Just trying to learn how to implement a simple background image with parrallax. It works fine on desktop/laptop, but is very choppy and doesnt work properly on mobile devices. Using bootstrap-sass with rails.
Any obvious errors/tips that you can see?
CSS
.bg {
background: url('home.jpg') no-repeat center center;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 450px; /*same height as jumbotron */
padding-top: 0;
top:80px;
left:0;
z-index: -1;
}
#backPic {
height: 450px;
padding-top: 150px;
color: white;
text-shadow: #444 0 1px 1px;
background:transparent;
@media(min-width: $screen-lg-min) {
text-align: left;
margin-left: 0;
}
}
JS
<script>
var jumboHeight = $('#backPic').outerHeight();
function parallax(){
var scrolled = $(window).scrollTop();
$('.bg').css('height', (jumboHeight-scrolled) + 'px');
}
$(window).scroll(function(e){
parallax();
});
</script>
HTML
