how does the front page here scroll to fixed views like this? is there some code that I can use in my own site to duplicate this effect, or is something I would need to program myself with js?

Here is a simple example I put together which just changes the color of a div and prints the scroll position to the page.

Look up some tutorials on parallax scrolling and that will walk you through what you need to know to do some interesting effects.
