Show div on scrollDown after 800px

Question

I want to show a hidden div when scrolling down after 800px from the top of the page. By now I have this example, but I guess it needs modification in order to achive what I am looking for.

EDIT:

[And when scrollUp and the height is less the 800px, this div should hide]

HTML:

<div class="bottomMenu">
  <!-- content -->
</div>

css:

.bottomMenu {
    width: 100%;
    height: 60px;
    border-top: 1px solid #000;
    position: fixed;
    bottom: 0px;
    z-index: 100;
    opacity: 0;
}

jQuery:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(window).scroll( function(){
        $('.bottomMenu').each( function(i){
            var bottom_of_object = $(this).position().top + $(this).outerHeight();
            var bottom_of_window = $(window).scrollTop() + $(window).height();
            if( bottom_of_window > bottom_of_object ){
                $(this).animate({'opacity':'1'},500);
            }
        }); 
    });
});

Here is a Fiddle of my current code.

If you want to show a div after scrolling a number of pixels:

Working Example

$(document).scroll(function() {
  var y = $(this).scrollTop();
  if (y > 800) {
    $('.bottomMenu').fadeIn();
  } else {
    $('.bottomMenu').fadeOut();
  }
});

$(document).scroll(function() {
  var y = $(this).scrollTop();
  if (y > 800) {
    $('.bottomMenu').fadeIn();
  } else {
    $('.bottomMenu').fadeOut();
  }
});

body {
  height: 1600px;
}
.bottomMenu {
  display: none;
  position: fixed;
  bottom: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 60px;
  border-top: 1px solid #000;
  background: red;
  z-index: 1;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<p>Scroll down... </p>
<div class="bottomMenu"></div>

Its simple, but effective.

If you want to show a div after scrolling a number of pixels,

without jQuery:

Working Example

myID = document.getElementById("myID");

var myScrollFunc = function() {
  var y = window.scrollY;
  if (y >= 800) {
    myID.className = "bottomMenu show"
  } else {
    myID.className = "bottomMenu hide"
  }
};

window.addEventListener("scroll", myScrollFunc);

myID = document.getElementById("myID");

var myScrollFunc = function() {
  var y = window.scrollY;
  if (y >= 800) {
    myID.className = "bottomMenu show"
  } else {
    myID.className = "bottomMenu hide"
  }
};

window.addEventListener("scroll", myScrollFunc);

body {
  height: 2000px;
}
.bottomMenu {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 60px;
  border-top: 1px solid #000;
  background: red;
  z-index: 1;
  transition: all 1s;
}
.hide {
  opacity: 0;
  left: -100%;
}
.show {
  opacity: 1;
  left: 0;
}

<div id="myID" class="bottomMenu hide"></div>

If you want to show an element after scrolling to it:

Working Example

$('h1').each(function () {
    var y = $(document).scrollTop();
    var t = $(this).parent().offset().top;
    if (y > t) {
        $(this).fadeIn();
    } else {
        $(this).fadeOut();
    }
});

$(document).scroll(function() {
  //Show element after user scrolls 800px
  var y = $(this).scrollTop();
  if (y > 800) {
    $('.bottomMenu').fadeIn();
  } else {
    $('.bottomMenu').fadeOut();
  }

  // Show element after user scrolls past 
  // the top edge of its parent 
  $('h1').each(function() {
    var t = $(this).parent().offset().top;
    if (y > t) {
      $(this).fadeIn();
    } else {
      $(this).fadeOut();
    }
  });
});

body {
  height: 1600px;
}
.bottomMenu {
  display: none;
  position: fixed;
  bottom: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 60px;
  border-top: 1px solid #000;
  background: red;
  z-index: 1;
}
.scrollPast {
  width: 100%;
  height: 150px;
  background: blue;
  position: relative;
  top: 50px;
  margin: 20px 0;
}
h1 {
  display: none;
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 0;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<p>Scroll Down...</p>
<div class="scrollPast">
  <h1>I fade in when you scroll to my parent</h1>

</div>
<div class="scrollPast">
  <h1>I fade in when you scroll to my parent</h1>

</div>
<div class="scrollPast">
  <h1>I fade in when you scroll to my parent</h1>

</div>
<div class="bottomMenu">I fade in when you scroll past 800px</div>

Note that you can't get the offset of elements set to display: none;, grab the offset of the element's parent instead.

If you want to have a nav or div stick or dock to the top of the page once you scroll to it and unstick/undock when you scroll back up:

Working Example

$(document).scroll(function () {
    //stick nav to top of page
    var y = $(this).scrollTop();
    var navWrap = $('#navWrap').offset().top;
    if (y > navWrap) {
        $('nav').addClass('sticky');
    } else {
        $('nav').removeClass('sticky');
    }
});

#navWrap {
    height:70px
}
nav {
    height: 70px;
    background:gray;
}
.sticky {
    position: fixed;
    top:0;
}

$(document).scroll(function () {
    //stick nav to top of page
    var y = $(this).scrollTop();
    var navWrap = $('#navWrap').offset().top;
    if (y > navWrap) {
        $('nav').addClass('sticky');
    } else {
        $('nav').removeClass('sticky');
    }
});

body {
    height:1600px;
    margin:0;
}
#navWrap {
    height:70px
}
nav {
    height: 70px;
    background:gray;
}
.sticky {
    position: fixed;
    top:0;
}
h1 {
    margin: 0;
}

SCROLLBARS & $(window).scrollTop()

What I have discovered is that calling such functionality as in the solution thankfully provided above, (there are many more examples of this throughout this forum - which all work well) is only successful when scrollbars are actually visible and operating.

If (as I have maybe foolishly tried), you wish to implement such functionality, and you also wish to, shall we say, implement a minimalist "clean screen" free of scrollbars, such as at this discussion, then $(window).scrollTop() will not work.

It may be a programming fundamental, but thought I'd offer the heads up to any fellow newbies, as I spent a long time figuring this out.

If anyone could offer some advice as to how to overcome this or a little more insight, feel free to reply, as I had to resort to show/hide onmouseover/mouseleave instead here

Live long and program, CollyG.

You can also, do this.

$(window).on("scroll", function () {
   if ($(this).scrollTop() > 800) {
      #code here
   } else {
      #code here
   }
});

You've got a few things going on there. One, why a class? Do you actually have multiple of these on the page? The CSS suggests you can't. If not you should use an ID - it's faster to select both in CSS and jQuery:

<div id=bottomMenu>You read it all.</div>

Second you've got a few crazy things going on in that CSS - in particular the z-index is supposed to just be a number, not measured in pixels. It specifies what layer this tag is on, where each higher number is closer to the user (or put another way, on top of/occluding tags with lower z-indexes).

The animation you're trying to do is basically .fadeIn(), so just set the div to display: none; initially and use .fadeIn() to animate it:

$('#bottomMenu').fadeIn(2000);

.fadeIn() works by first doing display: (whatever the proper display property is for the tag), opacity: 0, then gradually ratcheting up the opacity.

Full working example:

http://jsfiddle.net/b9chris/sMyfT/

CSS:

#bottomMenu {
    display: none;
    position: fixed;
    left: 0; bottom: 0;
    width: 100%; height: 60px;
    border-top: 1px solid #000;
    background: #fff;
    z-index: 1;
}

JS:

var $win = $(window);

function checkScroll() {
    if ($win.scrollTop() > 100) {
        $win.off('scroll', checkScroll);
        $('#bottomMenu').fadeIn(2000);
    }
}

$win.scroll(checkScroll);
