I have developed a site that has a fixed footer and header.
The content is also fixed (but that is only because the footer and header can be hidden, but I won't be showing that in my example).
The issue I have is with iPhones and iPads. They are two issues I have had.
Once is it allowing me to drag the header and footer past the confines of the body/html showing whitespace (no idea why they do this) and the other issue is it stopping scrolling as soon as I let go with my finger.
The latter seems to be solvable by doing this:
overflow-x: hidden;
overflow-y: scroll;
-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
Although I have read that this is not a supported CSS attribute, it does seem to do the trick.
The second issue I have tried to solve with JavaScript by making the header and footer non-scrollable, but it doesn't seem to work properly.
The JavaScript is simple enough:
function disableElasticScroll(e) {
e.preventDefault();
};
which I can put on an element like this:
ontouchmove="disableElasticScroll(event)"
This does not have the desired effect.
I have set up a codepen to highlight the issue. If you have an ipad, have a look. First drag the content inside the .content area. That works nicely (thanks the the -webkit solution). If you then try and drag the .header or .footer you will notice that you can't drag it and no scrolling is happening (again this is good and is due to the JavaScript), but if you try to then scroll the .content again, you will notice that it drags the entire page and does the elastic scroll rubbish.

There is a way to do this so that you don't have to fix the scrolling container. Try positioning your header and footer with a fixed position then padding the body of your page by the height of those elements. This way your page will scroll normally without any hacks. It might look something like this:
body {
padding-top: 60px;
padding-bottom: 40px;
}
header.global {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 60px;
}
footer.global {
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 40px;
}
html, body {
position: fixed;
}
try setting this css property and see if it works.
It solves the elastic scrolling effect on the body.

I'm trying to use the Bootstrap affix() plugin. I want the navbar to pin to the top of the screen when I scroll. here is what i have so far:
http://jsfiddle.net/zncud7md/2/
The issue is the content below navbar shifts (tiny bit of inch downwards) when the affix class triggers in. I even tried adding the:
#header.affix + #body { padding-top: 75px; } that i found on other sources but didnt work for me.
I'm unable to find a way around this. Any ideas how can i prevent this issue??
Thanks!!
Bootstrap affix acts like sticky positioning so that if you scroll, you can have an element stick to a fixed position (http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#affix).
Instead, you can simplify your code by setting your header position to fixed at top:0 and pad the top of your body.
#header {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
z-index: 9999;
}
#body {
padding-top: 75px;
}

Im trying to get this scrolling effect i have seen on the website http://www.unheap.com , if you scroll to the bottom or to the right you'll notice that you can't scroll past whatsoever. Most website including this one allow you to scroll past slightly with a lot of resistance but I'm trying to replicate the example above where you can't scroll past at all. Anyone know of any plugins or methods on how to go about creating this effect?
The actual website itself is 100% the width and height of the page and any scrolling that occurs is accomplished via an absolutely positioned container with overflow: scroll.
EDIT
The actual overflow is set on the .grid element, which is inside the absolutely positioned .container element.
EDIT #2
The author is also using jScrollPane, but you can prevent the bouncing effect simply by making your body 100% width and height and absolutely positioning a container that has overflow set to scroll.
EDIT #3
See the attached code snippet - (you may have to copy and paste it into it's own HTML file because of the way SO displays snippets). There is no bouncing.
* { margin:0; padding:0; }
html,
body { width: 100%; height: 100%; overflow:hidden;}
body>div { height: 50vh; overflow: auto; padding: 10px; background: #000; position: absolute; width: 100px; top: 100px; left: 100px;}
body>div>div { height: 1000px; background: #0f0;}
<div>
<div>scrollable content</div>
</div>
I looked at many answers here on SO but none worked for me.

My problem there is the login span disappearing on zooming (I can't see it on scroll right)
#fixedContainer
{
background-color: #ddd;
position: fixed;
width: 500px;
height: 100px;
top: 0px;
margin-left: 20px;
}
.login
{
float: right;
}
I would prefer a CSS solution but am OK with a Javascript solution too.
Add these css attributes to your #fixedContainer selector:
overflow-x: auto;
max-width: 100%;
I'm trying to achieve an effect similar to the one seen here on Dropbox's landing page. Notice that there's a link at the bottom of your browser viewport ('learn more'). This is always at the bottom of the page on first load. However, it's not fixed to the bottom of the window as you can scroll past it.
Any idea how to achieve this? A CSS or jquery solution is fine.
It's a link within a div which has the following CSS (the div's):
position: absolute;
bottom: 50px;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
The important parts there are position:absolute and bottom:50px
I have a jQuery slider which needs to be centered in my body; this slider acts as a changing background (fades into one another). I have no overflow problem on my computer (iMac), but on my nexus 7, my body is much wider to fit the whole image. In both cases, I have the latest version of Firefox.
Here's my CSS:
#grosse_photo {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -552px;
height: 597px;
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
z-index: -1;
}
My images are all 1904px wide x 597px high.
I've tried making #grosse_photo relative and absolute position my images from there, but they don't center. I've also tried overflow-x: hidden to all elements (#grosse_photo, body and html) but don't seem to get anywhere.
If it helps any, this is the jQuery animation I'm using:

It has served me well in the past, but this is the first time I'm using it as a background.
