Hi folks,
Can anyone help me with the correct terms to seed my Google search?
I'm trying to discover whether it's possible to check
programmatically (maybe with Javascript, Jquery, etc.) whether a
specific element on a web page (that is readable from the page
HTML), such as a specific div, tag or string, is currently within
the visible rendered page area of a browser window with a (vertical)
scroll bar.
Otherwise, if it's a specific page - with a known layout and
therefore calculable coordinates for the element to find - is it
possible to know how the browser window's current size and scroll
offset relate to the 'underlying' page?
This is a link to a page that gives a detailed javascript answer,
including sample code for calculating based on browser quirks.
It is a good read.
