Fixed page header in Lightning Design System

I'm using SLDS in a Lightning component, and I'm sure I've read somewhere that the page header can be made to stay fixed whilst the rest of the screen is vertically scrolled.

My page header looks like this: 
<div class="slds-page-header">
    <p class="slds-text-heading--label">Contacts</p>
    <h1>My Contacts</h1>
 </div>

Is there a class that I'm missing?

Hi Amit, thanks for the response.  That is great but I am using the new Lightning Design System and want to know how I achieve the fixed header using its CSS classes.

Thanks
John
tlfutlfu
SLDS is based on Flexbox, so you can achieve this in an SLDS styled page. We've done this in one of our apps. Basically we have a containment structure that looks like this:
  
.my-container {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    height: 100%;
}

.my-content {
    position:relative;
    flex: 1 1 auto;
    overflow-y: auto;
    min-height: 0;
}

.my-body {
    position:absolute;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}

<div class="slds my-container">
      <div> sticky header goes here</div>
      <div class="my-content" >
            <div class="my-body>
                  content goes here... the my-content div pushes the footer to the bottom of the page, and as content is added, it will scroll vertically, while the footer remains visible at the bottom
            </div>
      </div>
      <div> sticky footer goes here</div>
</div>

Hi tlfu,
does your solution works also on Salesforce1?

Thanks
Davide
tlfutlfu
Sorry. I can't answer that. Ours is a desktop app. We have no requirement for it to run in Salesforce1.
