I need sticky headers to stop being sticky beyond a certain point-CodePudding

I have a set up where once the artworks are displayed, there's the name and occupation of the participant on the left. I have managed to make it sticky so we can scroll through the images and have their name on the left. now I want that once the images of the first participant are done, that their name also scrolls out (so sticky ends) and that the new participant name can take over with their image. rigth now they overlap. I need to figure out how to make it exit with the last image.

The CSS class sections I am talking about are .name and .occupation / .nameb and .occupationb

Here is my code:

* {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}
body {
    height: 7000px;
    background: linear-gradient(0deg, rgb(255, 255, 255) 0%, rgb(179, 179, 179) 50%, rgb(0, 0, 0) 85%);
}
h1 {
    background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);
    position: sticky;
    height: 8rem;
    top: 0;
    color: white;
    padding-left: 35px;
    padding-top: 10px;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    
}

a {
    color: white;
    font-family: sans-serif;
}

img {
    width: 50px;
    padding-left: 26px;
}
.content {
        padding: 16px;
        padding-top: 60px;
        padding-left: 35px;
        text-align: left;
        font-family: sans-serif;
        font-size: 20px;
        color: rgb(255, 255, 255);
        background: transparent;
    }

.ex1 {
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 72px;
    color: white;
    padding-bottom: 20px;
    text-align: center;
    text-decoration: underline;
}

    h2 {
    position: sticky;
    top: 8rem;
    padding-top: 0px;
    text-align: center;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    color: rgb(255, 255, 255);
    font-size: 30px;
    background-color: black;
}

.name {
    position: sticky;
    top: 14rem;
    text-align: left;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 20px;
    color:rgb(255, 255, 255);
}
.occupation {
    position: sticky;
    top: 16rem;
    text-align: left;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 15px;
    color: white;
}

.nameb {
    position: sticky;
    top: 14rem;
    text-align: left;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 20px;
    color:black;
}
.occupationb {
    position: sticky;
    top: 16rem;
    text-align: left;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 15px;
    color: rgb(0, 0, 0);
}

.img {
    display:block;
    width: 50%;
    margin-right: auto;
    margin-left: auto;
    padding-top: 20px;
}

Ps: I am really new to coding, so please it explain it in simple terms. And from the info I gathered online, I think I need to use javascript for this, but I have no idea how. Thanks in advance for any help.

CodePudding user response：

The easiest way to solve this is to add the content into sections. A sticky element will not be moved completely out of flow. So it remains an element within it's parent element and as such will leave the viewport if the parent element leaves it aswell.

I added a section just for the h1 up to the enxt h2 element to demonstrate the solution:

* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

body {
  height: 7000px;
  background: linear-gradient(0deg, rgb(255, 255, 255) 0%, rgb(179, 179, 179) 50%, rgb(0, 0, 0) 85%);
}

h1 {
  background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);
  position: sticky;
  height: 8rem;
  top: 0;
  color: white;
  padding-left: 35px;
  padding-top: 10px;
  font-family: sans-serif;
}

a {
  color: white;
  font-family: sans-serif;
}

img {
  width: 50px;
  padding-left: 26px;
}

.content {
  padding: 16px;
  padding-top: 60px;
  padding-left: 35px;
  text-align: left;
  font-family: sans-serif;
  font-size: 20px;
  color: rgb(255, 255, 255);
  background: transparent;
}

  font-family: sans-serif;
  font-size: 72px;
  color: white;
  padding-bottom: 20px;
  text-align: center;
  text-decoration: underline;
}

h2 {
  position: sticky;
  top: 8rem;
  padding-top: 0px;
  text-align: center;
