//To detect how much the user has scrolled the page vertically in terms of pixels
//from the very top, in JavaScript, we would probe either window.pageYOffset,
//or in older versions of IE, one of several variants of document.body.scrollTop,
//whichever property is supported:
var scrollTop = window.pageYOffset || (document.documentElement || document.body.parentNode || document.body).scrollTop
//Using jQuery instead, the equivalent would be:
var scrollTop = $(window).scrollTop() //Best
