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;

Prevent css interact in a div

I am doing a code that do some js injection of code in page, with JQuery. But in my input that i get in some pages modify it, I am putting all important attributes and define them as !important, but it's impossible to put all the attributes in all the tags.
Someone know how to disable all other css inside a div?
Solution I think:
I found a solution but i don't want to use it. Its eliminate al css from the page, while i am injecting the code after using that code I eliminate my css and code and apply the original code from the webpage
Thanks

If you're using that many !importants you're doing it wrong.
The solution to this problem is to properly organize your css. Important stuff last, because it overrides what was previously styled. Also use your selectors wisely. Example:
<a class="link">Link</a>
.
a:link { color: red; }
.
.
.
.link { color: green !important; } // Nop
a.link { color: green; } // Yup

If you override everything it will work with normal CSS rules on every page. Not what you were hoping for, but it is a solution.
css:
#myInsertDiv {
color: blue;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
background: white;
border: 0px;
/* etc you have to restyle EVERY possible value */
}
html:
<div id="myInsertDiv"></div>
The main issue is you have to style every attribute, and reset everything else to a default value.
Or you can insert all the style information into the style attribute on the div, but that is probably doing it wrong too.

If I got you right you can use jQuery for modifying CSS properties on any elements of the page (huh), using something like this $('.Myclass').css('color','#ff0000')

remove / reset inherited css from an element [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How to reset/remove CSS styles for a specific element or selector only
(17 answers)
Closed last month.
I know this question was asked before, but before marking it as a duplicate, I want to tell you that my situation is a little different from what I found on the internet.
I'm building and embedded script that people can put it on their sites. This script creates a div with a certain width/height and some information in it.
My problem is that some websites declare styles for div that are inherited by my div as well.
for example:
div{
background-color:red;
}
so if I don't set any background color to my div, it will show red even if I don't want that.
The only solutions I come along is to overwrite as many css proprieties, this way my div will show exactly as I want.
The problem with this solution is that there are too many css proprieties to overwrite and I want my script to be as light as it can be.
So my question is if you know another solution to my problem.
It can be in css/javascript /jQuery.
Thanks

"Resetting" styles for a specific element isn't possible, you'll have to overwrite all styles you don't want/need. If you do this with CSS directly or using JQuery to apply the styles (depends on what's easier for you, but I wouldn't recommend using JavaScript/JQuery for this, as it's completely unnecessary).
If your div is some kind of "widget" that can be included into other sites, you could try to wrap it into an iframe. This will "reset" the styles, because its content is another document, but maybe this affects how your widget works (or maybe breaks it completely) so this might not be possible in your case.

Only set the relevant / important CSS properties.
Example (only change the attributes which may cause your div to look completely different):
background: #FFF;
border: none;
color: #000;
display: block;
font: initial;
height: auto;
letter-spacing: normal;
line-height: normal;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-transform: none;
visibility: visible;
width: auto;
word-spacing: normal;
z-index: auto;
Choose a very specific selector, such as div#donttouchme, <div id="donttouchme"></div>. Additionally, you can add `!important before every semicolon in the declaration. Your customers are deliberately trying to mess up your lay-out when this option fails.

You could try overwriting the CSS and use auto
I don't think this will work with color specifically, but I ran into an issue where i had a parent property such as
.parent {
left: 0px;
}
and then I was able to just define my child with something like
.child {
left: auto;
}
and it effectively "reset" the property.

Technically what you are looking for is the unset value in combination with the shorthand property all:
The unset CSS keyword resets a property to its inherited value if it inherits from its parent, and to its initial value if not. In other words, it behaves like the inherit keyword in the first case, and like the initial keyword in the second case. It can be applied to any CSS property, including the CSS shorthand all.
.customClass {
/* specific attribute */
color: unset;
}
.otherClass{
/* unset all attributes */
all: unset;
/* then set own attributes */
color: red;
}
You can use the initial value as well, this will default to the initial browser value.
.otherClass{
/* unset all attributes */
all: initial;
/* then set own attributes */
color: red;
}
As an alternative:
If possible it is probably good practice to encapsulate the class or id in a kind of namespace:
.namespace .customClass{
color: red;
}
<div class="namespace">
<div class="customClass"></div>
</div>
because of the specificity of the selector this will only influence your own classes
It is easier to accomplish this in "preprocessor scripting languages" like SASS with nesting capabilities:
.namespace{
.customClass{
color: red
}
}

Try this: Create a plain div without any style or content outside of the red div. Now you can use a loop over all styles of the plain div and assign then to your inner div to reset all styles.
Of course this doesn't work if someone assigns styles to all divs (i.e. without using a class. CSS would be div { ... }).
The usual solution for problems like this is to give your div a distinct class. That way, web designers of the sites can adjust the styling of your div to fit into the rest of the design.

As long as they are attributes like classes and ids you can remove them by javascript/jQuery class modifiers.
document.getElementById("MyElement").className = "";
There is no way to remove specific tag CSS other than overriding them (or using another element).

you may use this below option.
<style>
div:not(.no_common_style){
background-color:red;
}
</style>
now , if their any place where you do not want to apply default style you can use 'no_common_style' class as class.
ex:
<div class="no_common_style">
It will not display in red
</div>

From what I understand you want to use a div that inherits from no class but yours. As mentioned in the previous reply you cannot completely reset a div inheritance. However, what worked for me with that issue was to use another element - one that is not frequent and certainly not used in the current html page. A good example, is to use instead of then customize it to look just like your ideal would.
area { background-color : red; }

One simple approach would be to use the !important modifier in css, but this can be overridden in the same way from users.
Maybe a solution can be achieved with jquery by traversing the entire DOM to find your (re)defined classes and removing / forcing css styles.

Auto fit CSS attribute to textarea

I am working on web application.
I wanted to apply auto height to textarea using CSS, dont want to use any script, jquery plugin and other stuff.
After applying class ( i.e. style property ) to textarea, it should automatically increase it's height not width as per content present it in.
In this case width should be fixed i.e. width: 98%; (In my case) only height needs to grow. So scroll bars should exist for text area.
I simply needed one CSS so that after applying to textarea, it should be auto grow like <DIV>.
Please folks do sugggest, is this possible using CSS. If this is not possible, then m okey if i get javascript statments to acheives my requirement.
Thanks,
Pravin

It's sort of semi-doable in html/CSS. There are, however, the usual caveats of browser support and, since it uses html5's contenteditable, it requires a fairly modern browser.
That said, the following works (in Chrome/Ubuntu 10.04):
<div id="wrap">
<div id="editThis" contenteditable>
</div>
</div>
With the following CSS:
div#editThis {
min-height: 4em;
height: auto;
width: 50%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
div#editThis:hover,
div#editThis:focus {
border: 1px solid #000;
}
Demo posted at jsbin

If you're only displaying text in a textarea and not using it to get more content input from the user then consider using a div and styling it to look like a textarea.
the other thing i have seen is an auto expanding textarea that grown in height as you type.

This is not possible with pure CSS, you will need to use JavaScript

How can I disable a browser or element scrollbar, but still allow scrolling with wheel or arrow keys?

I want to hide any scrollbars from my div elements and my whole body, but still let the user scroll with the mouse wheel or arrow keys. How can this be achieved with raw JavaScript or jQuery? Any ideas?

Like the previous answers, you would use overflow:hidden to disable the scrollbars on the body/div.
Then you'd bind the mousewheel event to a function that would change the scrollTop of the div to emulate scrolling.
For arrow keys, you would bind the keydown event to recognize an arrow key, and then change scrollTop and scrollLeft of the div as appropriate to emulate scrolling.
(Note: you use keydown instead of keypress since IE doesn't recognize keypress for arrow keys.)
Edit: I couldn't get FF/Chrome to recognize keydown on a div, but it works in IE8. Depending on what you needed this for, you can set a keydown listener on the document to scroll the div. (Check out the keyCode reference as an example.)
For example, scrolling with the mouse wheel (using jQuery and a mousewheel plugin):
<div id="example" style="width:300px;height:200px;overflow:hidden">
insert enough text to overflow div here
</div>
<script>
$("#example").bind("mousewheel",function(ev, delta) {
var scrollTop = $(this).scrollTop();
$(this).scrollTop(scrollTop-Math.round(delta));
});
</script>
(This is a quick mockup, you'd have to adjust the numbers since for me, this scrolls a bit slowly.)

mousewheel plugin
keydown, keypress # quirksmode
Update 12/19/2012:
The updated location of the mousewheel plugin is at: https://github.com/brandonaaron/jquery-mousewheel

What about a purely CSS solution?
Solution 1 (cross browser but more hacky)
#div {
position: fixed;
right: -20px;
left: 20px;
background-color: black;
color: white;
height: 5em;
overflow-y: scroll;
overflow-x: hidden;
}
<html>
<body>
<div id="div">
Scrolling div with hidden scrollbars!<br/>
On overflow, this div will scroll with the mousewheel but scrollbars won't be visible.<br/>
Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Solution 2 (uses experimental features, may not support some browsers)
Just add the nobars class to any element you want to hide the scrollbars on.
.nobars {
/* Firefox: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/scrollbar-width */
scrollbar-width: none;
/* IE: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh771902(v=vs.85).aspx */
-ms-overflow-style: none;
}
.nobars::-webkit-scrollbar {
/* Chrome/Edge/Opera/Safari: https://css-tricks.com/custom-scrollbars-in-webkit/ */
display: none;
}
Solution 3 (cross browser javascript)
Perfect Scrollbar doesn't require jQuery (although it can utilise jQuery if installed) and has a demo available here. The components can be styled with css such as in the following example:
.ps__rail-y {
display: none !important;
}
Here is a complete example including the implementation of Perfect Scrollbar:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/perfect-scrollbar.css">
<style>
#container {
position: relative; /* can be absolute or fixed if required */
height: 200px; /* any value will do */
overflow: auto;
}
.ps__rail-y {
display: none !important;
}
</style>
<script src='dist/perfect-scrollbar.min.js'></script>
<div id="container">
Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>Scrollable<br>
</div>
<script>
// on dom ready...
var container = document.getElementById("container");
var ps = new PerfectScrollbar(container);
//ps.update(container);
//ps.destroy(container);
</script>

You dont have to use jquery or js to make this. Its more performant with simple webkit.
Just add the code below to your css file.
::-webkit-scrollbar {
display: none;
}
Caution !
This will disable all the scrollbar so be sure to put it in a specific class or id if you just want one to be hidden.

I much prefer SamGoody's answer provided to a duplicate of this question. It leaves native scrolling effects intact, instead of trying to manually re-implement for a few particular input devices:
A better solution is to set the target div to overflow:scroll, and wrap it inside a second element that is 8px narrower, who's overflow:hidden.
See the original comment for a fleshed-out example. You may want to use JavaScript to determine the actual size of scrollbars rather than assuming they are always 8px wide as his example does.

To get this working for me, I used this CSS:
html { overflow-y: hidden; }
But I had problems using $(this).scrollTop(), so I bound to my #id, but adjusted the scrollTop of window. Also, my smooth scrolling mouse would fire lots of 1 or -1 deltas, so I multiplied that by 20.
$("#example").bind("mousewheel", function (ev, delta) {
var scrollTop = $(window).scrollTop();
$(window).scrollTop(scrollTop - Math.round(delta * 20));
});

As Baldráni said above
::-webkit-scrollbar { display: none; }
Or you can do
::-webkit-scrollbar{ width: 0px; }
(posted for other people that stumble on this from google search!)

Well, perhaps not the most intuitive in my opinion, but I can imagine you being able to make it a decent experience, give this a try.
overflow:hidden;
make sure the parent object has a height and width, and displays as block
