Floating Google +1, Facebook, Twitter Buttons For Blogger

HandBit
To add a floating widget to the left of all your posts like in this blog


Finally the Sliding Counters! Till now we learned and created many floating social share buttons but those button widgets in fact do not slide when the user scrolls the page up or down. The only thing I needed was a well constructed JavaScript code that could make the widget to float up and down synchronously with the webpage movement. 







Go To Blogger > Design
Choose a HTML/JavaScript widget
Paste the following code inside it,


<style>
/*-------------------*/
#floatdiv { 
    position:absolute; 
    width:94px; 
    height:229px; 
    top:0; 
    left:0; 
        z-index:100 
}

#mbtsidebar { 
        border:1px solid #ddd; 
        padding-left:5px; 
    position:relative; 
    height:220px; 
    width:55px; 
    margin:0 0 0 5px; 
}
</style>


<div id="floatdiv">
