Please have a look at this fiddle. Code is huge to post.
I am trying to make two DIVS stick to the top and left inside a dynamically updated DIV. It is working but flickering is happening inside the DIV. How can I remove the flickering.
Please help me on this.
Code written to fix:
colFix.style.left = (holder.scrollLeft - view.offsetLeft) + "px";
heaF.style.top = (holder.scrollTop - view.offsetTop) + "px";
The flashing you are seeing is because your elements are reinserted into the DOM. In this case, and specifically in IE10, they flash from the bottom to the top because you use .appendChild, so it renders at the bottom of the page then flashes to the top once the CSS applies.
The flashing from bottom to top can be fixed by using .insertBefore:
view.insertBefore(colFix, view.firstChild);
This does not fix the problem entirely, as it will continue to flash every time it is reinserted - just at the top now.
One way to stop the flashing is to stop reinserting the entire block, but keep a wrapper in place which has its content re-populated. This may still cause a visible jump, but I leave that to you to experiment.
Previous experimentation below, kept for the sake of others who may try and answer. The above provides the answer to the core question of "How can I remove the flickering" - i.e. stop continuously reinserting layout elements.
Here is a fiddle
This changed #col-fixed and #head-fixed to position: fixed; and then in the javascript I changed lines where you appendChild to insertBefore the first child - this may not have any relevance once position: fixed was applied.
view.appendChild(heaF);
view.insertBefore(colFix, view.firstChild);
I also commented out:
colFix.style.left = colHF.style.left = (holder.scrollLeft - view.offsetLeft) + "px";
heaF.style.top = colHF.style.top = (holder.scrollTop - view.offsetTop) + "px";
You can try using iScroll plugin. link .
This will keep the scroll bar and that too with no flickers but, for this to work you will need to have two divs. Have a look into this example.
Also if not reusing iScroll,you can modify the code on similar to iScroll (removing not-required features).

I have a div that gets a 'fixed' class added to it once the user scrolls past a certain point in the parent div. The fixed class simply changes the child div from absolute positioning to fixed positioning.
However, a problem occurs when the user scrolls to a certain point when the 'fixed' class is added (as specified by the 'begin variable' in the js). The user loses the ability to scroll up or down for a number of seconds. And to make matters more complicated, this problem only occurs on the first of six parent divs that uses this code.
Here's the jquery code that adds the 'fixed' class:
var begin = 164;
$("#portfolio_window").scroll(function () {
var y = $(this).scrollTop();
if (y >= begin) {
$('.details').addClass('fixed');
} else {
$('.details').removeClass('fixed');
}
});
If I change the 'begin' variable to something like 600, the user loses the ability to scroll around 600px from the top of the div.
You can try to reproduce the problem at http://dev.zachboth.com/
Here's the easiest way that I've been able to reproduce the problem:
Use Safari
Clicking 'Various Logos' in the 'Work' section
Scrolling down quickly once the 'Various Logos' section appears
It may take several attempts to actually have the problem occur
I can explain your problem:
The problem is that on the "page" you mention being broken has you scrolling in div#portfolio_window. The position:fixed element you mentioned is positioned relative to the window. When you scroll on that element, it's trying to scroll the window (not the parent div).

The solution is a bit more involved. I'll hop back on later with a solution.
Any idea how make a layout like google plus or facebook. You can see at google plus home as example,
at the beginning, if you scroll the page in the main content, they will scroll together (friend post and sidebar), but when you scroll until the bottom of sidebar (in the right of friend post), that sidebar will stop scrolling , but the another content (friend post) will still scrolling. can explain to me how to make layout like that? sample code or demo will be very help.
Fixed positioning with CSS is a very limited approach. There are a number of ways to do this style of "fixed" areas, many of which have already been given in answers to similar questions on here (try the search above?).
One technique (which many are based on) is like so (in brief)..
Capture the browser's scrolling
Get the position from top of chosen element (x)
Check if the scrolling > x, if so apply a class to the element to fix it to a certain position.
The same will work in reverse, for example:
var target = $('#div-to-stick');
var div_position = target.offset().top;
$(window).scroll(function() {
var y_position = $(window).scrollTop();
if(y_position > div_position) {
target.addClass('fixed');
}
else {
target.removeClass('fixed');
}
}
Note: Depending on how you chose to complete the code above, the page will often "jump" as the div's position is modified. This is not always a (noticeable) problem, but you can consider getting around this by using .before with target.height() and appending a "fake" replacement div with the same height.
Hope this helps.
The new approach with css3 is reduce your effort. use single property to get it.
position:sticky;
here is a article explained it and demo.

Demo
You are looking for CSS position:fixed (for the scroll-along sidebar), you can set the location with left:[length], right:[length], top:[length], bottom:[length] and the normal width and height combos
You will need to augment it with a window resize and scroll listener that applies the position:fixed property after the window has scrolled past the top of the sidebar.
Use css property (position:fixed). This will keep the position of the div fixed even if you scroll down or scroll up.
I am making a little messaging / chat system that is working nice and fine. The problem is, the <div> which the messages are outputted to does not scroll the way I need it to.
All the new messages are added to the bottom of the div and when more are added and the scrollbar shows up, the scrolling stays at the top of the <div>. I need this to be reversed, so that the scrolling always sticks to the bottom of the <div>.
A good example of what I want would be Steam's chat windows, or even this text input which I am using to fill out the question.
As I would like to avoid jQuery, this has me completely stuck. If you could point me in the correct direction that would be great! I am not sure if HTML and CSS can handle this, or if JavaScript is necessary at all.
The Javascript code below should keep your div's scrollbar positioned at the bottom like you described:
var objDiv = document.getElementById("divExample");
objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight;
This solution and more information can be found on the link below:

I think this is a better solution:
element.scrollTop = element.scrollHeight - element.clientHeight;
For Kotlin I have used the following:
val element = view?.findViewById<ScrollView>(R.id.uidScrollElement)
element?.smoothScrollTo(0,element.measuredHeight)
Problem in brief
I have got a piece of working two dimensional scrolling code. Scrolling as such is working fine. Scrolling can be done in any direction (not like restricted to only horizontal or only vertical at a ti,e) but there are two problems -
Scrolling beyond the visible area towards top and left, does not bounce back the scrollable area.
Scrolling to right and bottom bounces back.
Problem demo - http://jsfiddle.net/sandeepan_nits/pAhjU/6/
Note - Test in webkit browsers only (Google chrome and Safari).
Solution I am looking for
Either, point out what is wrong in my code.
Or share any properly implemented working demo of both ways scroll (horizontal + vertical) using the same version of iscroll, so that I can follow the same. I am using - version 3.7.1, preferable, or using iscroll version 4, fine as well.
Or any pointers, of course, would be appreciated.
Problem Description
Please check working code here - http://jsfiddle.net/sandeepan_nits/pAhjU/6/
Note -
Test in webkit browsers only (Google chrome and Safari).
I have knowingly put everything inside the HTML section in the jsfiddle, because if I separate things completely, the scrolling does not work, and I am not sure where exactly it stops working. Thanks if you can point out.
Code
Here is the HTML -
<div class="header">
<div class='left_link'></div>Demo</div>
<div id="main_content" class="main_content">
<b><div id=scroller1><br/>
<div class='center_data'>Scrollable area</div>
<div class='center_data'>hello world!</div>
<br/>
</div></b>
</div>
Note - I know there is invalid html there - <div id=scroller1> is inside <b></b> and I am not sure why if I remove the <b></b> tags, horizontal scrolling does not work anymore - check here.
Here is the js -
var myScroll;
var a = 0;
function loaded() {
//setHeight(); // Set the wrapper height. Not strictly needed, see setHeight() function below.
// Please note that the following is the only line needed by iScroll to work. Everything else here is to make this demo fancier.
myScroll = new iScroll('scroller1', {desktopCompatibility:true});
//myScroll2 = new iScroll('scroller2', {desktopCompatibility:true});
}
// Prevent the whole screen to scroll when dragging elements outside of the scroller (ie:header/footer).
// If you want to use iScroll in a portion of the screen and still be able to use the native scrolling, do *not* preventDefault on touchmove.
document.addEventListener('touchmove', function (e) { e.preventDefault(); }, false);
// Load iScroll when DOM content is ready.
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', loaded, false);
I guess the reason is that the scrollable div is by default rendered at the bottom-right corner of the scrollable area. But I am not sure about the proper way to configure those things - how to set where to render the scrollable div inside the scollable area. So far I did not find any working demo of both ways scrolling - horizontal + vertical scrolling.
I checked out the documentation of iscroll and many working demos, but did not find any demo where scrolling can be done both ways - horizontally as well as vertically. I checked the "Accepted options are:" section under "Syntax" section in http://cubiq.org/iscroll but none of those params seem to be what I am exactly looking for.
Other things
Also, one more thing, I am not able to view the area covered by dom elements in chrome browser, while I inspect the given scroll demo. By viewing the area I mean moving the mouse over the dom inspector panel highlights the dom in the browser view. When does it not appear? I checked with validated HTML as in http://jsfiddle.net/sandeepan_nits/pAhjU/12/.
Somebody please create a tag iscroll or iscroll3 so that I can retag my question.
Update
I just want to have normal two dimensional scrolling with the scroll area being properly inside the visible screen and there should be bounce back on taking outside the screen. Right now there is no bounce back (in my jsfiddle) on scrolling towards top and left, outside screen. Bounce back happens on scrolling to right and bottom. I just want the scrolling area to be well placed inside the screen. I guess bounce back will automatically get fixed then.
I think the last version (4.1.8) on the github repo will fix your problem ;) I'm using it on some projects and it is now optimized for desktop browser ;)
Edit
From the documentation :
hScroll, used to disable the horizontal scrolling no matter what. By default you can pan both horizontally and vertically, by setting this parameter to false you may prevent horizontal scroll even if contents exceed the wrapper.
vScroll, same as above for vertical scroll.
By default, when creating a new iScroll('idOfElement') the scroll is vertical and horizontal. It can be disabled with these parameters. Dual Scroll is totally possible as this video shows it.
So, to force dual Scroll :
var myScroller = new iScroll('idOfElement', {vScroll:true, hScroll:true});
This is not a complete solution, but this might help you.
First of all, The HTML code was not properly nested, and so you were needed to put the <div> inside the <b>. I fixed up the HTML a bit and its working without the <b>
http://jsfiddle.net/Aexhz/
And with properly nested HTML and correct settings, This worked even after dividing the HTML/JS/CSS
For me, it does show some Horizontal as well as Vertical Scrolling, but i don't know if that's how you want it to be. i Edited the Class initialization line as well
myScroll = new iScroll('scroller1', {desktopCompatibility:true});
TO
myScroll = new iScroll('scroller1', {
snap: true,
momentum: false,
hScrollbar: false,
vScrollbar: false,
desktopCompatibility: true
});
This doesn't affects much but i still put that.
I will continue looking into this and update my answer if i find anything new.
I know you want to fix this using iscorll but wanted to share this with you, i had great results using it: http://jscrollpane.kelvinluck.com/#usage
It is highly customizable with css, a demo here with vertical and horizontal scroll: http://jscrollpane.kelvinluck.com/basic.html
This is a follow up question to How can I stop an IFrame reloading when I change it's position in the DOM? if you want the background.
I have an inline div <div id="leaderboard-slot"></div> (with a fixed width and height) and another div ("leaderboard-loader") further down the page with the actual content for that div.
For various reasons (see previous thread), I am unable to simply do an appendChild or similar.
Instead, I'm hoping to position leaderboard-loader such that it takes up the space "reserved" by leaderboard slot. I've used some jQuery methods to do this:
var loader = $('leaderboard-loader');
var dest = $('leaderboard-slot');
var pos = dest.getPosition();
loader.setStyle('top', pos.y + 'px');
loader.setStyle('left', pos.x + 'px');
which I fire on document load and resize. However, if other elements within the page cause a reflow, then the target div moves, but the loader doesn't.
Is there a safe way of doing this - it needs to work when I know nothing else about the page (ie I can't just make this call on any other methods that might cause a reflow, because I don't know what those are).
Any help would be much appreciated - thank you :)
If I understand your question correctly, there is no need for Javascript. Just put leaderboard-loader in front of the leaderboard-slot tag, give it position: absolute and identical width and height. If slot is a normal element, loader will float above it and cover it perfectly.
<div id="leaderboard-loader"></div><div id="leaderboard-slot"></div>
I'm starting to regret my answer now. Hopefully you can find something better than the absolute positioning workaround. But, in the spirit of kludgey solutions, you could call the repositioning script on a timer. sigh.
You could put them both in the same relative positioned, 0 margin div, with the temporary div z-indexed on top of the slow loader.
Make them both absoluely positioned in the parent, not the window, at 0:0 and the same size.
You can use opacity and fade one in as you fade the other one out, or just swap visibility:hidden and visible for the two elements when you are ready..
