I'm using this code to make the left column match the right column's height if left column is shorter than right column. It works on Chrome and Firefox, and on Safari, if seem to ignore the if statement and just execute the code anyway.
(function($) {
$(window).load(function() {
var rightHeight = $('.rightcolumn').height();
var leftHeight = $('.leftcolumn').height();
if (leftHeight < rightHeight) {
$('.leftcolumn').height(rightHeight);
}
})
})(jQuery);
Changing your code to this:
$(document).ready(function(){
var rightHeight = $('.rightcolumn').height();
var leftHeight = $('.leftcolumn').height();
if(leftHeight < rightHeight) {
$('.leftcolumn').height(rightHeight);
}
});
Seems to do the trick for safari.

I'm trying to change the Z index of an image according to the scroll position,currently in chrome (but it should be working on all broswers).
anyway, it's not working on chrome, unless I get into inspection mode and I don't understand why it's only working in inspection mode?
this is the script:
$( window ).scroll(function() {
var scrollTop = $(window).scrollTop();
if ($(this).scrollTop()>700) {
document.getElementById("back-ground-image").style.zIndex = "-9";
console.log("-9");
} else {
document.getElementById("back-ground-image").style.zIndex = "-19";
console.log("-19");
}
});
Problem
What you need is $(document) not $(window).
By default, you scroll the $(document), not the $(window).
However, when you open your Chrome DevTools, the $(window) is not being scrolled which is why your code works.
To fix the issue, change $(window).scroll() to $(document).scroll() and $(window).scrollTop() to $(document).scrollTop()
Improvements
1. Use jQuery functions
Also, if you're already using jQuery, why not use jQuery selectors and .css():
$("#back-ground-image").css('zIndex', '-9')
instead of
document.getElementById("back-ground-image").style.zIndex = "-9";
2. Use DRY code
(Don't Repeat Yourself)
If you follow recommendation #1, why not set $("#back-ground-image") to a variable instead of repeating it twice.
$(document).scroll(function() {
var scrollTop = $(document).scrollTop(),
$bkImg = $("#back-ground-image");
if ($(this).scrollTop() > 700) {
$bkImg.css('zIndex', '-9');
console.log("-9");
} else {
$bkImg.css('zIndex', '-19');
console.log("-19");
}
});
Otherwise, you could use:
$(document).scroll(function() {
var scrollTop = $(document).scrollTop(),
background = document.getElementById("back-ground-image");
if ($(this).scrollTop()>700) {
background.style.zIndex = "-9";
console.log("-9");
} else {
background.style.zIndex = "-19";
console.log("-19");
}
});
I have a piece of code, that's changing my div background on mousescroll and it's working fine in Chrome and Opera, but it doesn't in Firefox and IE/Edge.
I have two divs, the inner one has a background image that is changing on scroll down, the outer one is simply bigger so there is space to scroll.
In Firefox and IE/Edge, the scroll or doesn't work either skips an image, sometimes even doesn't purceed to scrolling the rest of the content on the website.

Any ideas why?
Here it is (and I know it's poorly written, but I'm new to javascript and it does the job):
$(document).ready(function(){
var numberofscroll = 0;
var lastScrollTop = 0;
$("#home").scroll(function(){
var st = $(this).scrollTop();
(st > lastScrollTop) ? numberofscroll++ : numberofscroll--;
console.log(numberofscroll);
console.log(lastScrollTop);
console.log(st);
if (numberofscroll<2){
change_background2(numberofscroll);
}
else if (numberofscroll<3){
change_background3(numberofscroll);
}
else if (numberofscroll<4){
change_background4(numberofscroll);
}
lastScrollTop = st;
});
function change_background2(numberofscroll){
var i;
for (i = 2; i <= 2; i++) {
$("#home").css("background-image","url('images/movie_" + i + ".jpg')");
}
}
function change_background3(numberofscroll){
var i;
for (i = 3; i <= 3; i++) {
$("#home").css("background-image","url('images/movie_" + i + ".jpg')");
}
}
function change_background4(numberofscroll){
var i;
for (i = 4; i <= 4; i++) {
$("#home").css("background-image","url('images/movie_" + i + ".jpg')");
}
}
});
The problem lies in the smooth scrolling feature of firefox and ie (see this question). This causes the jQuery scroll event to fire multiple times every time you scroll, thus the 'missing' images--they are being put in, but then they're replaced so fast you can't see them.
Unfortunately, since you can't disable the smooth scrolling feature on people's browsers, there isn't really a perfect solution to this. The best solution is to debounce your scroll event handler. There are many ways to implement a debounce (google it for some ideas). A simple one would be just toggling a boolean after a timeout and checking it every time you run the function:
var dontHandle = false;
$("#home").scroll(function () {
if (dontHandle) return; // Debounce this function.
dontHandle = true;
window.setTimeout(function() {
dontHandle = false;
}, 400); // Debounce!--don't let this function run again for 400 milliseconds.
});
Here's your updated JSFiddle. You may need to play with the debounce time. Best of luck.
I'd say your code is working as intended but I have a couple thoughts about the scroll event.
The scroll event will only be fired if scrolling actually takes place. Nothing will happen if your div doesn't scroll. You could get around that by using another library, check out this stackoverflow answer for some suggested libraries. Also, keep in mind that the scroll event is extremely sensitive, so the "skipping" of images may simply be a result of scrolling too fast.
I cleaned up your code to make better use of the change_background function.
var numberofscroll = 0;
var lastScrollTop = 0;
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#home").scroll(function(e) {
var st = $(this).scrollTop();
console.log(numberofscroll, lastScrollTop, st);
(st > lastScrollTop) ? numberofscroll++ : numberofscroll--;
//make sure numberofscroll stays in range
if(numberofscroll <= 0) {
numberofscroll = 1;
} else if(numberofscroll > 4) {
numberofscroll = 4;
}
change_background(numberofscroll);
lastScrollTop = st;
});
function change_background(numberofscroll) {
$("#home").css("background-image","url('http://coverjunction.s3.amazonaws.com/manual/low/colorful" + numberofscroll + ".jpg')");
}
});
Your change_background functions have been rolled into one function and numberofscroll will stay within a certain range to ensure the image you want actually exists.
Hope that helps!
I have the following script, and would like to make it work also for classes instead of id's only:
<script>
function parallax(){
var prlx_1 = document.getElementById('banner-welcome');
prlx_1.style.top = -(window.pageYOffset / 8)+'px';
}
window.addEventListener("scroll", parallax, false);
</script>
I have tried to do the following, but it does not work:
<script>
function parallax(){
var prlx_1 = document.getElementsByClassName('banners');
prlx_1.style.top = -(window.pageYOffset / 8)+'px';
}
window.addEventListener("scroll", parallax, false);
</script>
I have also tried to change it to JQuery (at least I think I hope I did), neither does it work:
<script>
var prlx = $('.banners');
$(window).on('scroll', function () {
prlx.css({ 'top': -(window.pageYOffset / 8)+'px' });
});
});
</script>
Here are the two examples, one works, one does not:
1st example works:
http://jsfiddle.net/ecb3744t/
2nd example doesn't work
http://jsfiddle.net/3mc4dcus/
3rd example doesn't work
http://jsfiddle.net/wvtqke36/
I've modified your third example and this should work:
var prlx = $('.banners');
$(window).on('scroll', function () {
$(prlx).css({ 'top': -(window.pageYOffset / 2)+'px' });
});
Your Fiddle did not include jQuery and you had a syntax error in your code.
Fiddle: modified example 3
If you don't want to use jQuery, then use this code:
function parallax(){
var prlx = document.getElementsByClassName('banners');
for(var i=0; i < prlx.length; i++) {
var elem = prlx[i];
elem.style.top = -(window.pageYOffset / 2)+'px';
}
}
window.addEventListener("scroll", parallax, false);
Note that document.getElementsByClassName() returns an array of elements. Therefore you'll have to loop through each of these elements and apply the transformation.

I'm trying to change color to a header when it reaches a certain scroll. I use this script with jQuery:
var $document = jQuery(document),
$element = jQuery('#header'),
className = 'red';
$document.scroll(function() {
$element.toggleClass(className, $document.scrollTop() >= 400);
});
That works on every browser, except for IE8. Does IE8 does not support the toggleClass? How can I solve it?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/itzuki87/e4XTw/
in IE: http://jsfiddle.net/itzuki87/e4XTw/show/
The problem is $(document) is read different in IE. IE prefers you to use $(window). You'll find the following to be much more cross-browser compatible.
$(function() {
$(window).scroll(function(e) {
$("#header").toggleClass("red", $(this).scrollTop() >= 400);
});
})
Or using your variable type setup:
jQuery(function() {
var $window = jQuery(window),
$element = jQuery("#header"),
className = "red";
$window.scroll(function(e) {
$element.toggleClass(className, jQuery(this).scrollTop() >= 400);
});
})
See working in IE8! and more (Safari, FF, Chrome, Opera)!
Using my smaller HTML
Due to css properties my scrolling to div tags has too much margin-top. So I see jquery as the best solution to get this fixed.
I'm not sure why this isn't working, I'm very new to Js and Jquery. Any help us greatly appreciated.
Here is a quick look at Js. I found that when your div ids are in containers to change the ('html, body') to ('container)
Here is my jsfiddle
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
var prevScrollTop = 0;
var $scrollDiv = jQuery('div#container');
var $currentDiv = $scrollDiv.children('div:first-child');
var $sectionid = 1;
var $numsections = 5;
$scrollDiv.scroll(function(eventObj)
{
var curScrollTop = $scrollDiv.scrollTop();
if (prevScrollTop < curScrollTop)
{
// Scrolling down:
if ($sectionid+1 > $numsections) {
console.log("End Panel Reached");
}
else {
$currentDiv = $currentDiv.next().scrollTo();
console.log("down");
console.log($currentDiv);
$sectionid=$sectionid+1;
console.log($currentDiv.attr('id'));
var divid =$currentDiv.attr('id');
jQuery('#container').animate({scrollTop:jQuery('#'+divid).position().top}, 'slow');
}
}
else if (prevScrollTop > curScrollTop)
{
// Scrolling up:
if ($sectionid-1 == 0) {
console.log("Top Panel Reached");
}
else {
$currentDiv = $currentDiv.prev().scrollTo();
console.log("up");
console.log($currentDiv);
$sectionid=$sectionid-1;
var divid =$currentDiv.attr('id');
jQuery('html, body').animate({scrollTop:jQuery('#'+divid).position().top}, 'slow');
}
}
prevScrollTop = curScrollTop;
});
});
I'm not entirely sure what you want but scrolling to a <div> with jQuery is simpler than your code.
For example this code replaces the automatic jumping behaviour of anchors with smoother scrolling:
$(document).ready(function(e){
$('.side-nav').on('click', 'a', function (e) {
var $this = $(this);
var top = $($this.attr('href')).offset().top;
$('html, body').stop().animate({
scrollTop: top
}, 'slow');
e.preventDefault();
});
});
You can of course adjust the top variable by adding or removing from it like:
var top = $($this.attr('href')).offset().top - 10;
I have also made a fiddle from it (on top of your HTML): http://jsfiddle.net/Qn5hG/8/
If this doesn't help you or your question is something different, please clarify it!
EDIT:
Problems with your fiddle:
jQuery is not referenced
You don't need jQuery(document).ready() if the jQuery framework is selected with "onLoad". Remove the first and last line of your JavaScript.
There is no div#container in your HTML so it's no reason to check where it is scrolled. And the scroll event will never fire on it.
Your HTML is invalid. There are a lot of unclosed elements and random tags at the end. Make sure it's valid.
It's very hard to figure out what your fiddle is supposed to do.
