Scrolling Nav Sticks to Top

My problem is along the lines of these previous issues on StackOverflow but with a slight difference.
Previous issues:
Stopping fixed position scrolling at a certain point?
Sticky subnav when scrolling past, breaks on resize
I have a sub nav that starts at a certain position in the page. When the page is scrolled the sub nav needs to stop 127px from the top. Most of the solutions I have found need you to specify the 'y' position of the sub nav first. The problem with this is that my sub nav will be starting from different positions on different pages.
This is the JS code i'm currently using. This works fine for one page but not all. Plus on mobile the values would be different again.
var num = 660; //number of pixels before modifying styles
$(window).bind('scroll', function () {
if ($(window).scrollTop() > num) {
$('.menu').addClass('fixed');
} else {
$('.menu').removeClass('fixed');
}
});
I'm looking for a solution that stops the sub nav 127px from the top no matter where on the page it started from.

You can use position: sticky and set the top of the sub-nav to 127px.
See example below:
body {
margin: 0;
}
.main-nav {
width: 100%;
height: 100px;
background-color: lime;
position: sticky;
top: 0;
}
.sub-nav {
position: sticky;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
background-color: red;
top: 100px;
}
.contents {
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
background-color: black;
color: white;
}
.contents p {
margin: 0;
}
<nav class="main-nav">Main-nav</nav>
<div class="contents">
<p>Contents</p>
</div>
<nav class="sub-nav">Sub-nav</nav>
<div class="contents">
<p>More contents</p>
</div>
Please see browser support for sticky here

You should change your code to the below, should work fine:
$(window).bind('scroll', function () {
if ($(window).scrollTop() > $(".menu").offset().top) {
$('.menu').addClass('fixed');
} else {
$('.menu').removeClass('fixed');
}
});

Maybe you can try this:
Find navigation div (.menu)
Find the top value of the .menu (vanilla JS would be menuVar.getBoundingClientRect().top, not sure how jQuery does this).
Get top value of browserscreen.
Calculate the difference - 127px.
When the user scrolls and reaches the top value of the menu -127px -> addClass('fixed').

Change font color on scroll based on a div

I am currently coding a simple MENU button that is fixed in the top right of the screen.
With the text it is normally Black, but I want to be able to change the text to White when it is within a certain Div on a page so it is still visible on the dark background images.
I had set up two .CSS classes and tried to get them to switch on scroll but I cannot figure it out.
Anyone know how I can achieve this result?
HTML
<div class="NavigationButton menu_white">
MENU
</div>
CSS
.NavigationButton {
position: fixed;
top: 5%;
right: 5%;
z-index: 99999;
font-family: neuzeit-grotesk, sans-serif;
font-weight: 700;
color: inherit;
}
.menu_white {
color: #fff;
}
.menu_black {
color: #000;
}

Just without the snap scroll
Thanks

You can use jQuery to get the scroll position and toggle the classes based on where the dark background element is. Here is an example
$(document).ready(function(){
$(window).scroll(function(){
var light_pos = $('#white_div').offset().top;
var light_height = $('#white_div').height();
var menu_pos = $('.NavigationButton').offset().top;
var scroll = $(window).scrollTop();
if(menu_pos > light_pos && menu_pos < (light_pos + light_height)) {
$('.NavigationButton').addClass('menu_black');
$('.NavigationButton').removeClass('menu_white');
}
else {
$('.NavigationButton').removeClass('menu_black');
$('.NavigationButton').addClass('menu_white');
}
})
})
and here is a working fiddle https://jsfiddle.net/atqkuwhs/

A possible solution is to get the offset of the div and the menu from the top of the page and apply your wanted changes once they intersect.

In-page anchors not working properly in combination with "scroll-then-fix" JS navbar code

I use this nice little JavaScript to make my navigation bar (which is normally sitting 230px down from the top) stick to the top of the page once the page is scrolled down that 230 px. It then gives the "nav" element a "fixed" position.
$(document).ready(function() {
$(window).bind('scroll', function() {
if ($(window).scrollTop() > 230) {
$('nav').addClass('fixed');
} else {
$('nav').removeClass('fixed');
}
});
});
nav {
width: 90%;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
max-width: 1400px;
height: 85px;
background-color: rgba(249, 241, 228, 1);
margin: auto;
border-top-left-radius: 0em;
border-top-right-radius: 0em;
border-bottom-left-radius: 2em;
border-bottom-right-radius: 2em;
}
.fixed {
position: fixed;
border-top: 0;
top: 0;
margin: auto;
left: 0;
right: 0;
z-index: 4;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<nav>
<ul>
<li>One</li>
<li>Two</li>
<li>Three</li>
<li>Four</li>
</ul>
</nav>
Now, the problem: i have positioned the corresponding anchor targets
within the page and have given them some "padding-top" to account for the fixed navbar (about 90px), so that they don't disappear behind the bar when the page jumps to them after clicking.
.anchor {
padding-top: 90px;
}
<a class="anchor" id="three">
This works fine AS LONG AS the navbar is already fixed to the top.
But if you click on a link while the navbar is still in its original mid-page position (e.g. the first click the user will do), it just disregards the offset i gave the anchor target and jumps to a weird position where the anchor target is hidden behind the navbar (and not even aligned with the top of the page)!
If i THEN click on the link again (now in the fixed bar on top of the page), it corrects itself and displays the page as i want to. But that first click always misses - i can't figure out why! Please help
EDIT: WORKING DEMO here: http://www.myway.de/husow/problem/problem.html

1st Add a new class name spacebody to your first div with class="space"
<nav>
...
</nav>
<div class="space spacebody">
</div>
2nd JS use the following should fix your problem:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(window).bind('scroll', function() {
if ($(window).scrollTop() > 230) {
$('nav').addClass('fixed');
$('.spacebody').css('margin-top', '85px');
} else {
$('nav').removeClass('fixed');
$('.spacebody').css('margin-top', '0px');
}
});
});
Reason Why?
because when your nav is not fixed, it has a height of 85px, when you scroll down it has no height which is 0 height. Then everything below move up by 85px causing your to go below the target of ONE or TWO etc. It is not you are missing the first click, it is when the nav are not fixed and the click you will be scroll more down by 85px. If you scroll to top and click you will miss again.
You can easily see this if you change your CSS for nav with background-color: transparent;
With the code above should fix it when you nav become fixed to add a margin-top as 85px to the div below so they keep the same height as you clicked.

Always focus mouse cursor in particular div in JQuery

I have a div "wtb_wrapper_middle" in middle of my web page.
For that div only scroll able in web page. In left and right div are not movable, it fixed in my web page.
So I want to mouse always focus on that particular div wherever my mouse clicked or mouse hover. Means when i use keyboard up or down button at that time that particular div only should be scroll.
Is there possible in JQuery.
My code is like below.
<div id="wtb_wrapper_inner">
<div id="wrapper_left">
....
....
....
</div>
<div id="wtb_wrapper_middle">
....
....
....
....
</div>
<div id="wtb_wrapper_right">
....
....
....
</div>
</div>
In from above html code "wtb_wrapper_middle" area only scrolls in my web page.
I have tried the below
window.onload = function() {
document.getElementById("wtb_wrapper_middle_inner").focus();
};
In this code is focus only on page load, but if clicked mouse in somewhere else, at that time also that middle area should be scroll. That is not working.
My Ajax callback function like below
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "search.php?ajaxrequest=yes",
data: query_string
}).done(function( data ) {
$(".wtb_p_loader").remove();
$("#wtb_wm_listing").append(data);
});
I'm appending return success data into the di wtb_wm_listing which is i have placed inside of main div wtb_wrapper_middle
Anyone help me to make it success..

You can do this using css position: fixed;
The two outer divs are fixed to the screen regardless of scroll position. Then the central div scrolls regardless of where the mouse pointer is. You can use top and bottom to fix the full height of the screen, then left and right to fix each on either side.
You can still interact with content in the fixed outer divs.
And the Html is
<div class='left'>
<a href='#'>Hover to check the mouse focus and scorll</a>
</div>
<div class='center'>
//some long content
</div>
<div class='right'>
</div>
Css for doing this action.
a {
color: #000;
display: block;
font-family: arial;
margin: 10px;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
background-color: #f03055;
color: #fafafa;
}
p {
color: #fafafa;
font-family: arial;
line-height: 24px;
margin: 0 0 25px 0;
padding: 0 2%;
}
.center {
background-color: #97c;
height: 2000px;
margin: 0 25%;
width: 50%%;
}
.left {
background-color: #7c9;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
width: 25%;
}
.right {
background-color: #7c9;
bottom: 0;
position: fixed;
right: 0;
top: 0;
width: 25%;
}

EDIT: to filter out input elements
document.body.onkeydown = function(event){
var e = event || window.event,
target = e.target || e.srcElement;
if (target.tagName.toUpperCase() == 'INPUT') return;
document.getElementById("wtb_wrapper_middle_inner").focus();
};
this will move focus to your middle div whenever keydown event occurs.

Float a div at the bottom right corner, but not inside footer

I'm trying to implement a "go to top" button that floats at the bottom right corner of a page. I can do this with the following code, but I don't want this button to enter the footer of my page. How can I stop it from entering the footer and stay at the top of it when user scrolls the page down to the bottom of the page?
CSS
#to-top {
position: fixed;
bottom: 10px;
right: 10px;
width: 100px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
background: #f7f7f7;
color: #333;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
display: none;
}
JavaScript
$(window).scroll(function() {
if($(this).scrollTop() != 0) {
$('#to-top').fadeIn();
} else {
$('#to-top').fadeOut();
}
});
$('#to-top').click(function() {
$('body,html').animate({scrollTop:0},"fast");
});
HTML
<div id="to-top">Back to Top</div>
EDIT
Here is a drawing of how it should look like. The black vertical rectangle is a scroll bar. The "back to top" button should never enter the footer region.
Here is a jsfiddle.

The solution turned out to be more complicated than I thought. Here is my solution.
It uses this function to check if footer is visible on the screen. If it is, it positions the button with position: absolute within a div. Otherwise, it uses position: fixed.
function isVisible(elment) {
var vpH = $(window).height(), // Viewport Height
st = $(window).scrollTop(), // Scroll Top
y = $(elment).offset().top;
return y <= (vpH + st);
}
$(window).scroll(function() {
if($(this).scrollTop() == 0) {
$('#to-top').fadeOut();
} else if (isVisible($('footer'))) {
$('#to-top').css('position','absolute');
} else {
$('#to-top').css('position','fixed');
$('#to-top').fadeIn();
}
});
jsfiddle

Increase the value of bottom: 10px; than the height of footer.
I saw your screenshot now,just add some padding-bottom to it.

Solution
$(document).ready(function(){
$(window).scroll(function(){
btnBottom = $(".btt").offset().top + $(".btt").outerHeight();
ftrTop = $(".footer").offset().top;
if (btnBottom > ftrTop)
$(".btt").css("bottom", btnBottom - ftrTop + $(".btt").outerHeight());
});
});

You forgot to give the z-index, that prevents it from being on top!
z-index: 999;
Or if it is overlapping with the footer of your page, you can increase the co-ordinates.
bottom: 50px;
Your question is still not clear, "stop it from entering the footer". Does it overlap?
