How to programmatically disable page scrolling with jQuery

Using jQuery, I would like to disable scrolling of the body:

My idea is to:

1. Set body{ overflow: hidden;}
2. Capture the current

Answer 1

To turn OFF scrolling try this:

var current = $(window).scrollTop();
$(window).scroll(function() {
    $(window).scrollTop(current);
});

to reset:

$(window).off('scroll');
