How to check if element is visible after scrolling?
This should do the trick:
function isScrolledIntoView(elem)
{
var docViewTop = $(window).scrollTop();
var docViewBottom = docViewTop + $(window).height();
var elemTop = $(elem).offset().top;
var elemBottom = elemTop + $(elem).height();
return ((elemBottom <= docViewBottom) && (elemTop >= docViewTop));
}
Simple Utility Function This will allow you to call a utility function that accepts the element you're looking for and if you want the element to be fully in view or partially.
function Utils() {
}
Utils.prototype = {
constructor: Utils,
isElementInView: function (element, fullyInView) {
var pageTop = $(window).scrollTop();
var pageBottom = pageTop + $(window).height();
var elementTop = $(element).offset().top;
var elementBottom = elementTop + $(element).height();
if (fullyInView === true) {
return ((pageTop < elementTop) && (pageBottom > elementBottom));
} else {
return ((elementTop <= pageBottom) && (elementBottom >= pageTop));
}
}
};
var Utils = new Utils();
Usage
var isElementInView = Utils.isElementInView($('#flyout-left-container'), false);
if (isElementInView) {
console.log('in view');
} else {
console.log('out of view');
}
This answer in Vanilla:
function isScrolledIntoView(el) {
var rect = el.getBoundingClientRect();
var elemTop = rect.top;
var elemBottom = rect.bottom;
// Only completely visible elements return true:
var isVisible = (elemTop >= 0) && (elemBottom <= window.innerHeight);
// Partially visible elements return true:
//isVisible = elemTop < window.innerHeight && elemBottom >= 0;
return isVisible;
}
