Increase Scroll-bar width in Firefox - html / css - javascript

I saw some questions about this, but those questions don't gave a solution that could work for me.
I want to increase the Scrollbar width of a div. The div size is huge, so a horizontal scrollbar has appeared. Now I want to increase the width of that scrollbar for more flexibility.
So I search and found following link with code that works on Chrome browser.
JSFiddle
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 2em;
height: 2em
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-button {
background: #ccc
}
But this doesn't work on Firefox. I tried to replace the webkit with moz , didn't work either.
I also found that writting following code in userContent.css file of firefox can increase scrollbar width, but 1) I didn't find that userContent.css file in windows 7. 2) I can't go to users' home to tell them how to increase scrollbar width manually :P That's not a solution.
/* Increase width of VERTICAL SCROLLBAR */
scrollbar[orient="vertical"], scrollbar[orient="vertical"] thumb, scrollbar[orient="vertical"] scrollbarbutton { min-width: 35px !important; -moz-appearance: none !important; }
/* Increase width of HORIZONTAL SCROLLBAR */
scrollbar[orient="horizontal"], scrollbar[orient="horizontal"] thumb, scrollbar[orient="horizontal"] scrollbarbutton { min-height: 35px !important; -moz-appearance: none !important; }
Is there any way so that I can increase scrollbar width in both Chrome & Firefox?? (Forget IE) I can use html css javascript & jquery solutions, but no scrollbar plugin. I've to convert the native scrollbar from browsers.

Although chrome supports changing the scrollbar width using -webkit prefixes none of the other browsers do. Some allow the scrollbar to be styled so the colours are different but as far as I am aware you cannot change the width.
Instead, if it is absolutely essential you change the scrollbar, you will need to use a JavaScript solution.
There are many solutions out there - too many to document in an answer on SO - but here are a few links to get you started:

Hide scrollbars in Quasar/Vue - overflow hidden not working

I am using Quasar/VueJS for development. How can I remove the outermost scrollbar (this is for the actual body of the page).
So annoyed that I have already tried putting overflow:hidden everywhere but it is still there.
Since I have a scrollbar for my sidebar, I just dont want another scrollbar to be beside it, as it can be confusing for the user. As you can see, I am working on adding another scrollbar just beside the actual body of the page.
How can I get rid of the outermost scrollbar?
Codepen:
https://codepen.io/kzaiwo/pen/bGVrweM?editable=true&editors=101%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fquasar.dev%2Flayout%2Fdrawer
Working with Quasar, checkout the docs, more specific this class: no-scrollbar. apply this on the element of concern.
Adding the following to your main styling will make the scroll bar go away without losing the scroll functionality:
::-webkit-scrollbar {
display: none;
}
Be aware that this will not work for firefox and IE. More info:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/::-webkit-scrollbar
.scroll {
overflow: hidden;}
Add this class to your css
<q-layout container>
Remove container from q-layout.
<q-layout>
https://quasar.dev/layout/layout#qlayout-api
You can hide the scrollbar without loosing the scroll behavior with css...
/* Hide scrollbar */
::-webkit-scrollbar {
display: none;
}
This works on chrome for sure, probably on Safari aswell, not sure (probably not) if IE and Firefox.

Scroll not working on Android Chrome only

For some reason scroll doesn't work on Android Devices in Chrome browser only.
You can see the site at Peshkuiarte.com/mobile
I have tried:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('body').css('touch-action', 'auto');
});
I can't seem to figure it out ... Any help would be greatly appreciated
By scroll do you mean dragging the page with your finger on mobile?
You've set -webkit-user-drag: none; as an inline style for body, which might be the cause.
It's a Webkit-specific property:
CSS property: -webkit-user-drag
Description
Specifies that an entire element should be draggable instead of its contents.
Syntax
-webkit-user-drag: auto | element | none;
Values
auto The default dragging behavior is used.
element The entire element is draggable instead of its contents.
none The element cannot be dragged at all.
It's supported by Chrome 1-17 and Safari 3-5.1: http://www.browsersupport.net/CSS/-webkit-user-drag
we had same problem on Chrome 40.0... and we fixed with css only solution. Maybe it is not clean but works for us:
#media screen and (max-width: 1024px) {
html, body {
z-index: 0 !important;
overflow: scroll !important;
}
}
In my case, I have found touch-action: none added on body element.
Removing it enabled scrolling in android chrome.
Summary
The touch-action CSS property specifies whether, and in
what ways, a given region can be manipulated by the user (for
instance, by panning or zooming).
Source: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/touch-action
Hope it helps people dealing with legacy code :)
e.preventDefault
function handlerSwipe(e){
e.preventDefault();
if(handlerTouch){
if(e.changedTouches[0].clientX>=110)
toggle.checked=true;
else toggle.checked=false;
}
return false;
}
window.addEventListener("touchmove", handlerSwipe, false);
This was the code i used for creating a swipeable navigation drawer because of this scrolling was not working .Just removing the e.preventDefault(); from the above code solved my problem
I am not really sure about the question, you say "scroll" but the accepted answer is talking about "drag". So I am going to give you what I think you are asking (not being able to scroll within an area on a mobile).
The simplest solution is a CSS one rather than a JS one. If you have an area on your page that you need to scroll, for example a code block on a tech blog you can set position relative on the area and have overflow-x set to auto. On the body you will need to have it not move when you touch the screen.
pre {
white-space: pre-wrap;
overflow-y: auto;
position: relative;
}
html,body{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
}
You can see this solution working on my blog if you look at the code snippet sections and try and scroll on them via chrome mobile.(http://fullstack.life/mapping_arrays.html)
pointer-events
I came across another issue today and I'm going to leave this here for reference. If the element with the overflow-y: scroll; either sets its pointer-events: none; or inherits it, then it won't work either. On this layer, pointer events need to be re-enabled with:
pointer-events: auto;
Here is the fix for this issue that worked for me.
When you call the niceScroll function $("body").niceScroll(); in your javascript class, it appears to add an inline style of: overflow-y: visible on your body element (because it is inline, it overrides any previous overflow: hidden that you may have written in your css file.
Simply add overflow: hidden ! important in the css of your body element.
Also, make sure that your html element has style of
overflow: hidden;
touch-action: none;

Is there a workaround for the IE11 table cell padding bug? [duplicate]

It seems I've stumbled on an annoying Internet Explorer 11 layout bug. (Ugh, I thought these days were behind us.)
In the following example, the padding on the right table cell disappears when you hover over it in IE11:
http://jsfiddle.net/xx4Z4/
This seems to arise because of an incredibly specific CSS scenario:
The element uses display: table-cell
The element uses percentage-based padding, e.g., padding: 0 5%
A subelement adds text-decoration: underline when the parent element is hovered over
If you change any of those three things, the problem goes away.
This seems to be an IE11 bug, but I'm wondering: Can anyone think of a workaround for this problem without abandoning display: table-cell and percentage-based padding?
Again a IE11 problem that seems so unusual. I see that the percentage padding is not even calculated and is not applied in the layout. However the text is still padded according to the padding percentage. So i would assume the text is positioned with the padding but after the positioning the percentage padding is "disabled".
I can't tell you why this happens. But if you really want to fix these you might want to use these quick fixes.
Use margin
Because the percentage bug only occurs on the padding of a table-cell, you can actually use a margin on the span itself.
span
{
margin-left: 10%;
}
and ofcourse reset the padding of the sides:
div.table-cell {
display: table-cell;
padding: 20px 0;
}
This "solution" is not as dynamic as with percentage padding on the table-cell itself.
Why not?
It's because the percentage takes is value from it's parent element, the table-cell. Where as the table-cell did take it's percentage value based on the tabel. Now when you would just use left-margin: 5%;. It would be half of the space as it should be. This is because it take the 10% on the table-cell width. Where the table-cell width is table width devided by its cells(table width / table cell).
So to fix that i did 5 times the amount of cells (5 * 2 in this case), which would result in the right percentage.
However this is not dynamic when you want to add more cells.
jsFiddle
Use border
Use border which its position is "reserved" before the padding is resetted.
Reserved border
span
{
border-bottom: 1px solid transparent;
}
Change property that doesn't need re-calculation of position; color
div.table-cell-bug:hover span
{
border-bottom-color: black;
}
Now note that there will still be no padding in the layout. As soon as a property is assigned which has not been calculated before the padding did reset(the same time the text position is determed) the positions will be re-calculated.
jsFiddle
I hope one of these quick fixes work for you.
I see you sended a bug report to MS. Keep us up-to-date when you get a reply, i would appreciate it :)
Strange, no one mentioned to set table-layout:fixed; It's really important, otherwise the padding/width won't be calculated correctly on IE (and some other weird side-effects, depending on the use case), especially when you are using images inside it.
<style>
.table { display:table; table-layout:fixed; }
.table-cell { display:table-cell; }
</style>
<div class="table">
<div class="table-cell"></div>
<div class="table-cell"></div>
<div class="table-cell"></div>
</div>
Adding invisible top and bottom borders seems to fix the problem.
a {
border: solid rgba(0,0,0,0);
border-width: thin 0;
}
This prevents the anchors from moving on hover or focus.
I use rgba(0,0,0,0) instead of transparent for better compatibility with old IE which displays transparent in colour while rgba is rendered invalid and not displayed at all.
We had a similar scenario where none of the solutions above worked.
Instead we animate the width of our affected div after the page has loaded:
if (!!navigator.userAgent.match(/Trident\/7\./)){
$("#karina-rosner2").animate({'width': '20.1%'},1);
$("#karina-rosner2").animate({'width': '20%'},1);
}
This forces IE11 to recalculate the div's relative padding value and solved our problem well.
This can be "helpfully" solved by setting the paddding css-rules like this ->
element:hover,
element:active,
element:focus {
// padding example
padding-left: 1.5%;
}
Rememeber to set this only for IE since it can make all normal browser behave like a disco.
EDIT: Flexbox works for IE 10 and above so this "solution" is only needed for ie 9 and below.
These are all really good answers, and the media query option works well to identify only IE which has this problem with display:table-cell
What I did that I found worked well was employ vertical-align as a great way to direct the text contained within the display:table-cell element to where I wanted it to reside. Usually vertical-align doesn't do much to formatting, UNLESS it is in a table.
Here is my simplified HTML:
<li id="table-cell-element">
<a href="#">
<img src="event.png"/>
<small>Register for Event</small>
</a>
</li>
And here is the CSS:
#media screen and (-ms-high-contrast: active), (-ms-high-contrast: none) {
li {vertical-align:middle; display:table-cell; width:15%; font-size:1.2em; line-height:1.2em; padding:2%; margin:0;}
li a {display:inline-block;}
li img {display:inline-block; vertical-align:middle; padding-right:5px; float:left; max-with:30px;}
small {display:block; font-size:60%; font-weight:bold; color:#333;}
}
You may also have to adjust the li a:hover {line-height} depending on what is in your CSS for those elements
Also, if you want this to work for IE 9 and below I suggest using conditional comments that add an "ie" class to the <html> tag and then create an IE9 style sheet. Thankfully the styling required for IE9 is relatively the same. But I only tested through IE9 and I am uncertain of your results for IE8 and IE7.

White space below div in Chrome, but not Firefox (HTML5)

I'm working on a small JavaScript library to make dynamic grids on websites. Anyway, things are going pretty well, except sometimes I notice a sizable white space at the bottom of my div in Chrome. This tends to pop up in two situations:
1) When the browser is open to it's full window size.
2) If the grid elements are small.
Here is the page style where it happens most.
Now, this is a problem because the JavaScript code is written specifically to take the window size, and create elements of the correct size to fill the screen. It works perfectly in Firefox.
If you check that out with Chrome with a full window, you'll notice a white space at the bottom. Then, if you resize the window to half-size or so, it disappears. Also relevant, this issue is not happening in Firefox at - no extra white space anywhere.
Here is a JS fiddle that should recreate the problem. Same deal, white space in Chrome (might need to resize the view window) and no white space in Firefox.
Any ideas out there about what might be the issue? I've read a lot of similar posts and poked around with a lot of the standard problems, such as border-box, vertical-align and things like that. I haven't gotten anywhere though.
EDIT: I've also done some debugging in the console. For example, checking the window height versus the height of the div versus the height of all the elements combined leads nowhere.
$(window).height()
=> 656
$('#patchwork').height()
=> 656
Patchwork.dimensions.Y
=> 656
Patchwork.patchSize.Y * Patchwork.patchCount.Y
=> 656
This is basically saying that everything thinks and expects to take up all 656 pixels, but for some reason it is not actually filling the entire space.
With a window height of 754 I got 13 patches, each with a height of 56 (outline excluded).
This tells me that you might not calculate the amount of patches per total height, 754 / 50 = 15.08.
If you do that instead and then spread the reminder (4 in this case) equal among the patches (in this case every 7:th patch), you will get both a full page and patches being as close to their set size as possible.
Notes:
Your span tag, <span class="white-space-remover"style="font-size:0px;visibility:hidden">.</span>, need to have a space char after the last qoute sign in the class name and the 's' in style (one never know how that effects the rest)
This link has some good reading about round-ups in css: Are the decimal places in a CSS width respected?
It also looks like the outline acts different in different browsers. Try drop that one and use a border instead, with border-box;
// add this instead of outline
.patch {
width: 50px;
border: 1px solid #fff
box-sizing: border-box;
}
/*
"border-box" makes the element have a total size of its set width
which means setting the border size to 1 will not change the
total width of the element, it will change the "inner width" to 48
*/
// to support IE7 (and lower) use this to get 50px element
.patch {
width: 48px;
border: 1px solid #fff
}
/*
and if you will add padding you need to re-calc the width as
paddings will affect the total width in the same way border does
*/

jQuery scrollTop() does not work in scrolling DIV on mobile browsers, alternatives?

I am trying to scroll to a specific location in a scrolling DIV. Right now I am using a pixel offset with the jQuery scrollTop() function which works great on desktop browsers but it does not work on android mobiles browsers with the exception of Google's Chrome Android browser (do not have an iOS device to test if that works). All the solutions I have found are for page (window) scrolling and not for scrolling in a DIV, anyone have any suggestions on what else I can use to accomplish the same task?
Here is a example:
http://jsfiddle.net/aQpPc/
http://jsfiddle.net/aQpPc/embedded/result/
Other things I have tried that work in desktop browsers:
document.getElementById('ID_of_element_in_a_DIV').scrollIntoView();
document.getElementById('ID_of_DIV').scrollTop = 200;
EDIT 3/11/13:
This is a know android browser issue: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=19625
One user in the bug report suggested a workaround:
because the issue only seems to appear when the overflow property is
set to scroll, you can first set it to 'hidden', set the scrollTop
property, then reset it back to 'scroll' (or auto). The scrollTop
property seems to be honored when the element is re-rendered with
scrollbars. It's not clear if this has any unexpected side-effects,
but "it works on my machine!"
This worked for me:
setTimeout( function() {
$(div).scrollTop(0)
}, 500 );
A workaound that worked for me: first, temporarily set the overflow property to 'hidden', then set the scrollTop property, then set the overflow property back to 'scroll' (or auto). The scrollTop value seems to be kept intact and honored when the overflow property is set back to 'scroll'. This was a pretty trivial workaround that worked on all browsers I tested on (desktop and mobile). I didn't test it exhaustively, and I didn't test with transitions in place, so there may be side-effects that I haven't encountered... Your mileage may vary - but it's an easy thing to try.
I found the answer here http://blog.jonathanargentiero.com/jquery-scrolltop-not-working-on-mobile-devices-iphone-ipad-android-phones/
Mobile phones doesn't understand $('html,body') so u can do the following for mobile
if(navigator.userAgent.match(/(iPod|iPhone|iPad|Android)/)) {
window.scrollTo(0)
} else {
// default `$('html,body')` code for scrolling
}
OR
simply use $('body') instead of $('html, body').
rather than using the scroll, scrollTo, or scrollTop methods (which give me problems in mobile), I recommend setting an ID on your top DOM element (like #top), and just using:
document.getElementById("top").scrollIntoView();
that works the best for me so far across all devices and browsers.
I have a couple solutions for you to try. You will have to test them yourself, as I have not tried them in a mobile browser before, but here they are:
Use jQuery's .css() method (or .animate() depending on what your eventual goal us) to adjust the top margin (note: you would have to change the overflow to hidden and wrap the text in an inner div, which would be the element whose to margin you are adjusting)
Do the same thing as in the first solution, except set the embedded div's position to relative and adjust it's top attribute.
Let me know if you need help with any if this or have any more questions about this. Good luck! :)
Note that although I have not tested these in mobile before they are based on CSS standards, not jQuery functions, so they should work.
Temporarily setting the overflow property to 'hidden', as recommended in #Allan Nienhuis' answer, does not work on Android 4.0.3, for instance (which is, e.g., what the Kindle Fire 2s are running) - when you set overflow back to scroll, the element scrolls back to the top.
Alternatives:
Roll your own scrolling via a helper function, as demonstrated here - while this is simple to implement, it is bare-bones in that it doesn't give you inertial scrolling or overscrolling.
Use a library such as iScroll, which implements its own, sophisticated scrolling (inertial, overscrolling) based on CSS transformations.
Using iScroll requires a bit of setup, though: you need a wrapper div with fixed height and style overflow: hidden and the element to scroll should have no overflow style. This jsFiddle demo shows how it's done.
The only way i could achieve scrolling to the top of the page on a Galaxy Tab was hiding the page body for 100ms while scrolling. Using jQuery:
$("body").hide();
window.scrollTo(0, 0);
setTimeout(function(){ $("body").show() }, 100);
Try using jQuery's .animate method:
$('.div').animate({ scrollTo: x; });
Where x is equal to the position of the div you want to scroll to the top of.
Did you try this ?
$("html").scrollTop(0);
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$(".scroll").click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
$('html,body').animate({scrollTop:$(this.hash).offset().top}, 1500);
});
});
Use the following code:
$("body").animate( { scrollTop: 50, }, 800, function(){
$("body").clearQueue();
} );
These solutions did not work for me. I know someone mentioned mobile detection but their approach did not work for me. It finally dawned on me to use mobile detection to deliver two different CSS styles for each case. Maybe not ideal but it for sure works. Temporarily changing the styles with js also suggested above did not work for me.
I had a two column layout with independently scrolling divs, each set to overflow:scroll and the body had to be set to overflow:hidden. I need to use scrollTop on one of the columns and no solutions worked.
I used wp_is_mobile() (Wordpress function) and if mobile true, overflow: hidden is removed from body and the divs with overflow:scroll have that css removed. Finally, scrollTop worked on mobile.
$(document).ready(function (){
$(window).scroll(function(){
if($(this).scrollTop() > 100){
$('.scrollup').fadeIn();
}
else{
$('.scrollup').fadeOut();
}
});
$('.scrollup').click(function(){
if (navigator.userAgent.match(/(iPod|iPhone|iPad|Android)/)) {
window.scrollTo(0,0);
}
else{
$('html,body').animate({
scrollTop: 0
}, 500, function(){
$('html,body').clearQueue();
});
}
});
});
body{
height: 1500px;
}
.scrollup {
bottom: 135px;
height: 40px;
width: 40px;
display: none;
background: #000;
border: 2px solid #fff;
border-radius: 100%;
box-shadow: 1px 3px 5px #000;
text-align: center;
font-size: 25px;
color: #fff;
cursor: pointer;
position: fixed;
right: 12px;
line-height: 36px;
z-index: 25;
}
svg{
fill: #fff;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="scrollup">
<svg height="35" viewBox="0 0 512 512" width="30">
<polygon points="396.6,352 416,331.3 256,160 96,331.3 115.3,352 256,201.5 "/>
</svg>
</div>
I had the same problem and solved it by using jquery .offset() instead.
http://api.jquery.com/offset/
$('#yourFineElement').offset({ top: X, left Y)});
