Not quite sure what section to ask this question but I found a piece of code using script with css that allows me to have a menu which sticks to the top of the screen when you scroll down.
At the moment its alligned left and I want it centred under my title and to stay centred when you scroll down.
I've tried changing a few values and using padding but its creating problems and I figured there must be a easier to do it that I'm probly missing.
thank you
Script
Code:
<script>
$(function() {
// grab the initial top offset of the navigation
var sticky_navigation_offset_top = $('#sticky_navigation').offset().top;
// our function that decides weather the navigation bar should have "fixed" css position or not.
var sticky_navigation = function(){
var scroll_top = $(window).scrollTop(); // our current vertical position from the top
// if we've scrolled more than the navigation, change its position to fixed to stick to top,
// otherwise change it back to relative
if (scroll_top > sticky_navigation_offset_top) {
$('#sticky_navigation').css({ 'position': 'fixed', 'top':0, 'left':0 });
} else {
$('#sticky_navigation').css({ 'position': 'relative' });
}
};
// run our function on load
sticky_navigation();
// and run it again every time you scroll
$(window).scroll(function() {
sticky_navigation();
});
});
</script>
HTML

<div id="demo_top_wrapper">
<!-- a header with a logo just to have some content before the menu -->
<!-- this will be our navigation menu -->
<div id="sticky_navigation_wrapper">
<div id="sticky_navigation">
<div class="demo_container">
<ul>
<li><a href="#">About Me</a></li>
<li><a href="#">My Work</a></li>
