Is there a way to display the vertical scrollbar immediately after the page loads using javascript? I have a jquery slide toggle animation that, when activated, makes the vertical scrollbar appear because the toggle animation makes the page longer. The problem is that when the scrollbar appears, the document elements "spasm" or "shake". If the vertical scrollbar appears before the jquery animation is activated then I won't have the problem.
Update: overflow-y:scroll; does the trick without much compatibility issues!
Depending on your current function, you can use jQuery (or plain JavaScript) to find the current max-height (that the element can expand to without making the page longer), and simply apply that height (or one that's smaller) with overflow: hidden. Once the new element has been successfully added, the overflow can be re-set to overflow: auto; (or overflow: scroll;).
Or you can set position to fixed on elements animated at begin to avoid scrollbars...
Can you create a jsfiddle.net with a little example of your code ?

I have a background image as can be seen here https://www.nova969.com.au/win/novas-sending-you-ed-sheeran
The image is background image to the body.
When the off-canvas menu is opened, the background image shifts.
I will like to keep the background image to stay in the exact location where it was before opening the background image.
You will notice the following css is there for the body
body.has-background {
background-image: url(https://d2nzqyyfd6k6c7.cloudfront.net/nova-skins/972409-novafm-edsheeran-platwinpage-bg.jpg);
}
When the off-canvas opens, it causes background position shift. I need to ensure that the background does not shift. Can someone help me in getting this resolved?
Combining the two images into one is not an option for our case at this moment.
Also, to replicate,
Go to the link using any browser in Desktop
scroll a bit down the page.
Open the off-canvas menu (the one on the left-hand top side)
You will notice the shift of the background
If i've understood your problem correctly then the following should fix it.
Edit: it seems to only be an issue on devices over 1200px wide? If so, then apply these changes using #media (min-width: 1200px).
Make the following declaration additions to the following selectors:
.disabledInteraction {
position: relative;
}
(or delete the position: fixed; from .disabledInteraction)
and then:
.header-fixed .site-wrapper {
margin-top: 0 !important;
}
The problem lies with fixing the position of body. If you remove this declaration or change it to position: relative, you can see this stops the image moving around problem.
The problem then is that the text moves up the screen, which is caused by some JS changing the margin to -268px. Adding margin: 0 !important overrides this, but if you can you should stop the JS from adding this negative margin.
Hope this helps!
As you might of figured out, this is a standard behavior of a website. Content shifts as your available area shifts (scroll is part of visible area) causing your whole content of the page to shift 17 pixels? (Whatever the scroll is).
What you need to do is append a scroll once the sidebar is open.
I had a play with your website and it works, however there must be some javascript which removes the scroll bar.
I was going to fine the file for you, but you're returning too many files and I don't have time to go through all of them.
Selector:
body > div.site-wrapper.off-canvas-menu-overlay
Add overflow-y: scroll to that div using javascript, on sidebar open event, or when you add it in CSS make sure whatever is manipulating that Element once the sidebar is open that it stops as currently it seems to append styles on open event.
I guess you mean the "hidden" menu on the left side of the page.
The background shifts because the scrollbar is removed when you open the menu.
You could change your code so the scrollbar stays visible, or shift the background image to accomodate for this change. I'm not sure if you can do that so it will work without a flicker in every browser, so your best bet is to keep that scrollbar visible.
I'm making a dynamic page, in HTML/CSS using Javascript and jQuery. The height of this page can change, and a scrollbar can appear or disappear. Also, I want the content to be centered. To achieve that, I use margin: 0 auto;. But when the scrollbar shows itself (or hides itself), the page moves a little on the side.
How can I prevent it from moving left and right ?
EDIT
Here's a jsfiddle to see what the problem is (sorry, the content is in French):
http://jsfiddle.net/r4jspomr/
You can click on the titles to extend/retract the content under it
it is default Behavior of browsers, you can disable scrollbar using the following code and then use a beautiful custom-scrollbar like this
$("body").css("overflow", "hidden");
I was looking for some kind of code similar to Gmail's Chat on Gmail's Page: a drop-down menu that pushes everything else that is down to the chat, but for some reason I couldn't see the page's source and I haven't found the same code in any other page. Does anybody know some page with similar code?
Regards!
You can use jQuery's native slideDown function to show hidden elements that will push content down below them, depending on your slideDown element's CSS positioning and float.
http://api.jquery.com/slideDown/
You can have a which height is set to 0px or auto to make it expand/collapse.
You can also give a sliding effect by gradually increasing/decreasing the height of the div.
As long as it's not positioned absolute, it will push the content below.
I have a web page that has content which extends past the right edge of the browser window. I set overflow-x: hidden on <body> to turn off the bottom scrollbar, but I can still scroll horizontally with the trackpad, which is not what I want.
Is there any way to prevent the browser from scrolling horizontally?
As a side note: Safari 4.0.4 only scrolls horizontally sometimes, and the scrolling feels "sticky" and "jumpy," whereas Firefox always smoothly scrolls horizontally.
you could try to set in CSS:
html{
overflow-x: hidden;
}
instead of use body selector.
I tried that and works in firefox.
I think the real question is, why do you have your content overflowing out of the intended size of the page? Is this content that you don't want users to actually see? In that case, put it in a div somewhere and set it's display to none. That would avoid the overflow issue entirely.
If there is a legit reason you want it to overflow the container, then set the size of the container explicitly, then the overflow-x to hidden. I haven't tested it, but that should prevent the current behavior. If not, try using a div, rather than the body tag. The browsers may be acting strangely because it's working on the body tag itself.
I would go into Chrome and open the developer tools on a desktop. Remove the overflow-x property. Then proceed to delete each parent element on your page. When you see that the horizontal scroll bar disappears, you know you have found your problem. Then dive into that element. My bet is you have a width of 100% and than a margin put onto it. Remove the margin if that is the case.
If all else fails, you could use Javascript to constantly force the browser to scroll to the left using window.scrollTo(xpos, ypos). For xpos you'll want to use 0 and ypos you'll want to get the user's current scroll position assuming you want to allow vertical scrolling.
You could put your function call either in the window.onscroll event handler, or in a javascript interval that runs every 100 ms or so. Up to you. If you need code examples just ask.
This would be better to understand if you had an example.
is this a long url or something with no whitespaces? Do you have white-space:nowrap; set on the element?
If you have a container with a defined size (one that fits in the viewport), the text should adhere correctly, (unless it's a long line with no spaces)
Old discussion, but it could be of use to people looking for the right answer !
Set "overflow:hidden" on the parent div of the element that is wider than the browser window (not html or body as you would normaly do), that will stop the scroll with de pad or the arrows pad...
whenever the page's height is larger than the web browser window a scrollbar will appear to the right so you can scroll down/up in your page.
could scrollbar be displayed with javascript/jquery all the time even if there is no need for it? (has to do with a layout issue i've got)
You can do that even without javascript, it is a CSS property:
overflow: scroll
But this will also always show a scrollbar at the bottom. Afaik you cannot avoid this.
It might be that this confuses the user somehow as normally he is not used to the fact that a scrollbar is shown even if he cannot scroll.
Before you use this solution, you should try to fix your layout issue.
If you give the appropriate container element the style `overflow: scroll' then it'll have scrollbars. You can do that with jQuery if you like:
$('#containerId').css({overflow: 'scroll'});
Or of course you can do it in a CSS file, or even right on the element itself. You'll have to figure out which element to do that to; post some code if you need advice.
Don't need javascript. Just add the css
body{
overflow: scroll;
}
