Firefox 3.6 video full screen control - javascript

Firefox now supports full screen mode on the video html5 tag. ( right click on the movie .. )
Is there any way to create a control ( html tag ) to do this like this play/pause example ( using js ) ?
<script>
function play(){
var video = document.getElementById('movie');
var play = document.getElementById('play');
play.addEventListener('click',playControl,false);
function playControl() {
if (video.paused == false) {
video.pause();
this.firstChild.nodeValue = 'Play';
pauseCount();
} else {
video.play();
this.firstChild.nodeValue = 'Pause';
startCount();
}
}
}

basically all you need is creating a function (triggered by a fullscreen button) in which you assign a position: absolute, and an higher z-index to the video wrapper
the you will assign both video and video wrapper width and height : 100% (or fixed size if you prefer)
probably the best way to achieve this behaviour is defining a class (e.g. fullscreen) and assign it to the container, something like
.fullscreen {
position : absolute;
z-index : 1000;
width : 100%;
height : 100%;
top : 0;
left : 0;
}
.fullscreen video {
width : 100%;
height : 100%;
}
so the function call (fullscreen/normal view) is a switch for the .fullscreen class.

Disable CSS transition when phone changes orientation (landscape/portrait)

On my page I have a:
<div id="id_modal_background"></div>
that is between a modal login window and a background image. It's task is to (a) blur the background image once the modal login window is shown and (b) dismantle the blur when modal login window is closed.
In order for the blur to look nice it needs transition time of 1s, which is set in CSS like this:
#id_modal_background{
z-index: 2;
display: block;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
transition: 1s;
}
But this transition time gives me side effects on phones where change of the orientation from landscape to portrait (but not vice versa) needs 1s to redraw the blur. And it doesn't looks nice.
I am using this function to draw (id_modal_background_visibility(1)) or dismantle (id_modal_background_visibility(0)) the blur:
function id_modal_background_visibility(a){
let r = '';
let m = document.getElementById('id_modal_background');
switch(a){
case 0:
r = 'OFF';
// In order to reference "backdrop-filter" we camelcase it!
m.style.backdropFilter = 'blur(0px) grayscale(0)';
m.style.visibility = 'hidden';
break;
case 1:
r = 'ON';
// In order to reference "backdrop-filter" we camelcase it!
m.style.visibility = 'visible';
m.style.backdropFilter = 'blur(15px) grayscale(0.25)';
break;
default:
r = 'ERROR';
m.style.visibility = 'hidden';
break;
}
console.log('Modal background visibility: ' + r);
}
If anyone can help me to remove the transition time that happens at any kind of orientation change, but keep the transition time otherwise, I would be more than happy.
You can make use of css media queries
#media (orientation: landscape) {
}
Read more here How to set portrait and landscape media queries in css?
You can manage your code like below :
window.addEventListener("orientationchange", function() {
if(window.innerHeight > window.innerWidth){
console.log("Portrait");
} else {
console.log("Landscape");
}
}, true);
And you can apply CSS class accordingly. Also media query CSS is a possible way for your problem.

Javascript Media Query no responding

So I am building a website, I have some custom menus that use HTML and JS. when the menu is open it is 25% of the screen:
function opensideNav() {
document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "25%";
}
//Closes Right sidenav
function closesideNav() {
document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "0";
}
If i use
var mq = window.matchMedia( "(min-width: 1023px)" );
if (mq.matches) {
function opensideNav() {
document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "25%";
}
//Closes Right sidenav
function closesideNav() {
document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "0";
}
} else {
function opensideNav() {
document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "100%";
}
//Closes Right sidenav
function closesideNav() {
document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "0";
}
}
It will only open the menu on a smaller screen than 1023.... I have tried changing the min to max but still the same problem. Pls help :)
Why not just use CSS media queries for this? you can do:
function toggleNav() {
document.getElementById("mySidenav").classList.toggle("open");
}
in your JavaScript which toggles the open class on and off, this needs to be attached to whatever it is you're clicking to toggle the menu.
Then in your CSS you can do:
#mySidenav {
width: 0;
}
#mySidenav.open {
width: 100%;
}
#media screen and (min-width: 1023px) {
#mySidenav.open {
width: 25%;
}
}
So what this is doing is the function in the JS is toggling the open class on and off of the mySidenav element when clicked. By default the CSS is giving mySidenav a width of 0, then overriding that when the open class is applied. This also looks at the width of the viewport and changes what the width being applied is based on that.
Note your open nav button would be something like:
<button onclick="toggleNav()">Menu</button>
You misunderstood min-width. min-width in the context of media queries means that it will be applied if the viewport is having a minimum width of the given value. However, you intend to query by the width of the device, so min-width and max-width are not really helpful for your purpose. You will need to use min-device-width and max-device-width, respectively to query the width of the device instead of the width of the viewport.

make div 100% of browser height depending on length of content

I have 2 divs, a navigation and a main content in a bootstrap grid system. The length of either can vary depending on amount of content. I need them both styled to fill 100% of the browser window IF neither has the content to reach the bottom naturally. But if at least one of the divs has more content than the length of the browser window, I need to be able to scroll down the page with the styles of both divs remaining in tact and both have a height of the longer of the 2 divs.
I'm currently using a javascript resize function which seems to work but not in the case where neither div is long enough to fill the height of the browser window. Any suggestions?
HTML
<div class="row">
<div id="nav" class="col-xs-2">
Variable Height Navigation
</div>
<div id="main" class="col-xs-10">
Variable Height Content
</div>
</div>
Javascript
function resize() {
var h = (document.height !== undefined) ? document.height : document.body.offsetHeight;
document.getElementById("nav").style.height = h + "px";
}
resize();
window.onresize = function () {
resize();
};
I am trying to understand you question, and if I'm correct what you are looking for is:
Both divs need to be equally high
They need be at least the height of the screen
They need to take the height of the highest div
So let's try to achieve this goal as simply as possible:
var main = document.getElementById('main');
var nav = document.getElementById('nav');
function resize(){
var highest;
// Set the divs back to autosize, so we can measure their content height correctly.
main.style.height = 'auto';
nav.style.height = 'auto';
// Find the highest div and store its height.
highest = main.clientHeight > nav.clientHeight
? main.clientHeight
: nav.clientHeight;
// Check if the highest value is the div or the window.
highest = highest > window.innerHeight
? highest
: window.innerHeight;
// Assign the newly found value
main.style.height = highest + 'px';
nav.style.height = highest + 'px';
}
resize();
// Also, you don't need to wrap it in a function.
window.resize = resize;
// However, better would be:
window.addEventListener('resize', resize, false);
#main, #nav {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
#main { background: red; }
#nav { background: green; }
<div id="main"></div>
<div id="nav"></div>
Now, If you aren't bothered with the actual sameness in heiught of both divs but just want them to at least be one screenful, you should consider using CSS:
html, body { height: 100%; }
#nav, #main { min-height: 100%; }
I think that is the better solution (no Javascript!) and sort-of does what you want, bar the fact that you won't have to equally high div elements. However, you would barely notice it as each will at least fill the page.
You could try using viewport height:
For example:
#nav {
min-height: 100vh;
}
#main {
min-height: 100vh;
}
See Bootply.
This will also remove the need for JavaScript.

Position displacement when toggling several overflow-y Elements

I have a problem which I don't know how to solve, hopefully someone here can shed some light into it.
I have a very simple layout (JSBin) with a horizontally centered header, some content to experience vertical scrolling, a sticky footer and an off-canvas navigation menu. I want to prevent the user from scrolling the page when the sidebar is opened, I'm doing that by toggling a class on the <html> tag:
$('button').click(function () {
$('html').toggleClass('sidebar');
});
The .sidebar class will transition the sidebar into view and disable scrolling on the content:
html {
overflow-y: scroll; /* default state, always shows scrollbar */
}
html.sidebar {
overflow-y: hidden; /* hides scrollbar when .sidebar is on canvas */
}
html.sidebar aside {
-webkit-transform: translate3d(-100%, 0, 0); /* places .sidebar on canvas */
}
The problem is, it displaces every element in the page by whatever width the <html> scrollbar had.
Is there any way to prevent this shift in position (preferably without resorting to Javascript)?
Here's the JSBin editor in case you need to peek at the code.
Update: Seems that Javascript isn't an option, the scroll width calculation is not reliable at all.
You can toggle the margin-right of .container to compensate for the change in width
$(function () {
$('button').click(function () {
var marginR = $(".container").css("margin-right") == sWidth+"px" ? "auto" : sWidth;
$(".container").css("margin-right", marginR);
$('html').toggleClass('sidebar');
});
});
function getScrollbarWidth() {
var outer = document.createElement("div");
outer.style.visibility = "hidden";
outer.style.width = "100px";
outer.style.msOverflowStyle = "scrollbar"; // needed for WinJS apps
document.body.appendChild(outer);
var widthNoScroll = outer.offsetWidth;
// force scrollbars
outer.style.overflow = "scroll";
// add innerdiv
var inner = document.createElement("div");
inner.style.width = "100%";
outer.appendChild(inner);
var widthWithScroll = inner.offsetWidth;
// remove divs
outer.parentNode.removeChild(outer);
return widthNoScroll - widthWithScroll;
}
var sWidth = getScrollbarWidth();
Demo
Scrollbar width calculation taken from this answer
I can't find a CSS solution that works reliably. However, I'm having success with the following Javascript:
window.onload=function(){
document.body.style.paddingLeft = (window.innerWidth - document.body.clientWidth);
document.body.onclick=function(){
document.body.style.paddingLeft = (window.innerWidth - document.body.clientWidth);
}
}
I haven't analyzed yet what the processing impact is for running this code each and every time somebody clicks on my site (it's probably ugly), but it works.

How to disable scroll without hiding it?

I'm trying to disable the html/body scrollbar of the parent while I'm using a lightbox. The main word here is disable. I do not want to hide it with overflow: hidden;.
The reason for this is that overflow: hidden makes the site jump and take up the area where the scroll was.
I want to know if its possible to disable a scrollbar while still showing it.
If the page under the overlayer can be "fixed" at the top, when you open the overlay you can set
body {
position: fixed;
overflow-y:scroll
}
you should still see the right scrollbar but the content is not scrollable. When you close the overlay just revert these properties with
body {
position: static;
overflow-y:auto
}
I just proposed this way only because you wouldn't need to change any scroll event
What if I already scrolled the page?
if you get the document.documentElement.scrollTop property via javascript just before the layer opening, you could dynamically assign that value as top property of the body element: with this approach the page will keep its current scroll position, no matter if you're on top or if you have already scrolled.
Css
.noscroll {
position: fixed;
inline-size: 100%;
overflow-y:scroll
}
JS
$('body').css('top', -(document.documentElement.scrollTop) + 'px')
.addClass('noscroll');
Four little additions to the accepted solution:
Apply 'noscroll' to html instead of to body to prevent double scroll bars in IE
To check if there's actually a scroll bar before adding the 'noscroll' class. Otherwise, the site will also jump pushed by the new non-scrolling scroll bar.
To keep any possible scrollTop so the entire page doesn't go back to the top (like Fabrizio's update, but you need to grab the value before adding the 'noscroll' class)
Not all browsers handle scrollTop the same way as documented at http://help.dottoro.com/ljnvjiow.php
Complete solution that seems to work for most browsers:
CSS
html.noscroll {
position: fixed;
overflow-y: scroll;
width: 100%;
}
Disable scroll
if ($(document).height() > $(window).height()) {
var scrollTop = ($('html').scrollTop()) ? $('html').scrollTop() : $('body').scrollTop(); // Works for Chrome, Firefox, IE...
$('html').addClass('noscroll').css('top',-scrollTop);
}
Enable scroll
var scrollTop = parseInt($('html').css('top'));
$('html').removeClass('noscroll');
$('html,body').scrollTop(-scrollTop);
Thanks to Fabrizio and Dejan for putting me on the right track and to Brodingo for the solution to the double scroll bar
With jQuery inluded:
disable
$.fn.disableScroll = function() {
window.oldScrollPos = $(window).scrollTop();
$(window).on('scroll.scrolldisabler',function ( event ) {
$(window).scrollTop( window.oldScrollPos );
event.preventDefault();
});
};
enable
$.fn.enableScroll = function() {
$(window).off('scroll.scrolldisabler');
};
usage
//disable
$("#selector").disableScroll();
//enable
$("#selector").enableScroll();
I'm the OP
With the help of answer from fcalderan I was able to form a solution. I leave my solution here as it brings clarity to how to use it, and adds a very crucial detail, width: 100%;
I add this class
body.noscroll
{
position: fixed;
overflow-y: scroll;
width: 100%;
}
this worked for me and I was using Fancyapp.
This worked really well for me....
// disable scrolling
$('body').bind('mousewheel touchmove', lockScroll);
// enable scrolling
$('body').unbind('mousewheel touchmove', lockScroll);
// lock window scrolling
function lockScroll(e) {
e.preventDefault();
}
just wrap those two lines of code with whatever decides when you are going to lock scrolling.
e.g.
$('button').on('click', function() {
$('body').bind('mousewheel touchmove', lockScroll);
});
You cannot disable the scroll event, but you can disable the related actions that lead to a scroll, like mousewheel and touchmove:
$('body').on('mousewheel touchmove', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
});
You can hide the body's scrollbar with overflow: hidden and set a margin at the same time so that the content doesn't jump:
let marginRightPx = 0;
if(window.getComputedStyle) {
let bodyStyle = window.getComputedStyle(document.body);
if(bodyStyle) {
marginRightPx = parseInt(bodyStyle.marginRight, 10);
}
}
let scrollbarWidthPx = window.innerWidth - document.body.clientWidth;
Object.assign(document.body.style, {
overflow: 'hidden',
marginRight: `${marginRightPx + scrollbarWidthPx}px`
});
And then you can add a disabled scrollbar to the page to fill in the gap:
textarea {
overflow-y: scroll;
overflow-x: hidden;
width: 11px;
outline: none;
resize: none;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
border: 0;
}
<textarea></textarea>
I did exactly this for my own lightbox implementation. Seems to be working well so far.
Here is a working demo. This is how you can do this with pure JavaScript:
const { body, documentElement } = document;
let { scrollTop } = document.documentElement;
function disableScroll() {
scrollTop = documentElement.scrollTop;
body.style.top = `-${scrollTop}px`;
body.classList.add("scroll-disabled");
}
function enableScroll() {
body.classList.remove("scroll-disabled");
documentElement.scrollTop = scrollTop;
body.style.removeProperty("top");
}
And this is the CSS:
.scroll-disabled {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
We use position: fixed on body to prevent it from being scrollable and we use overflow-y to show the scrollbar. We also need to set width because of how position: fixed works.
We keep track of the scroll position and update it when disabling scroll so that we can position body appropriately using top when scroll is disabled and restore the scroll position when it is enabled. Otherwise body will keep jumping to the top when disabling or enabling scroll.
When enabling scroll we remove the top style from body. This prevents it from breaking your layout if you have a different position than static on body.
If you are using scroll-behavior: smooth on html, you also need to modify the enableScroll function like this:
function enableScroll() {
body.classList.remove("scroll-disabled");
// Set "scroll-behavior" to "auto"
documentElement.style.scrollBehavior = "auto";
documentElement.scrollTop = scrollTop;
// Remove "scroll-behavior: auto" after restoring scroll position
documentElement.style.removeProperty("scroll-behavior");
body.style.removeProperty("top");
}
We need to temporarily set scroll-behavior to auto so that there are no jumps.
This is the solution we went with. Simply save the scroll position when the overlay is opened, scroll back to the saved position any time the user attempted to scroll the page, and turn the listener off when the overlay is closed.
It's a bit jumpy on IE, but works like a charm on Firefox/Chrome.
var body = $("body"),
overlay = $("#overlay"),
overlayShown = false,
overlayScrollListener = null,
overlaySavedScrollTop = 0,
overlaySavedScrollLeft = 0;
function showOverlay() {
overlayShown = true;
// Show overlay
overlay.addClass("overlay-shown");
// Save scroll position
overlaySavedScrollTop = body.scrollTop();
overlaySavedScrollLeft = body.scrollLeft();
// Listen for scroll event
overlayScrollListener = body.scroll(function() {
// Scroll back to saved position
body.scrollTop(overlaySavedScrollTop);
body.scrollLeft(overlaySavedScrollLeft);
});
}
function hideOverlay() {
overlayShown = false;
// Hide overlay
overlay.removeClass("overlay-shown");
// Turn scroll listener off
if (overlayScrollListener) {
overlayScrollListener.off();
overlayScrollListener = null;
}
}
// Click toggles overlay
$(window).click(function() {
if (!overlayShown) {
showOverlay();
} else {
hideOverlay();
}
});

<h1>Top of overlay</h1>
<p>Click to toggle overlay. (Containing page is no longer scrollable, but this is.)</p>

</div>
I like to stick to the "overflow: hidden" method and just add padding-right that's equal to the scrollbar width.
Get scrollbar width function, by lostsource.
function getScrollbarWidth() {
var outer = document.createElement("div");
outer.style.visibility = "hidden";
outer.style.width = "100px";
outer.style.msOverflowStyle = "scrollbar"; // needed for WinJS apps
document.body.appendChild(outer);
var widthNoScroll = outer.offsetWidth;
// force scrollbars
outer.style.overflow = "scroll";
// add innerdiv
var inner = document.createElement("div");
inner.style.width = "100%";
outer.appendChild(inner);
var widthWithScroll = inner.offsetWidth;
// remove divs
outer.parentNode.removeChild(outer);
return widthNoScroll - widthWithScroll;
}
When showing the overlay, add "noscroll" class to html and add padding-right to body:
$(html).addClass("noscroll");
$(body).css("paddingRight", getScrollbarWidth() + "px");
When hiding, remove the class and padding:
$(html).removeClass("noscroll");
$(body).css("paddingRight", 0);
The noscroll style is just this:
.noscroll { overflow: hidden; }
Note that if you have any elements with position:fixed you need to add the padding to those elements too.
Another solution to get rid of content jump on fixed modal, when removing body scroll is to normalize page width:
body {width: 100vw; overflow-x: hidden;}
Then you can play with fixed position or overflow:hidden for body when the modal is open. But it will hide horizontal scrollbars - usually they're not needed on responsive website.
you can keep overflow:hidden but manage scroll position manually:
before showing keep trace of actual scroll position:
var scroll = [$(document).scrollTop(),$(document).scrollLeft()];
//show your lightbox and then reapply scroll position
$(document).scrollTop(scroll[0]).scrollLeft(scroll[1]);
it should work
<div id="lightbox"> is inside the <body> element, thus when you scroll the lightbox you also scroll the body. The solution is to not extend the <body> element over 100%, to place the long content inside another div element and to add a scrollbar if needed to this div element with overflow: auto.
html {
height: 100%
}
body {
margin: 0;
height: 100%
}
#content {
height: 100%;
overflow: auto;
}
#lightbox {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
}
<html>
<body>
<div id="content">much content</div>
<div id="lightbox">lightbox<div>
</body>
</html>
Now, scrolling over the lightbox (and the body as well) has no effect, because the body is no longer than 100% of the screen height.
I had a similar problem: a left-hand menu that, when it appears, prevents scrolling. As soon as height was set to 100vh, the scrollbar disappeared and the content jerked to the right.
So if you don't mind keeping the scrollbar enabled (but setting the window to full height so it won't actually scroll anywhere) then another possibility is setting a tiny bottom margin, which will keep the scroll bars showing:
body {
height: 100vh;
overflow: hidden;
margin: 0 0 1px;
}
All modal/lightbox javascript-based systems use an overflow when displaying the modal/lightbox, on html tag or body tag.
When lightbox is show, the js push a overflow hidden on html or body tag.
When lightbox is hidden, some remove the hidden other push a overflow auto on html or body tag.
Developers who work on Mac, do not see the problem of the scrollbar.
Just replace the hidden by an unset not to see the content slipping under the modal of the removal of the scrollbar.
Lightbox open/show:
<html style="overflow: unset;"></html>
Lightbox close/hide:
<html style="overflow: auto;"></html>
If the page under the overlayer can be "fixed" at the top, when you open the overlay you can set
.disableScroll { position: fixed; overflow-y:scroll }
provide this class to the scrollable body, you should still see the right scrollbar but the content is not scrollable.
To maintain the position of the page do this in jquery
$('body').css('top', - ($(window).scrollTop()) + 'px').addClass('disableScroll');
When you close the overlay just revert these properties with
var top = $('body').position().top;
$('body').removeClass('disableScroll').css('top', 0).scrollTop(Math.abs(top));
I just proposed this way only because you wouldn't need to change any scroll event
This will stop the viewport jumping to the top by saving the scroll position and restoring it on enabling scrolling.
CSS
.no-scroll{
position: fixed;
width:100%;
min-height:100vh;
top:0;
left:0;
overflow-y:scroll!important;
}
JS
var scrollTopPostion = 0;
function scroll_pause(){
scrollTopPostion = $(window).scrollTop();
$("body").addClass("no-scroll").css({"top":-1*scrollTopPostion+"px"});
}
function scroll_resume(){
$("body").removeClass("no-scroll").removeAttr("style");
$(window).scrollTop(scrollTopPostion);
}
Now all you need to do is to call the functions
$(document).on("click","#DISABLEelementID",function(){
scroll_pause();
});
$(document).on("click","#ENABLEelementID",function(){
scroll_resume();
});
The position: fixed; solution has a drawback - the page jumps to the top when this style is applied. Angular's Material Dialog has a nice solution, where they fake the scroll position by applying positioning to the html element.
Below is my revised algorithm for vertical scrolling only. Left scroll blocking is done in the exact same manner.
// This class applies the following styles:
// position: fixed;
// overflow-y: scroll;
// width: 100%;
const NO_SCROLL_CLASS = "bp-no-scroll";
const coerceCssPixelValue = value => {
if (value == null) {
return "";
}
return typeof value === "string" ? value : `${value}px`;
};
export const blockScroll = () => {
const html = document.documentElement;
const documentRect = html.getBoundingClientRect();
const { body } = document;
// Cache the current scroll position to be restored later.
const cachedScrollPosition =
-documentRect.top || body.scrollTop || window.scrollY || document.scrollTop || 0;
// Cache the current inline `top` value in case the user has set it.
const cachedHTMLTop = html.style.top || "";
// Using `html` instead of `body`, because `body` may have a user agent margin,
// whereas `html` is guaranteed not to have one.
html.style.top = coerceCssPixelValue(-cachedScrollPosition);
// Set the magic class.
html.classList.add(NO_SCROLL_CLASS);
// Return a function to remove the scroll block.
return () => {
const htmlStyle = html.style;
const bodyStyle = body.style;
// We will need to seamlessly restore the original scroll position using
// `window.scroll`. To do that we will change the scroll behavior to `auto`.
// Here we cache the current scroll behavior to restore it later.
const previousHtmlScrollBehavior = htmlStyle.scrollBehavior || "";
const previousBodyScrollBehavior = bodyStyle.scrollBehavior || "";
// Restore the original inline `top` value.
htmlStyle.top = cachedHTMLTop;
// Remove the magic class.
html.classList.remove(NO_SCROLL_CLASS);
// Disable user-defined smooth scrolling temporarily while we restore the scroll position.
htmlStyle.scrollBehavior = bodyStyle.scrollBehavior = "auto";
// Restore the original scroll position.
window.scroll({
top: cachedScrollPosition.top
});
// Restore the original scroll behavior.
htmlStyle.scrollBehavior = previousHtmlScrollBehavior;
bodyStyle.scrollBehavior = previousBodyScrollBehavior;
};
};
The logic is very simple and can be simplified even more if you don't care about certain edge cases. For example, this is what I use:
export const blockScroll = () => {
const html = document.documentElement;
const documentRect = html.getBoundingClientRect();
const { body } = document;
const screenHeight = window.innerHeight;
// Only do the magic if document is scrollable
if (documentRect.height > screenHeight) {
const cachedScrollPosition =
-documentRect.top || body.scrollTop || window.scrollY || document.scrollTop || 0;
html.style.top = coerceCssPixelValue(-cachedScrollPosition);
html.classList.add(NO_SCROLL_CLASS);
return () => {
html.classList.remove(NO_SCROLL_CLASS);
window.scroll({
top: cachedScrollPosition,
behavior: "auto"
});
};
}
};
I have made this one function, that solves this problem with JS.
This principle can be easily extended and customized that is a big pro for me.
Using this js DOM API function:
const handleWheelScroll = (element) => (event) => {
if (!element) {
throw Error("Element for scroll was not found");
}
const { deltaY } = event;
const { clientHeight, scrollTop, scrollHeight } = element;
if (deltaY < 0) {
if (-deltaY > scrollTop) {
element.scrollBy({
top: -scrollTop,
behavior: "smooth",
});
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
}
return;
}
if (deltaY > scrollHeight - clientHeight - scrollTop) {
element.scrollBy({
top: scrollHeight - clientHeight - scrollTop,
behavior: "smooth",
});
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
return;
}
};
In short, this function will stop event propagation and default behavior if the scroll would scroll something else then the given element (the one you want to scroll in).
Then you can hook and unhook this up like this:
const wheelEventHandler = handleWheelScroll(elementToScrollIn);
window.addEventListener("wheel", wheelEventHandler, {
passive: false,
});
window.removeEventListener("wheel", wheelEventHandler);
Watch out for that it is a higher order function so you have to keep a reference to the given instance.
I hook the addEventListener part in mouse enter and unhook the removeEventListener in mouse leave events in jQuery, but you can use it as you like.
Iโ€™ve noticed that the YouTube website does exactly this. So by inspecting it a bit Iโ€™ve been able to determine that theyโ€™re using #polymer/iron-overlay-behavior and fortunately, it can be used rather unobtrusively outside of web components/Polymer:
import {
pushScrollLock,
removeScrollLock,
} from '#polymer/iron-overlay-behavior/iron-scroll-manager';
// lock scroll everywhere except scrollElement
pushScrollLock(scrollElement);
// restore scrolling
removeScrollLock(scrollElement);
Allows scrolling in selected element
Doesn't mess with styling in any way
Is battle-tested on YouTube website
It seems like a mature solution and surely the best I was able to find. The package is a bit heavy but I guess much of it become unbundled, when importing just the iron-scroll-manager.

I have some other fixed elements in the page and setting body's position to fixed caused a bunch of other problems, so I did it in a hacky way:
const scrollbarWidth = window.innerWidth - document.documentElement.clientWidth;
// on opening modal
document.body.style.overflow = "hidden"
document.body.style.paddingRight = `${scrollbarWidth}px`
// on closing modal
document.body.style.overflow = "unset",
document.body.style.paddingRight = "0px"
The idea is to add a padding-right with the same width as browser's scrollbar, to mimick a fake scrollbar and prevent the content shift.
Crude but working way will be to force the scroll back to top, thus effectively disabling scrolling:
var _stopScroll = false;
window.onload = function(event) {
document.onscroll = function(ev) {
if (_stopScroll) {
document.body.scrollTop = "0px";
}
}
};
When you open the lightbox raise the flag and when closing it,lower the flag.

}
window.scrollTo({ top });
setIsOpen(() => !!yesno);
}, [top]
);
return (
<BlanketContext.Provider

isOpen,
setIsOpen: handleSetIsOpen,
color: color || `rgba(0,0,0,0.5)`,
zIndex: zIndex || 200

}
function Blanket({

}: PropsWithChildren) {
const {

{isOpen && (

)}

use it like:
// app
<BlanketProvider color='red'>
<YourView />
</BlanketProvider>
// YourView
...
const { isOpen, setIsOpen } = useBlanket();
return (
<>
<Blanket>
{isOpen && <SomeThingWithHigherZindex />}
</Blanket>
<Button onClick={() => setIsOpen(true)}>Do A Thing</Button>
</>
)
When setting isOpen to true, we track the current scroll from top and store it.
We only set it on the body styles if we're opening, because what we do next will cause window.scrollY to be 0.
Then we test if the document is taller than the viewport.
If it is then we set the Y overflow to scroll to ensure that the scrollbar doesn't vanish and that there's no layout reflow jump.
Set body to position fixed, preventing it from scrolling and ensure that the document is at the correct scrolling position in order to counteract position: fixed;
You can do it with Javascript:
// Classic JS
window.onscroll = function(ev) {
ev.preventDefault();
}
// jQuery
$(window).scroll(function(ev) {
ev.preventDefault();
}
And then disable it when your lightbox is closed.
But if your lightbox contains a scroll bar, you won't be able to scroll while it's open. This is because window contains both body and #lightbox.
So you have to use an architecture like the following one:
<body>
<div id="global"></div>
<div id="lightbox"></div>
</body>
And then apply the onscroll event only on #global.
I solved this problem with a scrollLock method that set up listeners for scroll wheel events and key down events, and a preventScroll method that handled the events. Something like this:
preventScroll = function (e) {
// prevent scrollwheel events
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
// prevent keydown events
var keys = [32, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, 39, 40];
if (keys.includes(e.keyCode)) {
e.preventDefault();
}
return false;
}
scrollLock = function (lock) {
if (lock) {
document.querySelector("#container").addEventListener("wheel", preventScroll);
document.addEventListener("keydown", preventScroll);
}
else {
document.querySelector("#container").removeEventListener("wheel", preventScroll);
document.querySelector("#container").removeEventListener("keydown", preventScroll);
}
}
