Floating menu bar using HTML/CSS?
wondered if any one knew of a way of creating a floating menu bar that sticks to a point on a page until the browser window gets far enough down the page and unsticks it and then the menu bar begins to scroll along with it. The effect I want is the exact same as this http://www.jtricks.com/javascript/navigation/floating.html javascript menu. However, I really want to do this with CSS.开发者_Python百科 I am aware I can make the div Absolutely positioned and it will move down the page, I tried making one DIV relative positioned (parent div) and then another div inside this which was absolute positioned, but I could not get this to work. Does any one know how to make this work with CSS or does it need to be JS?
Thanks in advance.

I believe using javascript is the only solution to get the effect you described. Here's a quick demo of a banner that starts in a absolute position and goes to fixed when the user scrolls.
<div style="height:1000px;width:500px;">
<div id="floatbar" style="background:gray;
width:200px;
height:40px;
position:absolute;
left:0;top:200px;">
</div>
</div>
$(window).scroll(function(){
if ($(window).scrollTop() >= 200)
{
$("#floatbar").css({position:'fixed',left:'0',top:'0'});
}
else
{
$("#floatbar").css({position:'absolute',left:'0',top:'200px'});
}
});
well if you do NOT need the animation, than just use
position: fixed;
in the css.
if you want it animated you need to use javascript. for example in jquery:
$(window).scroll(function(){
$('#menu').css({
right: 0,
top: 0
})
})
Well you can't do it with absolute positioned div inside of a relative. Fixed position is basically an absolute positioned div, positioned relatively to the window. I'd say you definately need javascript here.
This should be rather easy with a fixed sidebar, and a floating content section. Try something like this...
#container {
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
}
#sidenav {
width: 300px;
position: fixed; /*--Fix the sidenav to stay in one spot--*/
float: left; /*--Keeps sidenav into place when Fixed positioning fails--*/
}
#content {
float: right; /*--Keeps content to the right side--*/
width: 620px;
padding: 0 20px 20px;
}
This is old post but CSS has changed a lot since then, we can do a floating menu with plain CSS. See sample code below. Credit to https://www.quackit.com/css/codes/css_floating_menu.cfm
main {
margin-bottom: 200%;
}
.floating-menu {
font-family: sans-serif;
background: yellowgreen;
padding: 5px;;
width: 130px;
z-index: 100;
position: fixed;
right: 0px;/* You can change float left/right */
}
.floating-menu a,
.floating-menu h3 {
font-size: 0.9em;
display: block;
margin: 0 0.5em;
color: white;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<title>Example</title>
<main>
<p>Scroll down and watch the menu remain fixed in the same position, as though it was floating.</p>
<nav class="floating-menu">
<h3>Floating Menu</h3>
<a href="/css/">CSS</a>
<a href="/html/">HTML</a>
<a href="/database/">Database</a>
</nav>
</main>
I believe it needs to be JS. I can imagine it can be rather simple with jQuery and I really cannot think of any way to achieve this only with CSS. I'll try to think about it, but I doubt I'll find a solution.
