I was just on http://www.google.com/finance and noticed on the middle of the page an awesome looking scrollbar.
How does Google create this scrollbar look/feel?
Note: this scrollbar is different than what Google used with it's Wave product.
Screenshot
UPDATE:
The scrollbar doesn't appear immediately. Do NOT refresh the page. Let the page sit ideal for a few moments until there is new news story in the world. Once a new news story appears, the new article will cause the scrollbar to appear.
Very interesting question. I just had spare time and spent it to implement simple example of this (spent about 1 hour with a cup of tea with candies ;)). Look at this:

It requires JQuery and Jquery UI, and the example still has some issues, but main idea is realized. Example tested ONLY in Chrome 7.
You can make a jquery plugin from it.
Not that I can see it, but I imagine a custom control made out of various images.
You make a track image that tiles to make up the background, top and bottom cap images to act as the forward/back buttons (with hover and depressed states) and the moveable control is usually three-part, two end-caps on either side of a tileable central area that can be resized to suit. Then you monitor drags on the control area and keep it bound within the track, and clicks (or better mousedown) on the forward/back buttons.
There are libraries like jQuery UI Slider that handle this for you if you do not wish to code it yourself.
Although others have indicated how this is done (and that was the question, thus they are the "correct" answer) I'd like to suggest an alternative answer...
Seriously consider why you would want to do this
A scrollbar would be just as easy to add by setting 2 css properties (e.g. no code required)
.container{
height:200px;/*some fixed height*/
overflow-y:auto;/*adds a native scrollbar, only when needed*/
}
The problem with the custom scrollbar is that it doesn't behave quite like a native one does.
You can't click on the track to scroll the content
You can't use the scroll-wheel on your mouse to scroll the content
You can't use the up/down arrow keys, home, end,page up, page dn to scroll the content
The thumbscrew doesn't change in size to reflect the amount of content that can be scrolled
These may not seem like a major issue, but changing/removing the "behavior" of UI controls that users are used to is generally not advised.
Quote from Jakob Neilsen's Usability site "Alertbox" article: "Scrolling and Scrollbars" - July 11, 2005. (emphasis mine)
Scrollbars are easy to get right. In fact, the less work you do, the better your scrollbar. Usability is almost always enhanced when you use the built-in scrollbars rather than design your own.

I see this sample:
link
If you do come down ... you see the sidebar on the right becomes fixed after a certain size ... you actually get down to almost everything.
How it was made an event the example?
With JQuery?
This is the link to my site
I tried to do something similar but incomplete
CODE JS:
$(window).scroll(function() {
var height = $(window).scrollTop();
console.log(height);
if(height > 700) {
//alert("test");
//after a certain size should be fixed ... what code should be here?
}
});
Did you have any idea as an example?
Can you help me solve this problem please?
Thanks in advance!
Here the example of not smooth scrolling of div.
(function($) {
var element = $('.follow-scroll'),
originalY = element.offset().top;
// Space between element and top of screen (when scrolling)
var topMargin = 20;
// Should probably be set in CSS; but here just for emphasis
element.css('position', 'relative');
$(window).on('scroll', function(event) {
var scrollTop = $(window).scrollTop();
element.stop(false, false).animate({

I am looking to implement a feature in which a notification displays via slideDown at the top of the page on a button (or other element) click, and then hides via fadeOut when it is scrolled out of view. This functionality is similar to what happens when clicking "How It Works" on airbnb's website.
For clarity, the following is the functionality that I am looking for:
Click a specified element to make the notification display
Notification slides into view at the top of the page and window automatically scrolls to the top
User scrolls down the page and the notification element fades out as soon as it is scrolled out of view
Does anyone have any idea how this can be implemented?
The implementation they use is pretty long and has a lot of functions returning functions, but the following is a quick pseudo-code description of what you need to do:
Create a click handler for the element you want to use as your "show button" that shows your "notification" when clicked. Note that my implementation jumps to the top of the page. In your implementation, you should change this to the smooth scrolling technique of your choice. UPDATE: I checked against Airbnb's site again and even without the smooth scrolling my implementation visually functions the same as theirs.
var $notification = $(".notification");
$(document).on("click", ".show-button", function() {
$notification.slideDown(); //can use whatever effect you want here, or just .show()
window.scrollTo(0, 0); //scroll to top of page
});
Next, create a scroll handler for the window that checks to see if the page has been scrolled down below the height of the "notification" (in other words, check to see if the notification is no longer in view). If it is not in view anymore, hide the element and update the scroll position so the page doesn't jump. Note that with my implementation, the page may jump in slower browsers because I'm not using smooth scrolling. However, when you add smooth scrolling the effect will look natural.
$(window).on("scroll", function() {
var notificationHeight = $notification.outerHeight(); //may be able to cache this or calculate outside the handler for reuse, depending on implementation
var currentScrollY = $(window).scrollTop();
if (currentScrollY > notificationHeight) {
$notification.hide();
//update the scroll browser scroll position
var updatedScrollY = currentScrollY - notificationHeight;
window.scrollTo(window.scrollX, updatedScrollY);
}
});
If we are looking to use an animation/effect to hide the "notification," then we need to update our scroll handler from the above. Looking at the current code, notice that we use $notification.hide() which instantly removes the element from the document. As such, the space consumed by the notification is not included when we compute the updated scroll position. However, if you use an animation/effect, like .fadeOut, the element's display property is not set to none until the animation COMPLETES, though the script execution continues immediately after the animation BEGINS (i.e. immediately after it is called). As such, the new scroll position will be calculated and applied before the notification is removed from the flow, causing the page to appear to jump to the top, with the notification in full or nearly full view. In order to get around this, we need to hold off on the execution of the the code to update the scroll position until the animation/effect finishes. We can do this easily moving the code for updating the scroll position into the animation/effect method's callback.
$(window).on("scroll", function() {
var notificationHeight = $notification.outerHeight(); //may be able to cache this or calculate outside the handler for reuse, depending on implementation
var currentScrollY = $(window).scrollTop();
if (currentScrollY > notificationHeight) {
//can use whatever effect you want, but must pass scroll position update code in callback to prevent page jump, if not using .hide()
$notification.fadeOut(function () {
//update the scroll browser scroll position
var updatedScrollY = currentScrollY - notificationHeight;
window.scrollTo(window.scrollX, updatedScrollY);
});
}
});
NOTE: Since we cannot see the element, we shouldn't be using an animation/effect, like fadeOut, to hide the notification. Adding the effect would merely add unnecessary overhead, since the element is not in view when it is hidden. However, I have included this step because the OP specifically mentioned using fadeOut for hiding the notification. I will include examples for both in the demo.
Since I'm a fan of performance and we don't need handle the scroll event of window unless the "notification" is actually being shown, let's move our scroll handler binding into a function, and add a namespace and .off call so that we can unbind it without affecting other handlers.
//binds the scroll handler we created in step 2 to the window
function bindScrollHandlerForNotification() {
$(window).on("scroll.checkHideNotification", function() {
var notificationHeight = $notification.outerHeight(); //may be able to cache this or calculate outside the handler for reuse, depending on implementation
var currentScrollY = $(window).scrollTop();
if (currentScrollY > notificationHeight) {
//can use whatever effect you want, but must pass scroll position update code in callback to prevent page jump, if not using .hide()
$notification.fadeOut(function() {
//update the scroll browser scroll position
var updatedScrollY = currentScrollY - notificationHeight;
window.scrollTo(window.scrollX, updatedScrollY);
//unbind the handler since the notification is hidden
$(window).off("scroll.checkHideNotification");
});
}
});
}
Now that we have a function to bind our handler, let's update the click handler from step 1 to call the function to bind our scroll handler.
$(document).on("click", ".show-button", function() {
$notification.slideDown(); //can use whatever effect you want here, or just .show()
window.scrollTo(0, 0); //scroll to top of page
bindScrollHandlerForNotification();
});

The jQuery checks if the scrollbar y-position is greater than the y-position of the bottom of the expanded div.
EDIT: Modified it to make it smoother and used the internal SO snippet tool.
You can use libraries to do this such as jQuery.
With it, this is what you will need to do:
Create a 'click()' function to make your div slide down
Attach that function to some element (like a button in my example)
Create a 'scroll()' function to see when the scroll reaches a certain height
Make your div 'fadeOut()' when it does
JS
$("#clickme").click(function() {
$("#slideme").slideDown("slow");
});
$(document).scroll(function(){
if($(document).scrollTop()>100 /* Insert height here */){
$("#slideme").fadeOut();
}
});
You can find the JSFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/qrdttrL1/1/
I'm struggling with this seemingly easy task: making jQuery UI tabs fill a window (100% height and width) while setting the tab content divs to fill the available space.
Here's what I'm dealing with: http://jsfiddle.net/rgw2raej/
In this example, the "red box" is much longer than the tab's available space even though it's set to 100% height. How can I get it to fill the tab's available space?
Here's the code (because Stack Overflow told me to):
HTML:
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li>Nunc tincidunt
</li>
<li>Proin dolor
</li>
<li>Aenean lacinia
</li>
</ul>
<div id="tabs-1">
<p>Proin elit arcu, rutrum commodo, vehicula tempus, commodo a, risus. Curabitur nec arcu. Donec sollicitudin mi sit amet mauris. Nam elementum quam ullamcorper ante. Etiam aliquet massa et lorem.

Duis aliquam molestie erat. Ut et mauris vel pede varius sollicitudin. Sed ut dolor nec orci tincidunt interdum. Phasellus ipsum. Nunc tristique tempus lectus.</p>
</div>
<div id="tabs-2">
<p>Morbi tincidunt, dui sit amet facilisis feugiat, odio metus gravida ante, ut pharetra massa metus id nunc. Duis scelerisque molestie turpis. Sed fringilla, massa eget luctus malesuada, metus eros molestie lectus, ut tempus eros massa ut dolor. Aenean aliquet fringilla sem. Suspendisse sed ligula in ligula suscipit aliquam. Praesent in eros vestibulum mi adipiscing adipiscing. Morbi facilisis. Curabitur ornare consequat nunc. Aenean vel metus. Ut posuere viverra nulla. Aliquam erat volutpat. Pellentesque convallis. Maecenas feugiat, tellus pellentesque pretium posuere, felis lorem euismod felis, eu ornare leo nisi vel felis. Mauris consectetur tortor et purus.</p>
</div>
<div id="tabs-3">

Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos himenaeos. Fusce sodales. Quisque eu urna vel enim commodo pellentesque. Praesent eu risus hendrerit ligula tempus pretium. Curabitur lorem enim, pretium nec, feugiat nec, luctus a, lacus.</p>
<p>Duis cursus. Maecenas ligula eros, blandit nec, pharetra at, semper at, magna. Nullam ac lacus. Nulla facilisi. Praesent viverra justo vitae neque. Praesent blandit adipiscing velit.

</div>
CSS:
#tabs {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
}
#tabs-1, #tabs-2, #tabs-3 {
border: 5px solid red !important;
height: 100%;
}
JS:
$(function () {
$("#tabs").tabs();
});
This is a long-standing CSS bugbear, and there are some truly ugly solutions out there.
Finally, CSS3 delivers an elegant-ish solution. It's called 'flex'.
Remove the "height:100%" rules, and replace them with:
#tabs {
display:flex;
flex-direction:column;
flex:1;
}
#tabs-1, #tabs-2, #tabs-3 {
flex:1;
}
Here's your page with this code added: http://jsfiddle.net/bgxpc9y9/
Is that what you wanted?
Instead of using position: absolute on #tabs, use display: block.
Here is a working fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/rgw2raej/1/
I have two divs, structured as follows:
<div id="container">
<div id="inner"></div>
</div>
The outer, container div has a very large height (this is simply meant to emulate a real-world scenario where there's a lot of content in the parent div). The inner div is a fixed position div, with a defined height. Overflow-y is set on the inner div, so that people can scroll through it to see any content that doesn't fit within its defined height.
Here's a codepen: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/myVxar
How do I set it such that when you're done scrolling through the inner div, the outer div does not scroll? In other words, scrolling within the inner div should never scroll the outer div.
Is there a way to do this using CSS/HTML? If not, how would I do it using Javascript/Jquery?
You can't disable the scroll for the page but you can disable the mousewheel event
Edit: I do have to say that if you are running into this in the real world and you have full control over the front end code you should rethink you're strategy, because there is most definitely a better way.
function preventDefault(e) {
e = e || window.event;
if (e.preventDefault)
e.preventDefault();
e.returnValue = false;
}
function wheel(e) {
preventDefault(e)
}
// bind some scroll functionality to the inner div
$('#inner').on('scroll', function(e){
var elem = $(e.currentTarget);
// check if user has scrolled to bottom
if (elem[0].scrollHeight - elem.scrollTop() == elem.outerHeight()){
// disable mouse scroll event
if (window.addEventListener) {
window.addEventListener('DOMMouseScroll', wheel, false);
}
window.onmousewheel = document.onmousewheel = wheel;
console.log('done')
} else{
// remove the event that disables scroll
if (window.removeEventListener) {
window.removeEventListener('DOMMouseScroll', wheel, false);
}
window.onmousewheel = document.onmousewheel = document.onkeydown = null;
}
});
// remove the event that disabled scroll if user mouse leaves inner container
$('#inner').mouseout(function(e){
if (window.removeEventListener) {
window.removeEventListener('DOMMouseScroll', wheel, false);
}
window.onmousewheel = document.onmousewheel = document.onkeydown = null;
})
Also wondering why you are taking this approach. I think you may be setting the large height in case the content is long, but why not just do something like this?
#container {
height:200px;
width:300px;
overflow:scroll;
border:1px solid;
}
Once the inner content overflows the container, the container will scroll - the .inner doesn't need any styling relating to the scrolling. Post more detail if I am missing something.
Assuming that the inner div isn't always covering other content... You could just adjust the height and overflow of the container when you show the inner div:
Working Example
$('#container').click(function () {
if ($('#inner').is(':visible')) {
$('#inner').fadeOut('slow');
$('#container').css({
height: 14000,
overflow: 'auto'
});
} else {
$('#inner').fadeIn('slow', function () {
$('#container').css({
height: "100%",
overflow: 'hidden'
});
});
}
});
#container {
height: 14000px;
width: 100%;
}
#inner {
display:none;
background: #fff;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100vh;
width: 100%;
overflow-y: scroll;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 15px;
font-size: 18px;
color: #808080;
}

I'm using this code to make the sidebar fixed at a certain div while the user scrolls down. The problem is that I have to manually enter in a threshold number and this isn't always ideal since the position of the section may change or be inconsistent across various browsers and systems. I'm wondering if there is a way I can automatically have the sidebar become fixed once the user scrolls down and .Section2 hits the top.

$(window).scroll(function () {
var threshold = 250;
if ($(window).scrollTop() >= threshold)
$('.Section2').addClass('fixed');
else
$('.Section2').removeClass('fixed');
});
Instead of specifying the threshold value try this
var threshold = $('.Section2').offset().top;
$(window).scroll(function () {
if ($(window).scrollTop() >= threshold)
$('.Section2').addClass('fixed');
else
$('.Section2').removeClass('fixed');
});
DEMO
Further to our discussions I thought I would post an alternative to the accepted solution that will work with flexible content.
It simply gets Section2 offset each time the scroll event is fired (but only if its not already .fixed):
EDIT: simply check that threshold is greater than zero:
var $Section2 = $('.Section2');
$(window).scroll(function () {
var threshold = $Section2.offset().top;
if (threshold>0 && $(window).scrollTop() >= threshold){
$Section2.addClass('fixed');
} else {
$Section2.removeClass('fixed');
}
});
