  2. Top and Bottom Limits: Define limits for sticky elements based on scrolling.
  3. Smooth Transitions: Add smooth transitions for sticky element activation and deactivation.
  4. Cross-browser Compatibility: Ensures consistent behavior across different web browsers.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced Navigation: Keeps important navigation elements visible at all times.
  • User-Friendly: Provides a seamless scrolling experience for users.
  • Customizable: Allows you to tailor the sticky behavior to your specific needs.
  • Improved UX: Reduces the need for users to scroll back to access important content.
