Does anyone know how to make multiple on scroll fixed headers? I've checked answers such as this.
It's kind of what I want, but I want that header to stop before another header and when the first header gets scrolled past the second header should be taking the first header's place and stick at the very top of the screen. But they don't work for me because they're using libraries that I'm not working with(jQuery, etc.) and they are overly, overly complicated. I've tried to do this, I got it to work with getBoundingClientRect()
with only 2 headers. I've provided the HTML&CSS part here:
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
}
@import url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:100");
h1 {
letter-spacing: 3px;
margin: 0;
padding-left: 10px;
padding-top: 10px;
color: #fff;
font-weight: 100;
}
.header {
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
}
.header:nth-of-type(1){
background-color: dodgerblue;
position: fixed;
}
.header:nth-of-type(2){
background-color: rebeccapurple;
}
.header:nth-of-type(3){
background-color: chartreuse;
}
.content {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: linear-gradient(70deg, orange, crimson);
padding-top: 50px;
}
<header class="header"><h1>HEADER 1</h1></header>
<div class="content"><h1>CONTENT</h1></div>
<header class="header"><h1>HEADER 2</h1></header>
<div class="content"><h1>CONTENT</h1></div>
<header class="header"><h1>HEADER 3</h1></header>
<div class="content"><h1>CONTENT</h1></div>

Explanation:
position: sticky
with correct markup will do the work
PS: I know there is already an answer using position: sticky
but in that solution the previous header doesn't stop but overlaps with the next one. In my solution is stops before the next sticking.
Without your javascript code, i can suggest you use position:sticky
which achieves what you want.

If you want header 2 and header 3 to be sticky, but show below the next add top
with padding to each header (here header-2 has top: 50px;
so it will not override the first, and the third has top: 100px;
).
