How to make div fixed after you scroll to that div?

How to make a div remain fixed after you scroll to that div? I have a div that is later in a page and you need to scroll to get to that div.

If I use:

.divname {
  position: fixed;
}

The div will appear before it should appear normally. Maybe a good example of what I need is second ad on 9gag. If your screen resolution is low enough, you won't see that ad after you load the front page, but after you scroll down, you'll see the second ad and it will remain fixed while you scroll down.

This is now possible with CSS only, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/53832799/1482443

In case anyone needs jQuery approach, below is the original answer as it was posted years ago:

I know this is tagged html/css only, but you can't do that with css only. Easiest way will be using some jQuery.

var fixmeTop = $('.fixme').offset().top;       // get initial position of the element

$(window).scroll(function() {                  // assign scroll event listener

    var currentScroll = $(window).scrollTop(); // get current position

    if (currentScroll >= fixmeTop) {           // apply position: fixed if you
        $('.fixme').css({                      // scroll to that element or below it
            position: 'fixed',
            top: '0',
            left: '0'
        });
    } else {                                   // apply position: static
        $('.fixme').css({                      // if you scroll above it
            position: 'static'
        });
    }

});

Adding on to @Alexandre Aimbiré's answer - sometimes you may need to specify z-index:1 to have the element always on top while scrolling. Like this:

position: -webkit-sticky; /* Safari & IE */
position: sticky;
top: 0;
z-index: 1;

This is possible with CSS3. Just use position: sticky, as seen here.

position: -webkit-sticky; /* Safari & IE */
position: sticky;
top: 0;

<script>
if($(window).width() >= 1200){
    (function($) {
        var element = $('.to_move_content'),
            originalY = element.offset().top;

        // Space between element and top of screen (when scrolling)
        var topMargin = 10;

        // Should probably be set in CSS; but here just for emphasis
        element.css('position', 'relative');

        $(window).on('scroll', function(event) {
            var scrollTop = $(window).scrollTop();

            element.stop(false, false).animate({
                top: scrollTop < originalY
                    ? 0
                    : scrollTop - originalY + topMargin
            }, 0);
        });
    })(jQuery);
}

Try this ! just add class .to_move_content to you div

it worked for me 

$(document).scroll(function() {
    var y = $(document).scrollTop(), //get page y value 
        header = $("#myarea"); // your div id
    if(y >= 400)  {
        header.css({position: "fixed", "top" : "0", "left" : "0"});
    } else {
        header.css("position", "static");
    }
});

jquery function is most important 

<script>
$(function(){
    var stickyHeaderTop = $('#stickytypeheader').offset().top;

    $(window).scroll(function(){
            if( $(window).scrollTop() > stickyHeaderTop ) {
                    $('#stickytypeheader').css({position: 'fixed', top: '0px'});
                    $('#sticky').css('display', 'block');
            } else {
                    $('#stickytypeheader').css({position: 'static', top: '0px'});
                    $('#sticky').css('display', 'none');
            }
    });
});
</script>

Then use JQuery Lib...

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Now use HTML

<div id="header">
    <p>This text is non sticky</p>
    <p>This text is non sticky</p>
    <p>This text is non sticky</p>
    <p>This text is non sticky</p>
 </div>

<div id="stickytypeheader">
 <table width="100%">
  <tr>
    <td><a href="http://growthpages.com/">Growth pages</a></td>

    <td><a href="http://google.com/">Google</a></td>

    <td><a href="http://yahoo.com/">Yahoo</a></td>

    <td><a href="http://www.bing.com/">Bing</a></td>

    <td><a href="#">Visitor</a></td>
  </tr>
 </table>
</div>

<div id="content">
