I'm trying to make the background image reduce the opacity on scroll and once away from the landing page, using vanilla javascript to lower it to a minimum of 0.5. I tried adding Math.max()
in the scroll function to only drop it to 0.5, but it causes the image to stay at 0.5 for all pages.
I want the landing page to always have an opacity of 1, and all other pages to have an opacity of 0.5. I am able to animate the scroll but need it to stop at 0.5.
const landingHeight = document.getElementById("section-landing").offsetHeight; window.onscroll = function() { const opcFilter = (window.pageYOffset/ landingHeight); document.body.style.background = "linear-gradient(rgba(255, 255, 255, " + opcFilter + "), rgba(255, 255, 255, " + opcFilter + ")), url(https://images.pexels.com/photos/255379/pexels-photo-255379.jpeg) no-repeat"; }
body{ margin: 0; padding: 0; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; scroll-behavior: smooth; background: linear-gradient(rgba(255, 255, 255, 0), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0)), url(https://images.pexels.com/photos/255379/pexels-photo-255379.jpeg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed !important; background-size: cover !important; background-position: center top !important; } nav{ width: 100%; background: #C1C8D0; overflow:hidden; position: fixed; top:0; } ul{ margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; } li{ float: right; } a{ padding: 5px; width: 130px; display: block; text-align: center; font-weight: bold; color: black; text-decoration: none; } div{ height: 1000px; overflow: scroll; }
<body> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="#section-page2">Page 2</a></li> <li><a href="#section-page1">Page 1</a></li> <li><a href="#section-landing">Landing Page</a></li> </ul> </nav> <div class="section" id="section-landing"> <h1 class="title ">Landing Page</h1> <p> The background image here will have an opacity of 1. As we scroll to the next page, the opacity will transition to 0.5. </p> </div> <div class="section" id="section-page1"> <h1>Page 1</h1> <p> Opacity is now have 0.5 and will stay there for the remaining pages. Scrolling back up to the landing page will set opacity to 1. </p> </div> <div class="section" id="section-page2"> <h1>Page 2</h1> <p> Another page of opacity 0.5 </p> </div> </body>
You need to add
Math.min
instead ofMath.max
like this: (I also added awindow.onload
to run in the snippet, but it's not mandatory if your script load isdefer
ed)
