Sticky Element

This lesson is part of How To · All levels

Summary

Sticky elements are elements that behave normally until they reach a certain point, then stick to the screen while the container is still visible. Position property: sticky combined with top, bottom, left, or right as the threshold of insertion. This pattern is often used for section titles, sidebars, or table header.

Key points

Position: sticky requires an offset value such as top: 0 to be active
The element only adheres as long as it is still within its parent area
Mother with overflow: hidden can turn off sticky behavior
Add z-index and solid background so that the content below it does not penetrate
