This is a bit too tricky for my jQuery / javascript knowledge so i'm sorry to say i haven't really tried anything yet. I need some hints to get pointed in the right direction!
The problem is that i have a fixed element on my page, and when scrolling down this element will enter different wrappers, and while in that wrapper i need a smaller child element to "snap" to my fixed element and while it's in the element.
Kind of hard to explain, i made a static mockup here:
http://jsfiddle.net/ycmYc/
When "fixed cart button" reaches a price, i need it to attach and scroll with the cart button as long as it's inside the prices "product-div". When it leaves and enters the next the price should stay in the bottom of it's product and then snap to the cart-button again when the users is reaching it by scrolling up.
Well, again, sorry for not having tried anything but i am lost. If i had to do this without any help i think i'd go with waypoints.js but it feels far from optimal.
Any help MUCH APPRECIATED!
The fixed element will always have the same position, so i guess offset from the browser top could be used instead of keeping track of it's position. Always something ;)
Update:
Been working on it myself, and got it working downwards but not upwards:
Should clarify what i mean:
http://retype.se/temp/scrolltest/test.html
When scrolling by the price, it joins the button downwards and snaps loose when leaving the container. My problem now is making it snap to it and scroll back to its original position when scrolling upwards :)
Do you want it like this?

How about this?

this is just a brainfart, but maybe it gets things going (sry, dont have time for a fiddle). But I got the idea, of maybe trying to cheat optically.
What I mean is, to calculate the absolute positions of all price divs, hide them, and when the cart div reaches that position by scrolling, show the price div for x amount of pixel scrolling (or via z-indexes by making backgrounds, not sure what suits you better).
Hope this helps a bit, maybe I get time today to script it out.
It kinda depends on the constraints. You can detect the scroll position of a window with:
window.pageYOffset or document.documentElement.scrollTop.
If the divs are all the same size you could easily calculate which div the button is over and the position: fixed the price next to it.

I'm currently working on a website. I want to have a fixed text (I know how to do that) that changes if you scroll.
So if you're on top of the page it shows '0' and then, while scrolling, the number goes up and up and when you scrolled one viewport-height it should be '10000'.
I think this should be done with javascript, but I'm just a beginner with it. Could you please help me? Thank you very much.
edit
Thanks Ajay for the tip with the onscroll function. But this always just adds a number on scrolling. I want something like this (look at the top left hand corner). Where the size is relative to the position on the site and not the scrolling wheel.
Try using the onScroll event of javascript.
Here is a useful link to learn.
The wording in the title is weird, apologies. It's hard to explain the effect.
I currently have this, it works best on Chrome:
http://mattluckhurst.com/dev/
My client wants each panel to slide up as the user scrolls down, covering the previous panel. I am currently accomplishing this by setting the "current" panel to have position:fixed and top:0 as soon as the page scrolls to it. The panels each have a z-index that corresponds to their vertical position on the page. So ideally:
You scroll down. when the next panel is halfway up the window, the scroll animates to get you all the way there, then that panel is snapped to the top so the next one can come in over it.
It's working pretty well in Chrome, but I am getting a lot of flickering and stuff elsewhere. Also on mobile it's a mess, but we really want a nice smooth swipe up down.
I know fixed elements can get pretty funky on mobile, so I am wondering if that is the problem, or if I should be using something other than just window scrolling for the animation / effect.
I see more complex parallax stuff all the time, so this should be pretty doable, I'm just not sure where to start.
Thanks for any help! Let me know if you need more info.

I'm looking to do something like this. I'm using code from this answer here but the answer is never made entirely clear. They are suggested to use this jquery plugin here but I haven't been able to get it to work. I would go with the first example's code, only, I'm using Foundation 4 and the progress bars are something that come with it and are simpler to create. Also, the animation code provided in the second example is a lot cleaner-- overall, the first example is kinda messy, code heavy, and redundant.
My code is live here. I'm working with the skill bars in the about section. Before the user gets to this point, the animation should be paused. Once the user scrolls to this part of the page, the animation should play.
EDIT: Also, if you have any suggestions to stop the bars from "breaking" out of their containers when you scale the page (this site is meant to be responsive), I would appreciate that as well.
EDIT2: I've noticed as I've been playing with this that overflow: hidden; on .progress fixes my "breaking" issue.. however, when you resize the window, the sizes stay at what they initialized at. I know realistically users visiting my site likely won't be resizing the window a whole lot, but for employers looking at it, it'll kinda be lame if it doesn't work properly. I'm having this same issue with the grumpy-cat button overlays where it initializes at the first size and doesn't resize the overlay after that. Suggestions to this would be really, really appreciated!
If you know where your skill bar is and you know where your screen is at, you only need javascript. (no plugins or weird stuff)
To get the vertical position of your screen it's simple:
window.pageYOffset
To get the vertical position of your div, you just need
div.offsetTop
In your case, I would give an id to the div that wraps all the skill bars and set a loop (window.requestAnimationFrame https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/window.requestAnimationFrame ) to check if you're within reach of the div (say, if the difference between the window offset and the div is less than some amount).
If the answer is yes, trigger the animation.
The best way to do the animation is by a css transition. (if you need a good intro to css animations here's a video that i found helpful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoncDvOfUkk )
You can set css animations from javascript.
The idea is that you would set all your "meter" widths to 0. Then in javascript do something like:
div.style.transition = "width 1s";
div.style.width = someValue;
My recommendation for the value to include in the div is some constant fraction of the "progress" div, as in with % as opposed to em or px. This technique should work. (in case you still have issues, you have a window.requestAnimationFrame loop going on so you can recalculate the values at each timestep... although... beware performance).
The reason you were recommended jQuery is because when you're going to have to update all the divs in order to animate them, just writing $(this).find('.meter') and then addClass('.expand') is so much easier.
Hope this helps
I'm having a little trouble getting my head around a Javascript animated scroll issue.
I'm using the SuperScrollorama Jquery plugin which is built on-top of the Greensock JS tweening library.
The fundamental effect I'm after is to "pin" a section down, then use vertical scrolling to expand some content, then "unpin" the section once the content is fully expanded, so the user can scroll on - i.e. http://blueribbondesign.com.au/example/
But when I try to apply this same effect to multiple sections one after the other, everything gets all broken: the "unpinned" content below the pinned element is pushed off screen and it seems to miscalculate the height of the element when it performs the animation in reverse (i.e. scrolling back up the page). - i.e. http://blueribbondesign.com.au/example2/
I've been endlessly fiddling with the "position:fixed" and "pin-spacer" div, and tried attaching the Superscrollorama plugin to various containing elements, but still cannot work out how to get it to work.
Any help from the brilliant crowd-sourced minds of the web would be much appreciated,
Cheers,
TN.
I've been working with this issue myself. What happens is there's a blank div spacer put above the section being pinned with a height that you've defined in the pin() function. Secondly, the pinned element gets a position:fixed assigned to it. Both of these things allow the scroll bar to continue down the page while the element stays affixed. In turn, whatever you had below that section gets bumped down because of that spacer div's height.
If your pinned element is centered horizontally, first give it a left:50%, margin-left:-{width/2}px to fix it from pushing to the left edge.
Next, you'll have to detect the pin/unpin events (which are offered by the plugin as parameters additional to "anim"), and change the section underneath to also toggle a fixed/relative position. When you change that underlying section to be at a fixed position, be sure to set its "top" property to whatever the pinned element's height is. Once the pinned element becomes unpinned, change it back to relative positioning. Does that make any sense?
It seems that different techniques will call for different fixes, but those things are what I'd pay attention to... fixed positioning, and then using the pin/unpin events for adjustment.
I want a html div which will scroll when user scroll down the page and it will get to fixed position when it's parent tag ends. For example:- See this link http://www.9gag.com/ they have alot to posts on one page. When we scroll one post and go to end of the first post, the title and share buttons become to fixed position and then the second post do the same and same for the next posts. Just exactly like that. How can we do this in Jquery or raw javascript or in css.
Maybe you want to try this plugin: http://labs.anthonygarand.com/sticky/ Sticky is a jQuery plugin that gives you the ability to
make any element on your page always stay visible by making the element to be floated when they has reached the limit.
$(window).scrollTop() will give you the number of pixels scrolled down in the browser, $('postcontainer').offset() will give you the x,y positions of a post container.
So if you bind an event to $(window).scroll() or to the mousescroll, you can check if the postcontainer's offset().top is less than the window.scrollTop. If it is then you start moving the item down relative to the post container. When doing this you need to keep track of the post container's height and the moving element's height to make sure it doesn't go down past the bottom of the container.
So if postcontainer.height - movingelement.position().top >= movingelement.height() then you need to fix the position of the moving element. Do the opposite while scrolling back up.
Hopefully this will get you thinking and starting to kick out some code.
This is the solution for your problem with a simple css property.
use position:sticky to follows the scroll.
