I got the hang of this, but I notice that ANY sample sit using this does not work on IPad or IPhone. I did a search for the closest updates to either canvas or the JQuery plug in and cannot find anything that will work on those platforms. Desktop versions look great but this is a hard sell to clients who want this in re designed sites but will surely back away once they know it does not work well in IP or IPh.

Anybody have any other info on this?

Excellent point, I just came across a WordPress theme that uses parallax scrolling . it displays fone in IPhone but the scrolling effect isn’t the same. I have another question regarding parallax scrolling so not to confuse I will start a new thread, thx

Ralphiedee, at the moment, it’s not possible on iOS devices. iOS devices freeze DOM manipulation during scroll, queuing them to apply when the scroll finishes.

For more details, see the Scroll events section of the jQuery mobile site.

You can do it by down loading the smallest touch swipe container on the internet at http://torontographic.wordpress.com/
Parallex scrolling on iOS by me.

Hi,

We recently released a site which does parallax scrolling on iPad. There is a bit of an explanation, and a video of it in use here: http://www.aerian.com/portfolio/one-potato/one-potato-html5-website

and the site itself if you have an iPad to play with:

http://one-potato.co.uk.

To do this, we have written some JavaScript library code which we are looking to open-source in the near future.

If you’d like some help on this, IM me on here.

Cheers,
Tom

Hi hicksyfern, would love to try out your JavaScript lib.

There’s a jQuery parallax plugin called [Stellar.js](http://markdalgleish.com/projects/stellar.js/) which has [a demo](http://markdalgleish.com/projects/stellar.js/demos/ios.html) that works in tandem with [Scrollability](http://joehewitt.github.com/scrollability/) to achieve a touch-friendly parallax scrolling effect.

That said, that demo also works with click-and-drag in desktop browsers, so you’d probably also want to include some code that checks for touch support and switches between scrolling methods accordingly.

Mark Dalgleish who developped stellar.js explained really well how to achieve this using iScroll.js to simulate an iOS scroll.
