Really nice, thanks for sharing this. Not sure what the GPL2 licence means if I use it in my webpage. My content is licensed under CreativeCommons.

That should be ok, right?

Sorry, just answering a part of my own problem. I have to rename my jquery to jscript_jquery…js because I’m working in Zen cart and this is the protocol for making sitewide jscripts load. I have others where I have made this change to the filename and each has worked. This one doesn’t however. Does anyone know why?

Cheers

Dear Matt,

Happy new year.

I publish long text-based web documents for use by my students. In addition to the ‘Back to Top’ link I would also like to add a ‘Go to Bottom’ link so that students can jump straight to the bottom of the page. Also, when the student is mid-page, I’d like both the ‘Back to Top’ and ‘Go to Bottom’ links to be visible.

Is there any straightforward way of achieving this using your plugin. I am not a jQuery / Javascript expert so I would be very grateful if you could advise me.

Second: does your licence allow me to use your plugin on my University’s web site. The pages in which it would be used will be accessible only to students and instructional staff.

I would be grateful for your responses.

Many thanks and kind regards,

Grant Bailey
University of Western Sydney

Great plugin! Thanks!! :-) I would suggest adding the following to the CSS to make the button always appear on-top (to for example avoid that the button appears behind elements like the official Twitter Widget):

“z-index: 1000;”

caveats…:
1) This simple approach depends on other elements on your page all having inferior z-index values, etc. (duh).
2) When popovers are used, depending on the implementation and browser, this may cause the button to appear when it should not (i.e. while interacting with the popover).
3) The indicated value (1000) is a random big value :-)

hey, I love the plug-in, and it was super easy to use.

However, I would like to add some functionality to make the button stop scrolling with the screen when I begine scrolling into the footer.

We have a black background footer, and light grey background body, so the icon looks great on the body, but gets lost in the footer.

How could I make it stop scrolling when it reaches 500px before the end of the document?

Thanks again for the great plug-in!
