Question

I need to quickly knock up the functionality of the twitter bootstraps main navigation and sub navigation e.g. http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/scaffolding.html (when you scroll the subnav becomes fixed to that main navigation)

Has anyone implemented this or are there any tutorials?

Answer 1

Here is my code to implement this feature:

$(document).scroll(function(){
    // If has not activated (has no attribute "data-top"
    if (!$('.subnav').attr('data-top')) {
        // If already fixed, then do nothing
        if ($('.subnav').hasClass('subnav-fixed')) return;
        // Remember top position
        var offset = $('.subnav').offset()
        $('.subnav').attr('data-top', offset.top);
    }

    if ($('.subnav').attr('data-top') - $('.subnav').outerHeight() <= $(this).scrollTop())
        $('.subnav').addClass('subnav-fixed');
    else
        $('.subnav').removeClass('subnav-fixed');
});
