fullPage.js

A simple and easy to use plugin to create fullscreen scrolling websites (also known as single page websites). It allows the creation of fullscreen scrolling websites, as well as adding some landscape sliders inside the sections of the site.

Introduction

The plugin is in its first version and will keep improving with time. Suggestion are more than welcome, not only for feature requests but also for coding style improvements.

Let's make this a great plugin to make people's lives easier!

fullPage.js is fully functional on all modern browsers, as well as some old ones such as IE8 and Opera 12.

Usage

As you can see in the example.html file, you will need to include the JavaScript file jquery.fullPage.js (or the minified version jquery.fullPage.min.js) and the css file jquery.fullPage.css of the plugin, as well as jQuery. Optionally, you can add the jQuery UI library in case you want to use easing effects (this is active by default).

###Including files:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="jquery.fullPage.css" />

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.9.1/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>	
	
<!-- This is needed in the case of setting the plugin 
	option `scrollOverflow` to `true` -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="vendors/jquery.slimscroll.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.fullPage.js"></script>

###Required HTML structure Each section will be defined with a div containing the section class. The active section by default will be the first section, which is taken as the home page.

<div class="section">Some section</div>
<div class="section">Some section</div>
<div class="section">Some section</div>
<div class="section">Some section</div>

In order to create a landscape slider within a section, each slide will be defined with another div:

<div class="section">
	<div class="slide"> Slide 1 </div>
	<div class="slide"> Slide 2 </div>
	<div class="slide"> Slide 3 </div>
	<div class="slide"> Slide 4 </div>
</div>

You can see a fully working example of the HTML structure in the example.html file.

###Initialization All you need to do is call the plugin inside a $(document).ready function:

$(document).ready(function() {
	$.fn.fullpage();
});

A more complex initialization with all options set could look like this:

$(document).ready(function() {
	$.fn.fullpage({
		verticalCentered: true,
		resize : true,
		slidesColor : ['#ccc', '#fff'],
		anchors:['firstSlide', 'secondSlide'],
		scrollingSpeed: 700,
		easing: 'easeInQuart',
		menu: false,
		navigation: false,
		navigationPosition: 'right',
		loopBottom: false,
		loopTop: false,
		autoScrolling: true,
		scrollOverflow: false,
		css3: false,

		//events
		onLeave: function(index, direction){},
		afterLoad: function(anchorLink, index){},
		afterRender: function(){},
	});
});

Advance usage

In order to create links to certain slides inside a section, you could do it in two ways:

Using anchor links

If you are using fullPage.js with anchor links for the sections (using the anchors option), then you will be able to use anchor links also to navigate directly to a certain slide inside a section.

You can do it by using the index of the slide (starting by 0), or if you prefer, you can create custom anchor links for them by using the attribute data-anchor in each slide. For example:

<div class="section">
    <div class="slide" data-anchor="slide1"> Slide 1 </div>
    <div class="slide" data-anchor="slide2"> Slide 2 </div>
    <div class="slide" data-anchor="slide3"> Slide 3 </div>
    <div class="slide" data-anchor="slide4"> Slide 4 </div>
</div>

Using events:

• class="toSlide"
• data-index="3" (or whatever slide number you want to link)

For example:

<span class="toSlide" data-index="3">Click here to go to slide 3</span>

Live example

To create links between sections, you could use the menu option and make use of anchor links (#) as explained below in the options section.

Options

• verticalCentered: (default true) Vertically centering of the content within sections.

• resize: (default true) Whether you want to resize the text when the window is resized.

• scrollingSpeed: (default 700) Speed in miliseconds for the scrolling transitions.

• slidesColor:(default none) Define the CSS background-color property for each section: Example:

$.fn.fullpage({
    slidesColor: ['#f2f2f2', '#4BBFC3', '#7BAABE', 'whitesmoke', '#000'],
});

• easing: (default easeInQuart) Defines the transition effect to use for the vertical scrolling. It requieres jQuery UI for using some of its transitions. Other libraries could be used instead.

• loopTop: (default false) Defines whether scrolling up in the first section should scroll to the last one or not.

• loopBottom: (default false) Defines whether scrolling down in the last section should scroll to the first one or not.

• css3: (default false). Defines wheter to use JavaScript or CSS3 transforms to scroll within sections and slides. Useful to speed up the movement in tablet and mobile devices with browsers supporting CSS3.

• autoScrolling: (default true) Defines whether to use the "automatic" scrolling or the "normal" one. It also has affects the way the sections fit in the browser/device window in tablets and mobile phones.

• menu: (default false) A selector can be used to specify the menu to link with the slides. This way the scrolling of the slides will activate the corresponding element in the menu using the class active. This won't generate a menu but will just add the active class to the element in the given menu with the corresponding anchor links. In order to link the elements of the menu with the slides, an HTML 5 data-tag (data-menuanchor) will be needed to use with the same anchor links as used within the sections. Example:

<ul id="myMenu">
    <li data-menuanchor="firstPage" class="active"><a href="#firstPage">First section</a></li>
    <li data-menuanchor="secondPage"><a href="#secondPage">Second section</a></li>
    <li data-menuanchor="thirdPage"><a href="#thirdPage">Third section</a></li>
    <li data-menuanchor="fourthPage"><a href="#fourthPage">Fourth section</a></li>
</ul>

$.fn.fullpage({
    anchors: ['firstPage', 'secondPage', 'thirdPage', 'fourthPage', 'lastPage'],
    menu: '#myMenu'
});

• navigation: (default false) If set to true, it will show a navigation bar made up of small circles. It requieres the use of anchor links at the moment.

• navigationPosition: (default right) It can be set to left or right and defines which position the navigation bar will be shown (if using one).

• scrollOverflow: (default false) defines whether or not to create a scroll for the section in case its content is bigger than the height of it. In case of setting it to true, it requieres the vendor plugin jquery.slimscroll.min and it should be loaded before the fullPaje.js plugin. For example:

<script type="text/javascript" src="vendors/jquery.slimscroll.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.fullPage.js"></script>

Methods

moveSlideUp

Scrolls one slide up:

$.fn.fullpage.moveSlideUp();

moveSlideDown

Scrolls one slide down:

$.fn.fullpage.moveSlideDown();

moveToSlide

Scrolls the page to the given slide anchor name or to the given index.

/*Scrolling to the section with the anchor link `firstSlide` */
$.fn.fullpage.moveToSlide('firstSlide');

/*Scrolling to the 3rd section in the site*/
$.fn.fullpage.moveToSlide(3); 

setAutoScrolling

Sets the scrolling configuration in real time. Defines the way the page scrolling behaves. If it is set to true, it will use the "automatic" scrolling, otherwise, it will use the "manual" or "normal" scrolling of the site. Be careful when combining this option with scrollOverflow set to true, as it might be difficult to scroll using the mouse wheel or the trackpad when the section is scrollable.

$.fn.fullpage.setAutoScrolling('false');

Callbacks

afterLoad (anchorLink, index) Callback fired once the sections have been loaded, after the scrolling has ended. Parameters:

• anchorLink: anchorLink corresponding to the section.
• index: index of the section. Starting from 1.

In case of not having anchorLinks defined in the plugin the index parameter would be the only one to use.

Example:

	$.fn.fullpage({
		anchors: ['firstPage', 'secondPage', 'thirdPage', 'fourthPage', 'lastPage'],
	
		afterLoad: function(anchorLink, index){
			//using index
			if(index == '3'){
				alert("Section 3 ended loading");
			}
			
			//using anchorLink
			if(anchorLink == 'secondSlide'){
				alert("Section 2 ended loading");
			}
		}
	});

onLeave (index, direction) This callback is fired once the user leaves a section, in the transition to the new section.

Parameters:

• index: index of the leaving section. Starting from 1.
• direction: it will take the values up or down depending on the scrolling direction.

Example:

	$.fn.fullpage({	
		onLeave: function(index, direction){
			//after leaving section 2
			if(index == '2' && direction =='down'){
				alert("Going to section 3!");
			}
			
			else if(index == '2' && direction == 'up'){
				alert("Going to section 1!");
			}
		}
	});

afterRender () This callback is fired just after the structure of the page is generated. This is the callback you want to use to initialize other plugins or fire any code which requires the document to be ready (as this plugin modifies the DOM to create the resulting structure).

Example:

	$.fn.fullpage({
		afterRender: function(){
			alert("The resulting DOM stucture is ready");
		}
	});
