I am trying to make nice parallax website, but this is my first time when I am using jQuery, however I have the following problem:
HTML:
<div class="section4"><h1 class="text-center">Online Marketing</h1></div>
<div class="section4"><p style="text-align:justify">SOME TEXT IS HERE BUT IT DOES NOT IMPORTANT</p></div>
CSS:
.section4 {
margin-bottom: 20px;
position: relative;
opacity: 0;
transform: translateX(-40px);
}
.is-showing{
opacity: 1;
transform: translateX(0px);
transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out;
}
.is-hide {
opacity: 0;
position: relative;
}
JS:
var wScroll = $(this).scrollTop();
if($(window).scrollTop() > 800){
if (wScroll > $('.section4').offset().top - ($(window).height() / 2.2)) {
$('.section4').each(function(i){
setTimeout(function(){
$('.section4').eq(i).addClass('is-showing');
}, 250 * (i+1));
})
}
}
So when I am scrolling down it is work great. It fades in properly, but now I want, when user scroll up, to it disappears. I tried with:
JS :
else {
$('.section4').eq().addClass('is-hide');
})
//$('section4').fadeOut("slow");
}
/*if (wScroll < $('.section4').offset().top + ($(window).height() - 500)) {
$('.section4').addClass('is-hide');
}*/
And lot of simular example, but now I don't have idea how to fix it, so if someone can give me advice or some solution I will appreciate it.
If I wanted to detect scroll direction,, I would do the following:
var lastScrollTop = 0;
var isScrollingDown = false;
$(window).scroll(function (event) {
var currentScrollTop = $(window).scrollTop();
if (lastScrollTop > currentScrollTop ) {
isScrollingDown = false;
} else {
isScrollingDown = true;
}
// Do something
});
You can use this logic within your code to do as required.

It is great lightweight library that uses animate.css effects on scrolling.

I need to figure out why this jquery isn't working...
I want to make the .navigationfx drop down (top = 0px) when its scrolltop() reaches the first section (should I add a class or id?). Accordingly, I want to make it move up (top = -30px) when it scrolls back up past it.
$(function(){
//last scroll will always save the current scroll position value
var CurrentScroll = 0;
$(window).scroll(function(event){
var NextScroll = $(this).scrollTop();
if (NextScroll > CurrentScroll){
//codes related to down-ward scrolling here
if ($(window).scrollTop() > $('section').scrollTop())
{
$('navigationfx').css('top', '0px')
}
else {
$('navigationfx').css('top', '-100px')
}
}
else {
//codes related to upward-scrolling here
if ($(window).scrollTop() < $('section').scrollTop())
{
$('navigationfx').css('top', '-100px')
}
else {
$('navigationfx').css('top', '0px')
}
}
//Updates current scroll position
CurrentScroll = NextScroll;
});
});
css
.navigationfx {
visibility: ;
position: fixed;
z-index: 2;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 5px 0 0 0;
width: 100%;
top: -50px;
left: 0;
background: rgba(250,250,250,0.5);
text-align: center;
color: #333;
border-bottom: 1px solid #dddedf
}
Few things:
You select the first section form the matched set as:
$('section').first();
Since, the section has no scroll, you would have to use the offset top as:
$('section').first().offset().top;
Do not scan the DOM over and over for the same element. Store a reference and use it as you need as:
var $nav = $(".navigationfx");
var $firstSection = $('section').first();
Not sure if this is what you wanted, but, here is your pen updated
P.S. It's okay to use .css() to add/update top for this specific scenario and doesn't have to be add/remove a class.
Because $('section').scrollTop() permanently equal 0.
Change it to $("section").offset().top.
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/jPpeKv
When you log $('section').scrollTop() to the console, you'll see that it always returns zero. Instead, use $('section').offset().top.
You are also missing a . in the navigationfx selector.
$(function(){
//last scroll will always save the current scroll position value
var CurrentScroll = 0;
$(window).scroll(function(event){
var NextScroll = $(this).scrollTop();
if (NextScroll > CurrentScroll){
//codes related to down-ward scrolling here
if($(window).scrollTop() > $('section').offset().top)
{
$('.navigationfx').css('top', '0px')
}
else {
$('.navigationfx').css('top', '-100px')
}
}
else {
//codes related to upward-scrolling here
if($(window).scrollTop() < $('section').offset().top)
{
$('.navigationfx').css('top', '-100px')
}
else {
$('.navigationfx').css('top', '0px')
}
}
//Updates current scroll position
CurrentScroll = NextScroll;
});
});
$('navigationfx') => $('.navigationfx')
and I think all this code can be shorten to that:
$(function(){
$(window).scroll(function(event){
var offset = $(window).scrollTop() > $('section').offset().top?'0px':'-100px';
$('.navigationfx').css('top', offset);
});
$(window).scroll();
});

Is it possible to use smooth scroll to anchor links but without jQuery? I am creating a new site and I don't want to use jQuery.
Extending this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/8918062/3851798
After defining your function of scrollTo, you can pass the element you want to scrollTo in the function.
function scrollTo(element, to, duration) {
if (duration <= 0) return;
var difference = to - element.scrollTop;
var perTick = difference / duration * 10;
setTimeout(function() {
element.scrollTop = element.scrollTop + perTick;
if (element.scrollTop === to) return;
scrollTo(element, to, duration - 10);
}, 10);
}
If you have a div with an id="footer"
<div id="footer" class="categories">…</div>
In the script that you run to scroll you can run this,
elmnt = document.getElementById("footer");
scrollTo(document.body, elmnt.offsetTop, 600);
And there you have it. Smooth scrolling without jQuery. You can actually play around with that code on your browser's console and fine tune it to your liking.
Using the function from here: JavaScript animation and modifying it to modify a property (not only a style's property), you can try something like this:
DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/7TAa2/1/
Just saying...
function animate(elem, style, unit, from, to, time, prop) {
if (!elem) {
return;
}
var start = new Date().getTime(),
timer = setInterval(function() {
var step = Math.min(1, (new Date().getTime() - start) / time);
if (prop) {
elem[style] = (from + step * (to - from)) + unit;
} else {
elem.style[style] = (from + step * (to - from)) + unit;
}
if (step === 1) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
}, 25);
if (prop) {
elem[style] = from + unit;
} else {
elem.style[style] = from + unit;
}
}
window.onload = function() {
var target = document.getElementById("div5");
animate(document.scrollingElement || document.documentElement, "scrollTop", "", 0, target.offsetTop, 2000, true);
};
div {
height: 50px;
}
<div id="div1">asdf1</div>
<div id="div2">asdf2</div>
<div id="div3">asdf3</div>
<div id="div4">asdf4</div>
<div id="div5">asdf5</div>
<div id="div6">asdf6</div>
<div id="div7">asdf7</div>
<div id="div8">asdf8</div>
<div id="div9">asdf9</div>
<div id="div10">asdf10</div>
<div id="div10">asdf11</div>
<div id="div10">asdf12</div>
<div id="div10">asdf13</div>
<div id="div10">asdf14</div>
<div id="div10">asdf15</div>
<div id="div10">asdf16</div>
<div id="div10">asdf17</div>
<div id="div10">asdf18</div>
<div id="div10">asdf19</div>
<div id="div10">asdf20</div>
Actually, there is more lightweight and simple way to do that:
https://codepen.io/ugg0t/pen/mqBBBY
function scrollTo(element) {
window.scroll({
behavior: 'smooth',
left: 0,
top: element.offsetTop
});
}
document.getElementById("button").addEventListener('click', () => {
scrollTo(document.getElementById("8"));
});
div {
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
background-color: black;
}
div:nth-child(odd) {
background-color: white;
}
button {
position: absolute;
left: 10px;
top: 10px;
}
<div id="1"></div>
<div id="2"></div>
<div id="3"></div>
<div id="4"></div>
<div id="5"></div>
<div id="6"></div>
<div id="7"></div>
<div id="8"></div>
<div id="9"></div>
<div id="10"></div>
<button id="button">Button</button>
This is a pretty old question, but it's important to say that nowadays smooth scrolling is supported in CSS, so there's no need for any scripts:
html {
scroll-behavior: smooth;
}
As noted by #Andiih, as of late 2022 there is full browser support for this.
Use this:
let element = document.getElementById("box");
element.scrollIntoView();
element.scrollIntoView(false);
element.scrollIntoView({block: "end"});
element.scrollIntoView({behavior: "instant", block: "end", inline: "nearest"});
DEMO: https://jsfiddle.net/anderpo/x8ucc5ak/1/
Vanilla js variant using requestAnimationFrame with easings and all browsers supported:
const requestAnimationFrame = window.requestAnimationFrame ||
window.webkitRequestAnimationFrame ||
window.mozRequestAnimationFrame ||
window.oRequestAnimationFrame ||
window.msRequestAnimationFrame;
function scrollTo(to) {
const start = window.scrollY || window.pageYOffset
const time = Date.now()
const duration = Math.abs(start - to) / 3;
(function step() {
var dx = Math.min(1, (Date.now() - time) / duration)
var pos = start + (to - start) * easeOutQuart(dx)
window.scrollTo(0, pos)
if (dx < 1) {
requestAnimationFrame(step)
}
})()
}
Any easing supported!
CSS3 transitions with a :target selector can give a nice result without any JS hacking. I was just contemplating whether to imlement this but without Jquery it does get a bit messy. See this question for details.
Try this code here:
window.scrollTo({
top: 0,
left: 0,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
Smooth Scroll behavior with polyfill...
Example:
document.querySelectorAll('a[href^="#"]').addEventListener("click", function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
document.querySelector(this.getAttribute("href")).scrollIntoView({ behavior: "smooth" });
});
Repository: https://github.com/iamdustan/smoothscroll
My favorite scroll-to library currently is Zenscroll because of the wide range of features and small size (currently only 3.17kb).
In the future it may make more sense to use the native scrollIntoView functionality, but since it'd have to be polyfilled in most production sites today due to the lack of IE support, I recommend using Zenscroll instead in all cases.

I know this is an old question but wanted to put forward an answer that has simpler ways of doing it in modern days. As of today, almost all the major browsers are compatible with scroll-behavior including Safari with its latest release. Still, you might want to employ fallback methods or just use the javascript approach described in method 2 for compatibility in older browsers.
Method 1: HTML and CSS
You can just do this with
Click
.
.
.
<h2 id="target">Target</h2>
and CSS
html {
scroll-behavior: smooth
}
Method 2: JavaScript
Or if you have a unique case that needs javascript, go on elaborate with this method.
const scrollTrigger = document.getElementById('scroll-trigger');
const target = document.getElementById('target');
scrollTrigger.addEventListener('click', function (e) {
window.scroll({
top: target.offsetTop,
left:0,
behavior: 'smooth' });
}, false)
It's upgraded version from #Ian
// Animated scroll with pure JS
// duration constant in ms
const animationDuration = 600;
// scrollable layout
const layout = document.querySelector('main');
const fps = 12; // in ms per scroll step, less value - smoother animation
function scrollAnimate(elem, style, unit, from, to, time, prop) {
if (!elem) {
return;
}
var start = new Date().getTime(),
timer = setInterval(function () {
var step = Math.min(1, (new Date().getTime() - start) / time);
var value = (from + step * (to - from)) + unit;
if (prop) {
elem[style] = value;
} else {
elem.style[style] = value;
}
if (step === 1) {
clearInterval(timer);
}
}, fps);
if (prop) {
elem[style] = from + unit;
} else {
elem.style[style] = from + unit;
}
}
function scrollTo(hash) {
const target = document.getElementById(hash);
const from = window.location.hash.substring(1) || 'start';
const offsetFrom = document.getElementById(from).offsetTop;
const offsetTo = target.offsetTop;
scrollAnimate(layout,
"scrollTop", "", offsetFrom, offsetTo, animationDuration, true);
setTimeout(function () {
window.location.hash = hash;
}, animationDuration+25)
};
// add scroll when click on menu items
var menu_items = document.querySelectorAll('a.mdl-navigation__link');
menu_items.forEach(function (elem) {
elem.addEventListener("click",
function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
scrollTo(elem.getAttribute('href').substring(1));
});
});
// scroll when open link with anchor
window.onload = function () {
if (window.location.hash) {
var target = document.getElementById(window.location.hash.substring(1));
scrollAnimate(layout, "scrollTop", "", 0, target.offsetTop, animationDuration, true);
}
}
For anyone in 2019,
first, you add an event listener
document.getElementById('id').addEventListener('click', () => scrollTo())
then you target the element and go smoothly to it
function scrollTo() {
let target = document.getElementById('target');
target.scrollIntoView({
behavior: "smooth",
block: "end",
inline: "nearest"
})
}
Based on MDN docs for scroll options we can use the following code:
element.scrollTo({
top: 100,
left: 100,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
In fact, the behavior key can accept smooth and auto variables. first for smooth motion and second for a single jump.
Here is a simple solution in pure JavaScript. It takes advantage of CSS property scroll-behavior: smooth
function scroll_to(id) {
document.documentElement.style.scrollBehavior = 'smooth'
element = document.createElement('a');
element.setAttribute('href', id)
element.click();
}
Usage:
Say we have 10 divs:
<div id='df7ds89' class='my_div'>ONE</div>
<div id='sdofo8f' class='my_div'>TWO</div>
<div id='34kj434' class='my_div'>THREE</div>
<div id='gbgfh98' class='my_div'>FOUR</div>
<div id='df89sdd' class='my_div'>FIVE</div>
<div id='34l3j3r' class='my_div'>SIX</div>
<div id='56j5453' class='my_div'>SEVEN</div>
<div id='75j6h4r' class='my_div'>EIGHT</div>
<div id='657kh54' class='my_div'>NINE</div>
<div id='43kjhjh' class='my_div'>TEN</div>
We can scroll to the ID of choice:
scroll_to('#657kh54')
You simply call this function on your click event (e.g. click button then scroll to div #9).
Result:
Of course it looks much smoother in real life.
FIDDLE
Unfortunately, IE and Safari don't support scrollBehavior = 'smooth' as of 2019
MDN Web Docs
For a more comprehensive list of methods for smooth scrolling, see my answer here.
To scroll to a certain position in an exact amount of time, window.requestAnimationFrame can be put to use, calculating the appropriate current position each time. setTimeout can be used to a similar effect when requestAnimationFrame is not supported.
/*
#param pos: the y-position to scroll to (in pixels)
#param time: the exact amount of time the scrolling will take (in milliseconds)
*/
function scrollToSmoothly(pos, time) {
var currentPos = window.pageYOffset;
var start = null;
if(time == null) time = 500;
pos = +pos, time = +time;
window.requestAnimationFrame(function step(currentTime) {
start = !start ? currentTime : start;
var progress = currentTime - start;
if (currentPos < pos) {
window.scrollTo(0, ((pos - currentPos) * progress / time) + currentPos);
} else {
window.scrollTo(0, currentPos - ((currentPos - pos) * progress / time));
}
if (progress < time) {
window.requestAnimationFrame(step);
} else {
window.scrollTo(0, pos);
}
});
}
Demo:
function scrollToSmoothly(pos, time) {
var currentPos = window.pageYOffset;
var start = null;
if(time == null) time = 500;
pos = +pos, time = +time;
window.requestAnimationFrame(function step(currentTime) {
start = !start ? currentTime : start;
var progress = currentTime - start;
if (currentPos < pos) {
window.scrollTo(0, ((pos - currentPos) * progress / time) + currentPos);
} else {
window.scrollTo(0, currentPos - ((currentPos - pos) * progress / time));
}
if (progress < time) {
window.requestAnimationFrame(step);
} else {
window.scrollTo(0, pos);
}
});
}
document.getElementById("toElement").addEventListener('click', function(e) {
var elem = document.querySelector("div");
scrollToSmoothly(elem.offsetTop);
});
document.getElementById("toTop").addEventListener('click', function(e){
scrollToSmoothly(0, 700);
});
<button id="toElement">Scroll To Element</button>
<div style="margin: 1000px 0px; text-align: center;">Div element
<button id="toTop">Scroll back to top</button>
</div>
For more complex cases, the SmoothScroll.js library can be used, which handles smooth scrolling both vertically and horizontally, scrolling inside other container elements, different easing behaviors, scrolling relatively from the current position, and more.
document.getElementById("toElement").addEventListener('click', function(e) {
smoothScroll({toElement: document.querySelector('div'), duration: 500});
});
document.getElementById("toTop").addEventListener('click', function(e){
smoothScroll({yPos: 0, duration: 700});
});

<div style="margin: 1000px 0px; text-align: center;">Div element

</div>
Alternatively, you can pass an options object to window.scroll which scrolls to a specific x and y position and window.scrollBy which scrolls a certain amount from the current position:
// Scroll to specific values
// scrollTo is the same
window.scroll({
top: 2500,
left: 0,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
// Scroll certain amounts from current position
window.scrollBy({
top: 100, // could be negative value
left: 0,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
Demo:
<button onClick="scrollToDiv()">Scroll To Element</button>
<div style="margin: 500px 0px;">Div</div>
<script>
function scrollToDiv(){
var elem = document.querySelector("div");
window.scroll({
top: elem.offsetTop,
left: 0,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
}
</script>
Modern browsers support the scroll-behavior CSS property, which can be used to make scrolling in the document smooth (without the need for JavaScript). Anchor tags can be used for this by giving the anchor tag a href of # plus the id of the element to scroll to). You can also set the scroll-behavior property for a specific container like a div to make its contents scroll smoothly.
html, body{
scroll-behavior: smooth;
}
Scroll To Element
<div id="elem" style="margin: 500px 0px;">Div</div>
Without jQuery
const links = document.querySelectorAll('header nav ul a')
for (const link of links) {
link.onclick = function clickHandler(e) {
e.preventDefault()
const href = this.getAttribute('href')
document.querySelector(href).scrollIntoView({ behavior: 'smooth' })

Or with just CSS, but it's not supported in all browsers yet
html {scroll-behavior: smooth}
If you want to set all of your deep links # to scroll smoothly you can do this:
const allLinks = document.querySelectorAll('a[href^="#"]')
allLinks.forEach(link => {
const
targetSelector = link.getAttribute('href'),
target = document.querySelector(targetSelector)
if (target) {
link.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault()
const top = target.offsetTop // consider decreasing your main nav's height from this number
window.scroll({
behavior: 'smooth',
left: 0,
top: top
});
})
}
})
An example code to consider also your main nav's height (this code goes where top const is declared):
const
mainHeader = document.querySelector('header#masthead'), //change to your correct main nav selector
mainHeaderHeight = mainHeader.offsetHeight,
// now calculate top like this:
top = target.offsetTop - mainHeaderHeight
Here is the most elegant and concise solution.

CSS:
html {
scroll-behavior: smooth;
}
Remember to add a unique id="elementIDtoScrollTo" to each HTML element.
