The Question:
The Link to an Example: http://jsfiddle.net/j65yQ/
/* First: */
/* Set the Position of the Division Tag to Fixed When Reaching the Top of the Window While Scrolling */
$(window).scroll(function(){
var u_div_cn = $('div#container_nav');
var u_os_top_read = $('div#container_nav').offset().top;
if ($(window).scrollTop() > u_os_top_read) {
u_div_cn.addClass('set_position');};
});
Which resulting value does .scrollTop() get when scrolling?
The division tag in the above example does set its position attribute to fixed by the conditional if statement when it has reached the top of the window.
Yet, why does in this example "greater than" .offset().top work, in contrast to "equals to" zero, which has not worked after many tries?
As an Example for the "Equals To":
$(window).scroll(function(){
var u_div_cn = $('div#container_nav');
var u_div_cn_os_top = $('div#container_nav').scrollTop();
if ( u_div_cn_os_top == 0 ) {
u_div_cn.addClass('set_position');
};
});
The reason why I am asking is, because I thought of the equals to to work as well right at top: 0 of the window.
