Abstract
A method generating section dividers that remain visible when the section to which they correspond has been scrolled off the display is provided. In a region displaying scrollable content, section dividers scroll with their corresponding section until the section divider reaches an edge of the display region. The section divider then becomes the new edge of the display region.
