Here is a simplified version of my layout:
<body>
[... a bunch of content ...]
<div id="modal-overlay">
</div>
</body>
body contains enough content that the entire page scrolls.
#modal-overlay is styled like this:
#modal-overlay {
display: none;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
In response to a user action, I'll display the #modal-overlay by setting display: block;
The #modal-overlay then fills the entire viewport.
Here's the trouble...
SOMETIMES, when you swipe vertically on the the #modal-overlay - its content scrolls as it should.
However, SOMETIMES, the body scrolls instead, and the content in #modal-overlay doesn't scroll at all. It's as if I'm scrolling body through the #modal-overlay, which is exactly what I don't want.
In fact - it seems totally random whether #modal-overlay or body scrolls in response to the swipe gesture.
I've read about a few hacks (e.g., applying overflow:hidden to the body but I don't want to do that, since it loses the correct scroll position, and causes other problems as well.) I also would like to have a solution that works with any number of nested layers. I'm really trying to prevent scrolling through the uppermost layer, not fiddling with the underlying layers.
This is particularly problematic on iOS, since scrolling the body reduces the height the browser chrome, which expands the viewport, which messes with the layout of the #modal-overlay, since it's sized to fill the viewport. Aaargh.
Thanks in advance for any advice or guidance!
I haven't tried to achieve this on ios, but you can at least give a try using slimscroll jquery plugin if you are dealing with multiple layers and prevent scrolling of other layers.
Hope it helps
Body should be overflow-hidden and
add dynamically position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100% CSS properties to other content wrapper (content container inside the body) in the body when modal open.
When open the Modal
<style>
.modal-open {
overflow: hidden;
}
.modal-open .container {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
</style>
<body class="modal-open">
<section class="container">
Site content will be here
</section>
<div class="modal">
Modal content will be here
</div>
</body>
Add this "modal-open" class dynamically when open the modal and remove it when it close.
Since your modal-overlay covers the body 100%, I believe adding position:fixed to body when you display the #modal-overlay will fix your issue.

I am creating a movie app. I am facing some problem on implementing the scroll bar.
While scrolling I want the header div to remain where it is. I don't want it to disappear while scrolling down. But the div located vertically bottom to the header must be scrollable.
This can be found in amazon.in
On searching Harry Potter, this page loads
On scrolling down, you can see that the header remains fixed.
How can I implement this in React?? Please share the necessary code/documentation. Thanks!
This actually has nothing to do with React. This has to do with basic HTML and CSS knowledge.
Here is my preferred method:
<div id="navbar">...</div>
<div id="content">...</div>
#navbar {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
#content {
margin-top: /* size of navbar */ 50px;
}
You can add scroll bar in a div by using overflow property with some height.
CSS:
float:left;
width:1000px;
overflow-y: auto;
height: 100px;
HTML:
<div class="ScrollStyle">
Scrollbar Test!<br/>
Scrollbar Test!<br/>
</div>
I've got a cordova app using jquery, jquery-mobile, iscroll and iscrollview
I'm not exactly committed to any of these tools.
I've got the jquery-mobile header/footer stuck to the top and bottom of the screen just fine.
I have a scrollable div between the header and footer. It will contain variable amounts of data. Sometimes the data will be less than the height of the div and sometimes it will be greater (hence the scrolling)
Here's the tricky part. I want to stick the bottom of the scrollable div to the top of the footer. When I add stuff to the div i want the most recently added closest to the top of the footer so the top of the scrollable div looks like its growing upwards towards the bottom of the header as data is added.
Once the top of the scrollable div is fille by its content then i want to be able to scroll it.
Has anyone been able to achieve something like this?
Here's a neat little trick for you.
<div class="header"></div>
<div class="content"></div>
<div class="footer"></div>
Now the CSS
div {
width: 100%;
}
.header {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
height: 50px;
}
.footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
height: 100px;
}
/* the magic */
.content {
position: absolute;
top: 50px; /* matches height of header */
bottom: 100px; /* matches height of footer */
left: 0px;
overflow: scroll;
}
The neat thing about forcing .content to have both a top and a bottom is that it stretches the div so that it's always the proper height. IF you specified height on it, it wouldn't work, but because the height is determined by the top/bottom property, it's dynamic. I think this gets you to where you want to be.
Here's a fiddle
Edit: Here's what it looks like with content
Edit 2 - forcing content to grow from the bottom.
I'm not sure this is a good idea, and I'm not sure I would ever seriously recommend doing things this way. However, using vertical-align it's possible to force content to grow from the bottom. I suspect that it would be better to just set a margin with javascript that shrunk as content grew, but... maybe not. With all that said, here's one way to do things with CSS.
This requires a little bit of restructuring of the content div.
<div class="content">
<span class="margin"></span>
<span class="inner"></span>
</div>
And a little bit more CSS
span.left-margin {
height: 98%;
width: 0px;
display: inline-block;
}
span.inner {
width: 99%;
background-color: white;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
It looks like this with a little content
It looks like this with a lot of content
If you want the scroll bar to stick to the bottom as content comes in, you'll need to do some javascript (easy to google it).
I'm not completely happy with doing things this way because if you set height 100% or width 100%, the content div gets a scrollbar automatically from the beginning. However... it looks pretty good and should work in most (if not all) browsers.
Having issues with a site, I've read the overflow-y: can be the issue, but it doesn't appear to be. Some of the site appears to get cut off when viewing in a smaller mode, and it does not allow scrolling. Could this happen with bootstrap's css? I used a full screen image as the background and maybe its forcing every viewport to view the full image
website
I can post the CSS, but its the same as the link above. Any help is truly appreciated. At my wits end!
I was able to fix this with three changes. First, you need to change your css for #home as follows:
#home {
position: relative;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100%;
overflow: scroll;
z-index: 2;
background-size: cover;
}
This will turn scrolling on for the main area but not for the header menu. Maybe that is what you want, but if not - the second thing I changed was I moved the menu-wrap element into the home element. You should (roughly) end up with something like:
<article id="home" class="active">
<div id="menu-wrap"><!--html here --></div>
<div class="proppage"><!--html here --></div>
<!-- etc -->
</article>
That will get you closer to having the menu scroll with the page but to finally make it scroll you can't set the position to fixed. What you are actually looking for here is absolute. Note that fixed keeps it at that location in the browser where absolute keeps it at that location on the page. Your updated css with this change looks like:
#menu-wrap {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
z-index: 1000;
top: 0;
left: 0;
margin: 0 0px 0px 0px;
}
This is pretty close to what you are probably looking for. Hope that helps!
Use jquery slimscroll. I had the same problem.
<div class="slim-scroll" data-height="auto" data-disable-fade-out="true">
-----Code to scroll----
</div>
I'm developing a mobile website, and a full-screen image will appear as a floating-layer once the website is loaded.
Please see below........
A: My mobile website contains a lot of content which exceeds the windows height
B: After page loaded, a full-screen image appears as a floating-layer on top of the contents. The image exceeds the windows height
C: When user scroll down, he can see the lower part of the image, but not the website content. The bottom of the image should never detached from the screen bottom no matter how the user tries to scroll down
May I know how can I achieve C ??
Also, in situation B, sometimes the image may not exceed the screen height if the user is using a Smartphone with big screen, in this case, the image should be fixed at the top of the screen and not scrollable.
It would be better if all the above can be achieved by NOT using jquery. However, if it is a must, then it is still ok........
Many thanks.
While the general effect is doable with CSS only, you will probably need javascript to toggle the effect on and off.
The general idea is to use position: fixed and overflow: scroll on a layer containing the image, while the body has overflow: hidden. Under these conditions, you're able to scroll the contents of the overlay but not the body.
While this works on desktop, things are a little bit different on mobile where all of the content will be rendered despite the overflow: hidden on the body. A quick work-around is to apply position: fixed to the body as well. I don't know if this is intended behaviour, but it works fine in both Safari and Chrome on iOS.
Markup outlines:
<body class="no-scroll">
<section class="content">
/* content here */
</section>
<aside class="overlay">
<img src="img.jpg">
</aside>
</body>
CSS:
.no-scroll {
overflow: hidden;
position: fixed;
}
.overlay {
overflow-y: scroll;
position: fixed;
top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0;
display: none;
}
.overlay img {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
.no-scroll .overlay {
display: block;
}
With this you could use javascript to toggle the class no-scroll on the body. When it's there, the overflowing content is hidden and the overlay is visible. When it's not there, the overlay is hidden.
Here's an example of the effect (without the .no-scroll class and javascript, though, just to show that it works):
Full screen
With markup/CSS visible
Edit:
In the example above, I gave the overlay a semi-transparent background and gave the image inside of it a max-width of 100%. If you want the entire screen to be filled with the image, change the max-width to a regular width.
Edit 2:
As requested, here's a jQuery function to toggle the effect.
$(".close").click(function() {
$("body").toggleClass("no-scroll");
});
Just give a <button> or whatever the class name close and it'll toggle the effect on and off.
A client is opening our website into a popup window using JavaScript with window.open. They are turning off scrollbars and making the window a fixed height, causing the pages to not be scrollable. I control the code of the website being loaded this way, but not the calling JavaScript. Is there any way I can force the display of scrollbars?
body { overflow: auto }
should bring back the scroll bars. If it doesn't, and the scrollbar directive in fact turns off the body's scroll bars (I don't know right now whether that is the case), add a wrapper DIV in the body:
html, body { height: 100% }
.wrapper {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
overflow: auto
}
<div class="wrapper"> ......
