jQuery load more data on scroll

Question

I am just wondering how can i implement more data on scroll only if the div loading is visible   Usually we look for page height and scroll height  to see if we need to load more data  but the following example is little complicated then that   Following image is perfect example  there are two  loading div s on the drop down box  When user scroll the content  whichever is visible it should start loading more data for it     So how can i find out if  loading div is visible to user yet or not  So i can start loading data for that div only

The accepted answer of this question has some issue with chrome when the window is zoomed in to a value >100%. Here is the code recommended by chrome developers as part of a bug i had raised on the same.

$(window).scroll(function() {
  if($(window).scrollTop() + $(window).height() >= $(document).height()){
     //Your code here
  }
});

I spent some time trying to find a nice function to wrap a solution   Anyway  ended up with this which I feel is a better solutions when loading multiple content on a single page or across a site   Function   function ifViewLoadContent elem  LoadContent                    var top of element     elem  offset   top              var bottom of element     elem  offset   top     elem  outerHeight                var bottom of screen     window  scrollTop     window innerHeight              var top of screen     window  scrollTop                 if  bottom of screen  gt  top of element   amp  amp   top of screen  lt  bottom of element                if    elem  hasClass  ImLoaded                          elem  load LoadContent  addClass  ImLoaded                                            else                  return false                            You can then call the function using window on scroll  for example  you could also bind it to a click etc  as I also do  hence the function    To use     window  scroll function  event            ifViewLoadContent   AjaxDivOne    someFile somecontent html              ifViewLoadContent   AjaxDivTwo    someFile somemorecontent html               This approach should also work for scrolling divs etc   I hope it helps  in the question above you could use this approach to load your content in sections  maybe append and thereby dribble feed all that image data rather than bulk feed   I used this approach to reduce the overhead on https   www taxformcalculator com   It died the trick  if you look at the site and inspect element etc  you can see impact on page load in Chrome  as an example

Improving on  deepakssn answer  There is a possibility that you want the data to load a bit before we actually scroll to the bottom   var scrollLoad   true    window  scroll function     if  scrollLoad  amp  amp     document  height   -   window  height   -  window  scrollTop   lt  800          fetch data when we are 800px above the document end     scrollLoad   false                var scrollLoad  is used to block the call until one new data is appended   Hope this helps

I suggest using more Math ceil for avoid error on some screen  Because on a few different screens it s not absolutely accurate I realized that when I console log  console log   window  scrollTop       5659 20123123890    And console log  document  height   -   window  height        5660  So I think we should edit your code to   window  scroll function         if Math ceil   window  scrollTop               Math ceil    document  height   -   window  height                      ajax call get data from server and append to the div            Or Allow load data from server before scroll until bottom  if    window  scrollTop    gt      document  height   -   window  height   - 200         Load data

In jQuery  check whether you have hit the bottom of page using scroll  function  Once you hit that  make an ajax call  you can show a loading  image here till ajax response  and get the next set of data  append it  to the div   This function gets executed as you scroll down the page  again     window  scroll function         if   window  scrollTop        document  height   -   window  height                    ajax call get data from server and append to the div
