Pageyoffset

By Stephen Chapman, About.com

Definition: The pageYOffset property is used to determine the Y coordinate of the scroll position in some browsers. This is not a reserved word so you can declare your own variable or function called pageYOffset but if you do then you will not be able to find or alter the scroll position of a window in some browsers
Examples:
var posY = window.pageYOffset;
