How To Create Parallax Scrolling Effect Using jQuery

    In this article, we will see how to create a parallax scrolling effect using jquery. Parallax scrolling is a website trend where the background content (i.e. an image) is moved at a different speed than the foreground content while scrolling. Here we use a simple parallax scrolling effect inspired by Spotify.com implemented as a jQuery plugin.

    So, let's see parallax scrolling div jquery, jquery parallax plugin, parallax animation, parallax scrolling CSS, parallax scrolling jquery, jquery parallax scrolling, jquery parallax effect, smooth parallax scrolling, horizontal parallax scrolling jquery.

    Parallax.js is a dirt-simple parallax scrolling effect inspired by Spotify.com and implemented as a jQuery plugin.

Installation

    download the package from GitHub. Then include the parallax.min.js file in the HTML file after jQuery.

    Download and include parallax.min.js in your document after including jQuery.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="/path/to/parallax.js"></script>

    You can also use CDN instead of downloading files and use it.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/parallax.js/1.4.2/parallax.min.js"></script>

 

Usage

    Note: You must include <!DOCTYPE html> it on top of the document file.

Via data attributes

    To easily add a parallax effect behind an element, add data-parallax="scroll" to the element you want to use, and specify an image with data-image-src="/path/to/image.jpg".

<div class="parallax-window" data-parallax="scroll" data-image-src="/path/to/image.jpg"></div>
Via JavaScript

    To call the parallax plugin manually, simply select your target element with jQuery and do the following:

$('.parallax-window').parallax({imageSrc: '/path/to/image.jpg'});

    You will also need to set the height of the element and make it transparent, otherwise, you can not see the element.

.parallax-window {
    min-height: 400px;
    background: transparent;
}

    Also, keep in mind that once initialized, the parallax plugin presumes a fixed page layout unless it encounters a scroll or resize event. If you have a dynamic page in which another javascript method may alter the DOM, you must manually refresh the parallax effect with the following commands.

jQuery(window).trigger('resize').trigger('scroll');

Using inner HTML for complex content

    You can use the following syntax to enable complex content for the parallax:

<div class="parallax-window">
  <div class="parallax-slider">
    <span style="position:absolute; top: 400px; left: 400px;">Some Text</span>
	<p>Some other Content</p>
  </div>
</div>

    Please note, that the div with class "parallax-slider" is essential here.

    then need to initialize it through JS and provide the naturalWidth and naturalHeight options in order to be rendered correctly.

$('.parallax-window').parallax({
    naturalWidth: 600,
    naturalHeight: 400
  });

     This also makes it possible to use responsive images in the slider.

<div class="parallax-window">
  <div class="parallax-slider">
    <img src="/path/to/image.jpg" srcset="/path/to/image-400px.jpg 400w, /path/to/image-800px.jpg 800w, /path/to/image-1200px.jpg 1200w" sizes="100vw">
  </div>
</div>
