<li>about</li>

body { margin: 0; }
ul{

width: 100%;
}

display:inline;
margin-left:10px;
}

.fixed {
position: fixed;
top:0; left:0;
width: 100%; }

3. Then add JS

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

if (scroll >= 100) sticky.addClass('fixed');
else sticky.removeClass('fixed');
});

you can also use this too. If the trigger point is unknown but should be whenever the sticky element reaches the top of the screen, offset().top can be used. then you can use the JS.

var stickyOffset = $('.sticky').offset().top;

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

if (scroll >= stickyOffset) sticky.addClass('fixed');
else sticky.removeClass('fixed');
});
