CSS - Scrollable Div: Scrollbars Only Show When Resize/click
*edit*
Similar TutorialsI am a novice at web authoring. I am working a jQuery slide show. I would like to make this slide show automatically resize to fit the browser window. But the show is contained in a div element which requires a fixed size in pixels. When I try to substitute percentages for pixel values, the images no longer appear. Please advise if there is a way to accomplish this resizing. Due to a prohibition against posting URLs for new user accounts, I can't provide a link to the slide show I am trying to resize, or a link to an example of the resizing behavior which I would like to emulate. I have just moved to working with layers as opposed tables/cells. Previously i had a table with three cells, at 86%, 4%, and 16% widths so it spanned the screen. The first cell's content only partly fills the cell, so when the browser is resized (made smaller), each cell stays on the same line and the table happily resize to the point where it can no longer get smaller before it wraps text I have tried to replicate this using 3 div's of the same width as the cells, with float left, however, the browser can hardly be resized at all from full screen without the third div moving onto the next line. If i make the 2nd and third divs larger it works slightly better, however the content does not look right in the layers Therefore can anyone point out how i might be able to achieve better DIV resize when the browser resizes please. Thanks very much Ed Hi, I'm having two different issues in Firefox 3 which occur only when pages have a scrollbar. 1) Whenever a page has enough content to be scrollable, the width of the scrollbar throws off the centering of the page. For some reason FF3 treats background image centering differently than centering a div using margin: auto;. This creates a minor 1px difference in centering, but there are image rollovers within the div structure which are meant to align perfectly with the background image and look awful otherwise. 2) I have a footer with a link to the website's site map. When pages have no scrollbar, the link to the site map does not work (no cursor change, hover effects, or page change). The same link works perfectly however on a page that does have a scrollbar (and actually, if you go to a page that doesnt have a scrollbar and then make the browser windows smaller in order to force scrolling, the link works fine). The website I'm working on is: http://sespaintball.com Hi, Before I was using this code for scrollbars for various Style Sheets on FORUMS: Code: .body
{
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #ffff00;
scrollbar-base-color: #0000ff;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #ff0000;
}
Now I've started to work on WEBSITES and this doesn't work with 'em. So. My question is, how can I get a scrollbar effect, I heard it has something to do with div/layer, but I dunno. Can someone plz explain. JamesRP. I'm creating an area that will have code snippets in it, I want it to scroll horizontally (wrapping may make the code inaccurate in some languages), but vertically I want the height of the area to grow dynamically. An example can be seen on this page: http://scratchprojects.com/2006/02/sample_article_tic_tac_toe_p02.php The problem is, in IE, if there is a horizontal scroll bar, it doesn't make quite enough room, so you have to scroll vertically as well. Shrink your browser window so the code snippet at the bottom of the page doesn't fit and you'll see the two scrollbars appear. In Firefox and Opera, just the horizontal scrollbar shows up. Here's the basics of the code: Code: <div class="code">
<pre class="codeblock">Private Sub menuAboutTTT_Click(ByVal sender _
As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles menuAboutTTT.Click
MessageBox.Show("Tic-Tac-Toe v1.0" & vbCrLf & _
"See how this and other programs work at" & _
vbCrLf & "http://www.scratchprojects.com")
End Sub ' menuAboutTTT_Click</pre>
</div>
Here's the style sheet: Code: .code {
text-align: center;
margin: 15px;
}
.codeblock {
text-align: left;
background: #fff;
border: 1px;
border-style: inset;
width: 99%;
height: auto;
overflow: auto;
}
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. I am trying to work out if its possible to have a div with overflow-x but have the height to whatever the height of the content is. Obviously the content won't have a fixed height for me to just set it. At the moment ive just got: <div style="display:block; overflow-x:auto;"> Lots of content here </div> Is this possible? Thanks My ultimate goal: I have some content contained in a scrolling div (overflow:auto). If I hover over one of the links contained within this scrolling div, I would like to get a Netflix-style popup to come up. I want it to overlap over top of the scrolling div. My current attempts have resulted only in the popup content opening within the scrolling div, and making the scrollable region larger. This is not very good as if the user attempts to scroll too see the content they are no longer hovering over the link and the content disappears. Thus, I want the popup to happen outside of the confines of the scrolling div. My test: I have created a test to get down to the basics. In example 1, the blue div overlaps the green one. The green div remains 400px but the blue div overlaps it extends beyond it to 800px. In example 2, I add overflow:auto to the outer (green) div. In this scenario, the outer green div gets enlarged to 800px, only 400 of which is visible, and the rest hidden in the scrollable area. The inner blue div does not overlap the scrollable region so that the full 800px is visible. What I would like to see is for the green div to stay at 400px but have the blue div cover up the scroll bar and overlap the confines of the scrollable region. Is this at all possible? Any help is appreciated. I don't necessarily have to use divs.. anything I can use to get the job done would be great. Example 1: <html><body> <div style="background:green;height:200px;width:400px;z-index:0;position:absolute;"> <div style="background:blue;height:100px;width:800px;z-index:1;position:absolute;"></div> </div> </body></html> Example 2: <html><body> <div style="background:green;height:200px;width:400px;z-index:0;position:absolute;overflow:auto;"> <div style="background:blue;height:100px;width:800px;z-index:1;position:absolute;"></div> </div> </body></html> So, here is the basic gist of what I'm attempting to achieve... Two main fixed-width columns: the one on the left containing my latest blog entry and the one on the right containing a menu of thumbnails. I want the menu column on the right to stop at the height of the left column and use a vertical scroll bar when the thumbnail content is too large to fit. I don't want to use a fixed height for the div containing the thumbnail menu because I want its height to reflect the height of the blog entry on the left. I started out with this tutorial but I don't think it's necessary for my purposes, or even necessarily a good starting point for this type of functionality. TLDR: It currently looks like this, and I want it to look like this. Any ideas? Hello all, I'm designing an element on the page that will be masked (i.e., overflow:hidden). I want it to scroll vertically (if done with the scroll wheel or trackpad) but not display a scrollbar. Any ideas? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much I need two scrollable div inside a table. Please help. Details: The div contains a table that should force it to show the scrollbars. This table inside the div has specific width(1180px). The div on the other hand should have its width set to 100%. As to why i'm using a table for the layout, i'm using a masterpage that uses table. Attempt #1 i set the div width to 1180px. This showed the scrollbar. But i don't want the users to be stuck to this if they have bigger resolution. Attempt #2 i added position: absolute; --> there are scrollbars but the 2 divs are overlapping HTML: Code:
<html>
<head>
<style>
.container
{
border: 2px solid red;
overflow: scroll;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;

I have a page set up with a div overflow set to auto. Works great, until I add a flash file. In firefox etc get no problems, but msie 6 adds a horizontal scrollbar, which seems to scroll just a few pixels. Can anyone help? URL is: http://fostersdev.allit-services.com/test.html Is it possible? The classic Windows bar is so boring.... Hi All, I have a skeleton css site here http://www.10eight-design.co.uk/temp/layout_test_float.htm You'll notice that there is a LR scroll bar at the bottom of the scrollable div. Is there a way to remove this? That's all. Rob I am working on a site with some simple CSS, and working with Firefox as a testing browser for the first time. The site layout has the main content in a 640px DIV that is centered in the browser. I had been driven crazy by what I thought was a bug in my coding, where certain pages would "shift" several pixels to the left. The problem only occurred in FF, not IE6. It wasn't until several possibilities were exhausted that I realized the problem was the scrollbars in FF. The CSS has the following: Code: div {position:relative;margin:auto;width:640px;background-color:orange;text-align:center;clear:both}
Because the margin is set to AUTO, it is centered within 100% of the browser window. When there is no vertical scrollbar, there's no problem. But when that vert scrollbar appears it takes up real estate in the FF window, pushing the centered DIV to the left. Is there a solution for this? I know most of the world uses IE, but I use FF and my sincere hope is that the rest of the world follows. hi, i worked pretty hard yesterday and finally my website works in firefox and internet explorer. for some reason, though, in internet explorer, the scrollbars on the index page are not showing up as coloured, even though it's specified in style.css and newsstyle.css . can anyone tell why i'm getting grey scrollbars, even in IE ? http://www.formone.net . Thanks. Hi! I am trying to insert a nice footer menu into a CSS layout. If I set overflow to auto, I get double vertical scrollbars and a horizontal scrollbar I don't want. If I set it to hidden, I can't scroll to see content. If anyone would help me out of this scrolly mess (probably not complicated, but after a day's battling, I can't figure it out) I'd be very grateful. Just noticed that if I do allow scrolling, the footer menu doesn't scroll with the user. D'oh. Any ideas on that as well?? Code: *{border:0px solid #eee;margin:0;padding:0;list-style:none}

Hi everyone I'm not sure weather this is a CSS issue. For that sake I'm not even sure if it's possible, but I'll take a try Is there any way I can totally remove the scrollbars from a textarea? I've noticed that firefox doesn't show them at all times, but IE seems to show them even when they're not necessary. Hi all, I'm working on a "toolbar" in a site, which users can populate with links and notices as they desire. Since it's possible that they'll put so much into the bar that it wont fit on the screen, I want to make it scroll horizontally - but without scrollbars. I'm hoping to have an area to the left and right of the toolbar that they can mouseover to scroll it in that direction. Here's a pictu I'm not having much luck getting it working, despite trying a few things google turned up... Apparently I can get rid of the scrollbars by having a div with overflow:auto inside one with overflow:hidden... (link) The same site also shows how to only a horizontal scrollbar... (link) I experimented a bit with white-space:nowrap to get the content to stay all on one line, which seems to work in FF (stays on one line inside the horizontally scrolling div) but not IE (stays on one line but stretches the div size)... Any ideas? Hi, I have a div that I've styled with CSS so that it will have an horizontal scrollbar. The CSS for it is: Code:
#thumbs {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 130px;
overflow-x: scroll;
overflow-y: hidden;
text-align: center;
}
For some reason, this works on all browsers except Safari for Mac. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ralph Hi, I have a div that I've styled with CSS so that it will have an horizontal scrollbar. The CSS for it is: Code:
