Is there a way to have content hidden in the way that overflow: hidden; does without hiding the scroll bars? I'm trying to make a site with a video background, and to make the video still fit on the screen properly on differently sized screens or screens with different aspect ratios, I need to hide some of the video off the screen at some times. I've been doing that like so:
.video-background {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
z-index: 0;
}
However, I noticed that this method hides the browser scroll bars, creating a space on the right side of the browser window which only displays video that would be "under" the scroll bar (hidden off of the page by overflow: hidden;), but the rest of the site does not extend to that extra space. It is still possible to scroll using the mouse wheel, but the bar does not appear.
Instead of position:absolute try position:fixed
Why dont you try
overflow : scroll;
or
overflow : visible;

I have been trying to set my footer in my web for a while with no luck..
The footer sticking to the bottom of the screen, and if there is scroll-bar, so when I scroll down, it will slide up...
I want it to stick to the bottom but not like position: fixed (if there is scroll-bar, then I don't want to see the footer until I scroll to the bottom).
There is 3 main components in my web (header, content and footer).
This is the footer css:
background: #929191;
border-top: 1px black solid;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
text-align: center;
width: 100%;
I have tryed changing html and body to "height: 100%" but the only thing that was almost like I wished for, was when it made the height bigger than the screen.
It was like height: 110% (even though the sum of heights was 100%).
I Tryed to reduce it, until I fit but it every little change in the UI make troubles.
I would very appreciate any help..
Sounds like you are looking for <footer>. Keep in mind it won't work in early versions of Internet Explorer. Here is some more information. Let me know if this works out.
Try this on your footer -
.footer {
position: relative;
bottom: -500px; // you can adjust the negative value
}
I am using ngDialog for my popup windows. I can make it as wide as my whole screen but not as tall. Here is a style I am using:
<style>
.ngdialog.dialogcaseeditor .ngdialog-content {
width: 95%;
height: 100%;
padding-top: 5px;
overflow: auto;
}
</style>
height: 100%; does not even near give a maximum height.
Somewhere in the code then after a dialog is opened I can say something like this:
$dialog.dialog.find('.ngdialog-content').css('height', $window.innerHeight);
That will make the the popup window as tall as the whole screen, bu the screen itself will become scrollable, even though the popup does not exceed the screen.
As you can see, there is a vertical scroll bar on the right side.
Can this scroll issue be fixed?
Thanks
You can use CSS to hide scroll bars:
overflow-y: hidden;
overflow-x: hidden;
The title says it all. I have an image with height: 100% inside each of a couple display: inline-block <li> elements. When their container is position: static. All is peachy. But when I change it to position: absolute/fixed, the <li> elements get width of the original image, not the scaled down width even though the image itself has correct dimensions.
This behaves as expected in Chrome, but breaks in Firefox.
Did anyone encounter this behaviour? More importantly, is it possible to fix it without JS?
Background: I am making a responsive position: fixed gallery that fits the screen with image thumbnails covering bottom 20% of the viewport.
Isolated Demo (click the button to toggle position: static/fixed ):

Whole gallery

I finally got it working. It seems that when you declare something with
Position:fixed, left: 0; top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0;
Only chrome recognizes that as "explicitly defined dimensions". Once I added height: 100%; Other browsers caught up. Fortunately the height 100% didn't break the layout even when the content underneath overflowed viewport.

It still breaks uniformily across all browsers when you try to resize the window. I guess, I'll have to calculate the widths by hand with JS
DEMO
Check the demo, is that what you are looking for?
I have added these 2 lines of css to make it work like that:
/* Keep Position fixed at bottom */
#gallery:not(.toggle) { width: 100%; bottom: 0; top: auto; height: 20%; background: transparent; }
#gallery:not(.toggle) .gallery-thumbs{ height: 100%; }
I have simple login box, which is centered to the middle of page (vertical and horizontaly).
Here you can find DEMO for it:
http://encodable.com/uploaddemo/files/login.html
Problem is that everytime I resize browser window manually the content of div (#login-logout-box) is being resized, if someone is trying to view this login form in browser window, which height is lower then 380px, it should add scrollbars to the page. But atm instead of that box is just cutten off. Means that under low resolution this form is partically shown without ability to scroll :S (tryed several phones - Iphone and Android 2.3)
But again I don't want that div to be scrollable but whole page.
I've checked www and stackoverflow for possible answer, but nothing at all, also I'm sorry if question is unclear, I've tryed my best to describe it.
Your code should not be working in any browser at all. As per the W3C Spec, "Boxes with fixed position that are larger than the page area are clipped."
Simply change position: fixed; to position: absolute;
#login-loguout-box {
width: 380px;
height: 380px;
position: absolute;
top: 45%;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -190px;
margin-top: -190px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
border: 2px solid #cacaca;
}
Working Code
Full Screen Demo
Use the overflow setting in css, e.g.
overflow-x: auto; /* for horizontal scrolling*/
overflow-y: auto; /* for vertical scrolling */
Heyo, I'm using a 2000px width image as a background for a 960px width webpage. I am trying to make it so it doesn't show a horizontal scrollbar when a part of the image is to the right of what's visible, but what I'm trying to do is not working for me.
Two IDs are involved. One is 'bg' which has the background image as its background and is positioned where I want it, while the other is 'bg_holder' which contains only 'bg' and which I tried to use to neatly cover the visible web page area and hide its overflow so the part of the background image that is jutting out wouldn't cause a scrollbar. But this does not appear work, as a scrollbar is created when there is a part of the image to the right of the visible web page (but not when it's to the left).
Is there anything wrong with this CSS snippet? Could something outside of this snippet be the source of the problem? Is there another approach I can take?
#bg_holder {
position: absolute;
overflow: hidden;
min-width: 960px;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
right: 0px;
height: 100%;
}
#bg {
background: url(../img/bg.jpg);
position: absolute;
height: 1050px;
width: 2000px;
margin-left: -1366px;
left: 50%;
z-index: -1;
}
To answer your question, by positioning #bg absolutely, you take it out of the document flow / out of it's parent element, so the overflow:hidden has no effect.
As an additional comment, you can position the background image exactly where you want (x, y) when you put it directly in #bg_holder, there doesn't seem to be any need to put the background in a separate div. As far as I can tell at least, but I haven't seen the rest of your code and don't know what you want to achieve exactly.
