I'm working on a site that uses CSS3 animations.
I've noticed on iOS the comic captions 'jump' which I believe is caused by the address bar changing one of the window properties used to calculate the caption position.
Source code is available here: https://gitlab.com/ashleyconnor/adventurersclubcomic
If I'm correct in my assumption. Is there an accurate way to offset the iOS address bar so there is no jump (sudden increase) in any of these values?
I cloned your repo, and was able to reproduce the jitter on window resize in both Firefox and Chrome. After a few minutes of debuggine, I think the problem is actually in your index.js file.
You are completely refreshing the enllax plugin every time the windows resizes. This appears to be unnecessary.
If you remove the excess calls to the enllax function like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
// function enllax() {
$('#start').enllax({
type: 'foreground',
ratio: 0.5,
direction: 'vertical'
});
// $(window).scroll();
// };
$('#begin').click(function() {
$('html, body').animate({
scrollTop: $("#panel1").offset().top
}, 1000);
});
// enllax();
// And trigger the scroll event on resize to deal with changes
// in the responsive layout
$(window).on('resize', $(window).trigger('scroll'));
});
With that update, the jitter stops on resize in all the browsers I have installed. It remains to be tested in iOS because I don't have any Apple hardware to test it on, but I suspect it should fix the problem there as well.

On some of our pages, we've got some legacy JQuery that detects when a page is scrolling and then sets the height of the main element, to position the footer correctly on both mobile and desktop:
function scrollPage(event){
base.keepMainMarginOverFooter();
// other functions
}
$(window).on('scroll',scrollPage);
This is the offending function:
keepMainMarginOverFooter:function() {
// Adjusts container height so footer is clickable but can also be revealed on mobile
var h = 0;
$('.fp-section.visible').children().each(function() {
h+= $(this).outerHeight()
});
$('#main').css({ height: h });
}
And it seems that there's a bug in Chrome (Version 61.0.3163.100) that seems to trigger if you're actively scrolling during any event which triggers the above code (we also have some JQuery functions that , which automatically takes you to the end of the #main section, ie the bottom of the page. Or at least I guess it's a bug - this doesn't seem to happen in Safari (Version 11.0 12604.1.38.1.7), and it doesn't happen if you wait a couple of seconds after page load before scrolling.
It's tempting to remove this function for something simpler, but it's in the middle of enough dependencies that that wouldn't be trivial.
Is this a known issue with a decent workaround?
The website: http://negativgraffiti.hu/uj/
If you jumps from one page to another, every page has a different height, but they are all in one div, just they are not visible all the time.
I'm resizing the parent div everytime to the current page's height (not the full code, just a sample):
var magassag = jQuery("#post-5");
var egymagas = jQuery(".elsofo").height();
if (i == 1) {
magassag.animate({
height: egymagas
}, 100 );
}
it's working fine, but when i test it on tablet/mobile the height is ruins when i change the orientation, and i don't know why.
Use $(window).on('resize', fn) to detect window resizing.
$(window).on('resize', function() {
// re-animate the height for the current page
});
Although this works fine for tablet resizing, it will be very inefficient for desktop users who are resizing the window with their mouse. It is good to throttle the resize callback for that reason.
// Use `throttle` from any of the various throttle libraries available.
$(window).on('resize', throttle(function() {
// re-animate the height for the current page
}));
i thought this would be an very frequent question, but i actually did not find any answer to it.
i am making a webapp/website for mobile.
When the user rotates his phone, i want to hide the whole body just before the page is rotated, with that ugly deformation/transition. Then, when this transition is done, show the body again.
here i have done a minimal version of the code that works on android.
there is a background image from loremPixel on the body, and a red background on the html tag.
the expected result is: never seing the image rotate. only a red screen (not rotating either)
thanks for any help.
ps: i think i have narrowed the problem down to the orientationchange event being fired after the rotation on ios, and before(as i would expect) on android
Random idea.
$(window).resize(function() {
$("#wrapper").css("display","none");
if(this.resizeTO) clearTimeout(this.resizeTO);
this.resizeTO = setTimeout(function() {
$(this).trigger('resizeEnd');
}, 500);
});
$(window).bind('resizeEnd', function() {
$("#wrapper").css("display","block");
});
Start resize, hide wrapper. No resize in 0.5 seconds, show.

I have a JS feature on the following site that is working just fine in Firefox but not in Safari: http://rossbolger.com/kids/light-stories/
The feature slides out a grid of thumbnails called #image-thumbs when the mouse hovers over the container called #hit-area. It works (at least in Firefox) by first changing #image_thumbs height from '48px' to 'auto', the height is then measured using jQuery's height(). This height is stored in a variable and then using jQuery's css() it is given back to the #image-thumbs when the mouse is over.
The code on the site looks a little something like this:
// Thumbnails Nav Reveal and Hide Scripts
var thumbs_height = 1,
thumbs = $('#image-thumbs'),
thumbs_original_height = thumbs.css('height');
// Slide Up Thumbs
(function revealThumbs() {
// On hover let the thumbs become their full height
$('#image-thumbs #hit-area').hover(function(){ // Mouse over
// Get the unrestricted height of the thumbs
thumbs.css('height', 'auto');
thumbs_height = thumbs.height();
// then put it back to what it was so we can animate it using CSS3 transition
thumbs.css('height', 'inherit');
// delay 0.1s before triggering the change in height (time for the calculations to complete)
setTimeout( function() { thumbs.css('height', thumbs_height ) }, 100 );
}, function(){ // Mouse out
hideThumbs();
});
})();
// Hide thumbs
function hideThumbs(){
thumbs.css('height', thumbs_original_height );
};
The reason for measuring the unrestricted height and passing it back as a pixel value, rather than simply setting the height to 'auto', is to create a sliding effect via CSS3 (i.e. transition: height 0.5s). The transition only takes place if the affected attribute goes from one numeric value to another.
Thanks for any help bug testing this. I haven't even looked at other browsers yet.
All the best,
Laurence
Okay, so I've worked it out...
In the javascript document (scripts.js on the site) there was a function higher up the page calling the hideThumbs() function. So it wasn't working because the variables in hideThumbs() hadn't been declared at that point. Funny that it should still work in Firefox and IE9!
I've moved all this code to a point before that other function and the problem is now resolved. So far I've only done this locally. I'll update the site in the link above later.
I am trying to re-create website with parallax effect using JavaScript. That means that I have two or more layers, that are moving different speeds while scrolling.
In my case I'm moving only one layer, the other one remains static:
layer 1 = website text;
layer 2 = element background;
for this I'm using simple source code (with jQuery 1.6.4):
var docwindow = $(window);
function newpos(pos, adjust, ratio){
return ((pos - adjust) * ratio) + "px";
}
function move(){
var pos = docwindow.scrollTop();
element.css({'top' : newpos(pos, 0, 0.5)});
}
$(window).scroll(function(){
move();
});
The Problem:
- All calculations are done right and the effect "works" as expected. But there is some performance glitch under some browsers (Chrome MAC/Windows, Opera MAC, IE, paradoxically not Safari).
What do I see during scrolling?
- While scrolling the background moves in one direction together with scroll, but it seems to occasionally jump few pixels back and then forth, which creates very disturbing effect (not fluid).
Solutions that I tried:
- adding a timer to limit scroll events
- using .animate() method with short duration instead of .css() method.
I've also observed, that the animation is smooth when using .scrollTo method (scrollTo jQuery plugin). So I suspect that there is something wrong with firing scroll events (too fast).
Have you observed the same behavior?
Do you know, how to fix it?
Can you post a better solution?
Thanks for all responses
EDIT #1:
Here you can find jsfiddle demonstration (with timer): http://jsfiddle.net/4h9Ye/1/
I think you should be using scrollTop() instead and change the background position to fixed. The problem is that setting it to absolute will make it move by default when you scroll up or down.
The flicker occurs because the position is updated as part of the default browser scroll and updated again as part of your script. This will render both positions instead of just the one you want. With fixed, the background will never move unless you tell it so.
I've created a demo for you at http://jsfiddle.net/4h9Ye/2/ .
