window).resize(function(){
var top_pad = $('.your_headerelem').height();
$('.first-emem-after-header').css({'padding-top':top_pad+'px'});
}) ;
}) ;
This will make your first element after header, lie below header.
I'm currently looking into creating two separate logos located on the header nav section of this website.
The current navigation before scrolling along with logo is perfect to me. The fixed nav on scroll is also perfect apart from the logo will stay the same.
I have a second logo with the opposite colour to match the white background, the problem I face is what method to use when switching the image from the first to second.
My initial approach may be to use css but as far as things stand, I'm on the fence for how to deal with this, the text for the navigation styling has been fine, it's just any idea on how to switch the image to the second one that I plan on placing there.
If anyone has a rough idea to help me out, I'll highly appreciate that and take it on board.

Something like that http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onscroll.asp
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onscroll = function() {changeSource()};
function changeSource() {
if (document.body.scrollTop > 50 || document.documentElement.scrollTop > 50) {
$('.css_class_name').attr('src','new_image.png');
} esle{
$('.css_class_name').attr('src','old_image.png');
}
}
</script>
this is also at you general.js you can customize at this point customize it at line 210
customise the function //Sticky Menu
var sticky_menu = function(){
if( jQuery('.fly-header-site.fly-sticky-header-on').length > 0) {
var header_height = jQuery('.fly-header-site').outerHeight(),
sticky_open = header_height * 2;
jQuery(window).on('scroll', function () {
if (jQuery(window).scrollTop() > header_height + 5) {
jQuery('.fly-header-site').addClass('sticky-menu').css('top', -header_height);
} else {
jQuery('.fly-header-site').removeClass('sticky-menu').css('top', 0);
}
if (jQuery(window).scrollTop() > sticky_open) {

I am creating a chat using Ajax requests and I'm trying to get messages div to scroll to the bottom without much luck.
I am wrapping everything in this div:
#scroll {
height:400px;
overflow:scroll;
}
Is there a way to keep it scrolled to the bottom by default using JS?
Is there a way to keep it scrolled to the bottom after an ajax request?
Here's what I use on my site:
var objDiv = document.getElementById("your_div");
objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight;
This is much easier if you're using jQuery scrollTop:
$("#mydiv").scrollTop($("#mydiv")[0].scrollHeight);
Try the code below:
const scrollToBottom = (id) => {
const element = document.getElementById(id);
element.scrollTop = element.scrollHeight;
}
You can also use Jquery to make the scroll smooth:
const scrollSmoothlyToBottom = (id) => {
const element = $(`#${id}`);
element.animate({
scrollTop: element.prop("scrollHeight")
}, 500);
}
Here is the demo
Here's how it works:
Ref: scrollTop, scrollHeight, clientHeight
using jQuery animate:
$('#DebugContainer').stop().animate({
scrollTop: $('#DebugContainer')[0].scrollHeight
}, 800);
Newer method that works on all current browsers:
this.scrollIntoView(false);
var mydiv = $("#scroll");
mydiv.scrollTop(mydiv.prop("scrollHeight"));
Works from jQuery 1.6
https://api.jquery.com/scrollTop/
http://api.jquery.com/prop/
alternative solution
function scrollToBottom(element) {
element.scroll({ top: element.scrollHeight, behavior: 'smooth' });
}
smooth scroll with Javascript:
document.getElementById('messages').scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth', block: 'end' });
If you don't want to rely on scrollHeight, the following code helps:
$('#scroll').scrollTop(1000000);
Java Script:
document.getElementById('messages').scrollIntoView(false);
Scrolls to the last line of the content present.
My Scenario: I had an list of string, in which I had to append a string given by a user and scroll to the end of the list automatically. I had fixed height of the display of the list, after which it should overflow.
I tried #Jeremy Ruten's answer, it worked, but it was scrolling to the (n-1)th element. If anybody is facing this type of issue, you can use setTimeOut() method workaround. You need to modify the code to below:
setTimeout(() => {
var objDiv = document.getElementById('div_id');
objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight
}, 0)
Here is the StcakBlitz link I have created which shows the problem and its solution : https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-x9esw8
If your project targets modern browsers, you can now use CSS Scroll Snap to control the scrolling behavior, such as keeping any dynamically generated element at the bottom.
.wrapper > div {
background-color: white;
border-radius: 5px;
padding: 5px 10px;
text-align: center;
font-family: system-ui, sans-serif;
}
.wrapper {
display: flex;
padding: 5px;
background-color: #ccc;
border-radius: 5px;
flex-direction: column;
gap: 5px;
margin: 10px;
max-height: 150px;
/* Control snap from here */
overflow-y: auto;
overscroll-behavior-y: contain;
scroll-snap-type: y mandatory;
}
.wrapper > div:last-child {
scroll-snap-align: start;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div>01</div>
<div>02</div>
<div>03</div>
<div>04</div>
<div>05</div>
<div>06</div>
<div>07</div>
<div>08</div>
<div>09</div>
<div>10</div>
</div>
You can use the HTML DOM scrollIntoView Method like this:
var element = document.getElementById("scroll");
element.scrollIntoView();
Javascript or jquery:
var scroll = document.getElementById('messages');
scroll.scrollTop = scroll.scrollHeight;
scroll.animate({scrollTop: scroll.scrollHeight});
Css:
.messages
{
height: 100%;
overflow: auto;
}
Using jQuery, scrollTop is used to set the vertical position of scollbar for any given element. there is also a nice jquery scrollTo plugin used to scroll with animation and different options (demos)
var myDiv = $("#div_id").get(0);
myDiv.scrollTop = myDiv.scrollHeight;
if you want to use jQuery's animate method to add animation while scrolling down, check the following snippet:
var myDiv = $("#div_id").get(0);
myDiv.animate({
scrollTop: myDiv.scrollHeight
}, 500);
I have encountered the same problem, but with an additional constraint: I had no control over the code that appended new elements to the scroll container. None of the examples I found here allowed me to do just that. Here is the solution I ended up with .
It uses Mutation Observers (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MutationObserver) which makes it usable only on modern browsers (though polyfills exist)
So basically the code does just that :
var scrollContainer = document.getElementById("myId");
// Define the Mutation Observer
var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {
// Compute sum of the heights of added Nodes
var newNodesHeight = mutations.reduce(function(sum, mutation) {
return sum + [].slice.call(mutation.addedNodes)
.map(function (node) { return node.scrollHeight || 0; })
.reduce(function(sum, height) {return sum + height});
}, 0);
// Scroll to bottom if it was already scrolled to bottom
if (scrollContainer.clientHeight + scrollContainer.scrollTop + newNodesHeight + 10 >= scrollContainer.scrollHeight) {
scrollContainer.scrollTop = scrollContainer.scrollHeight;
}
});
// Observe the DOM Element
observer.observe(scrollContainer, {childList: true});
I made a fiddle to demonstrate the concept :
https://jsfiddle.net/j17r4bnk/
Found this really helpful, thank you.
For the Angular 1.X folks out there:
angular.module('myApp').controller('myController', ['$scope', '$document',
function($scope, $document) {
var overflowScrollElement = $document[0].getElementById('your_overflow_scroll_div');
overflowScrollElement[0].scrollTop = overflowScrollElement[0].scrollHeight;
}
]);
Just because the wrapping in jQuery elements versus HTML DOM elements gets a little confusing with angular.
Also for a chat application, I found making this assignment after your chats were loaded to be useful, you also might need to slap on short timeout as well.
Like you, I'm building a chat app and want the most recent message to scroll into view. This ultimately worked well for me:
//get the div that contains all the messages
let div = document.getElementById('message-container');
//make the last element (a message) to scroll into view, smoothly!
div.lastElementChild.scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth' });
small addendum: scrolls only, if last line is already visible. if scrolled a tiny bit, leaves the content where it is (attention: not tested with different font sizes. this may need some adjustments inside ">= comparison"):
var objDiv = document.getElementById(id);
var doScroll=objDiv.scrollTop>=(objDiv.scrollHeight-objDiv.clientHeight);
// add new content to div
$('#' + id ).append("new line at end<br>"); // this is jquery!
// doScroll is true, if we the bottom line is already visible
if( doScroll) objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight;
Just as a bonus snippet. I'm using angular and was trying to scroll a message thread to the bottom when a user selected different conversations with users. In order to make sure that the scroll works after the new data had been loaded into the div with the ng-repeat for messages, just wrap the scroll snippet in a timeout.
$timeout(function(){
var messageThread = document.getElementById('message-thread-div-id');
messageThread.scrollTop = messageThread.scrollHeight;
},0)
That will make sure that the scroll event is fired after the data has been inserted into the DOM.
This will let you scroll all the way down regards the document height
$('html, body').animate({scrollTop:$(document).height()}, 1000);
You can also, using jQuery, attach an animation to html,body of the document via:
$("html,body").animate({scrollTop:$("#div-id")[0].offsetTop}, 1000);
which will result in a smooth scroll to the top of the div with id "div-id".
Scroll to the last element inside the div:
myDiv.scrollTop = myDiv.lastChild.offsetTop
You can use the Element.scrollTo() method.
It can be animated using the built-in browser/OS animation, so it's super smooth.
function scrollToBottom() {
const scrollContainer = document.getElementById('container');
scrollContainer.scrollTo({
top: scrollContainer.scrollHeight,
left: 0,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
}
// initialize dummy content
const scrollContainer = document.getElementById('container');
const numCards = 100;
let contentInnerHtml = '';
for (let i=0; i<numCards; i++) {
contentInnerHtml += `<div class="card mb-2"><div class="card-body">Card ${i + 1}</div></div>`;
}
scrollContainer.innerHTML = contentInnerHtml;
.overflow-y-scroll {
overflow-y: scroll;
}
<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap#4.5.3/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<div class="d-flex flex-column vh-100">
<div id="container" class="overflow-y-scroll flex-grow-1"></div>
<div>
<button class="btn btn-primary" onclick="scrollToBottom()">Scroll to bottom</button>
</div>
</div>
Css only:
.scroll-container {
overflow-anchor: none;
}
Makes it so the scroll bar doesn't stay anchored to the top when a child element is added. For example, when new message is added at the bottom of chat, scroll chat to new message.
Why not use simple CSS to do this?
The trick is to use display: flex; and flex-direction: column-reverse;
Here is a working example. https://codepen.io/jimbol/pen/YVJzBg
A very simple method to this is to set the scroll to to the height of the div.
var myDiv = document.getElementById("myDiv");
window.scrollTo(0, myDiv.innerHeight);
On my Angular 6 application I just did this:
postMessage() {
// post functions here
let history = document.getElementById('history')
let interval
interval = setInterval(function() {
history.scrollTop = history.scrollHeight
clearInterval(interval)
}, 1)
}
The clearInterval(interval) function will stop the timer to allow manual scroll top / bottom.
I know this is an old question, but none of these solutions worked out for me. I ended up using offset().top to get the desired results. Here's what I used to gently scroll the screen down to the last message in my chat application:
$("#html, body").stop().animate({
scrollTop: $("#last-message").offset().top
}, 2000);
I hope this helps someone else.
I use the difference between the Y coordinate of the first item div and the Y coordinate of the selected item div. Here is the JavaScript/JQuery code and the html:
function scrollTo(event){
// In my proof of concept, I had a few <button>s with value
// attributes containing strings with id selector expressions
// like "#item1".
let selectItem = $($(event.target).attr('value'));
let selectedDivTop = selectItem.offset().top;
let scrollingDiv = selectItem.parent();
let firstItem = scrollingDiv.children('div').first();
let firstItemTop = firstItem.offset().top;
let newScrollValue = selectedDivTop - firstItemTop;
scrollingDiv.scrollTop(newScrollValue);
}
<div id="scrolling" style="height: 2rem; overflow-y: scroll">
<div id="item1">One</div>
<div id="item2">Two</div>
<div id="item3">Three</div>
<div id="item4">Four</div>
<div id="item5">Five</div>
</div>
I'm adding a Chatango HTML5 chat box to my website, but when users scroll up or down in the chat box, it also scrolls up or down the rest of the page. I've been experimenting with different codes I've found on this site, but so far nothing has worked.
I thought I found a solution here: How to disable scrolling in outer elements? and applied it to my chatroom. It works exactly how I want it to on this codepen editor: http://codepen.io/EagleJow/pen/QbOBJV
But using the same code in JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/4bm6ou90/1/ (or on my actual website) does not prevent the rest of the page from scrolling. I've tested it in both Firefox and Chrome with the same results.
Here's the javascript:
var panel = $(".panel");
var doc = $(document);
var currentScroll;
function resetScroll(){
doc.scrollTop(currentScroll);
}
function stopDocScroll(){
currentScroll = doc.scrollTop();
doc.on('scroll', resetScroll);
}
function releaseDocScroll(){
doc.off('scroll', resetScroll);
}
panel.on('mouseenter', function(){
stopDocScroll();
})
panel.on('mouseleave', function(){
releaseDocScroll();
})
Any ideas?
It didn't work on JSFiddle because I didn't have jQuery set on the side menu and it didn't work on my website because the '$' symbol in the javascript conflicted with that same symbol in the jQuery (or something like that).
Here's the JSFiddle with better code and set to load jQuery: https://jsfiddle.net/4bm6ou90/7/
The Javascript:
$.noConflict();
jQuery( document ).ready(function( $ ) {
$(".panel").on("mouseenter", function(){
$(document).on("scroll", function(){
$(this).scrollTop(0);
});
});
$(".panel").on("mouseleave", function(){
$(document).off("scroll");
});
});
Also gotta have that jQuery CDN in the html head section.
I'm using <a href> element along with :target css selector to show a <div> which by default is set to display:none. Problem is, that when I click on the link to show that <div>, it is automatically scrolling down my site towards that <div>.
Is there a way to stop the screen movement?
Unfortunately I am not yet proficient in anything besides CSS and HTML.
You can use event.preventDefault() to avoid this. Something like this:
$('a.yourclass').click(function(e)
{
//your code
e.preventDefault();
});
OR:
link
in the link enter:
Link here
You'll need JS anyway:
// (in jQuery)
$el.on('click', function(e) {
// find current scroll position
var pos = document.body.scrollTop || document.documentElement.scrollTop;
// let normal action propagate etc
// in the next available frame (async, hence setTimeout), reset scroll posiion
setTimeout(function() {
window.scrollTo(0, pos);
}, 1);
})
I don't know if this will flicker the screen. It might. It's a horrible hack either way.
In my Chrome, there's no flicker: http://jsfiddle.net/rudiedirkx/LEwNd/1/show/
There are two ways to tell the browser we don't want it to act:
The main way is to use the event object. There's a method
event.preventDefault().
If the handler is assigned using on (not by
addEventListener), then we can just return false from it.
Example:
Click here
or
here
This is a bit of a hack but you could use a basic css work around:
CSS only Example
#div1 {
height: 0;
overflow:hidden;
}
#div1:target {
height: auto;
margin-top: -110px;
padding-top: 110px;
}
#div2 {
background:red;
}
Click to show
<div id="div1">
<div id="div2">Content</div>
</div>
If you need it to be a little more flexible you can add some js...
More Flexible Example with JS
$('a').click(function () {
$('#div1').css({
'margin-top': 0 - $('#div1').position().top + $(window).scrollTop(),
'padding-top': $('#div1').position().top - $(window).scrollTop()
});
});
Basically you're pulling the top of div1 up with the negative margin and then pushing div2 back down with the padding, so that the top of div1 rests at the top of the window... Like I said its a hack but it does the trick.
Those links are anchor-links and by default made for those jumps :) You could use JS to prevent the default behaviour in some way. For example using jQuery:
$('a').click(function(e){e.preventDefault();});
or by default add return false; to the links
Avoid using :target all together and just use onclick event.
function myFunction()
{
document.getElementById('hiddenDiv').style.display = 'block';
return false;
}
