I have a fixed width datagrid being built programatically, and am trying to put a header over top of it that will scroll with it. I can't do it as part of the grid as that destroys the fixed width of the cells.
I would like to be able to scroll the top div as the scrollbar for the DataGrid scrolls. This seems how the header works already, so it should be possible. I just can't figure out how to link/attach it.
Ok, I figured it out... if anyone is interested. You need to extend _View to include what you want to update. The hardest part about this is getting the div structure laid out so it works in IE and FF, just really duplicated what was there for the datagrid header that was already being scrolled. Here is the declare:
dojo.declare("custom.View", dojox.grid._View, {
doscroll: function(inEvent) {
this.inherited(arguments);
var customHeader = dojo.byId('customGridHeader');
if (customHeader) {
customHeader.scrollLeft = this.scrollboxNode.scrollLeft;
}
},
update: function(){
this.inherited(arguments);
var customHeader = dojo.byId('customGridHeader');
if (customHeader) {
customHeader.scrollLeft = this.scrollboxNode.scrollLeft;
}
}
});

im trying to make the content inside of an event in the Fullcalendar sticky. When you scroll in the calendar the content of the events should be visible as long as the event isn't out of the view.
I tried it with simple css but that doesn't work, see for yourself:
.fc-event .fc-content {
position:sticky;
top:0;
}
https://codepen.io/snak3/pen/KZKNMd
Has anyone an idea how to get this working or isn't it that easy?
It's not possible to use position:sticky out of the box, but here's an example of how you might go about it with js (add this to the end of your script):
const content = document.querySelectorAll('.fc-event .fc-content')[1];
const scroller = document.querySelector('.fc-scroller');
scroller.addEventListener("scroll", function() {
if (scroller.scrollTop > 100) {
content.style.position = "fixed";
content.style.top = "130px";
}
else {
content.style.position = "unset";
}
});
Obviously the selector and top values are very specific. You can use js to calculate the appropriate top distance for each event, and apply it for each scroll proc. That is a lot of work though.
In Firefox especially, I've run into an issue I can't figure out how to fix.
On the following page, when scrolling down the page jumps several times - mainly on smaller screens where the page doesn't have its full size displayed. You can replicate this issue by making your browser smaller than the page so you have to scroll.
It's on this page: http://www.nucanoe.com/frontier-accessories/
If I disable the position:fixed on the navigation selector, it fixes the issue - but we need the navigation to be sticky. Is there a solution to fix this? I'm thinking we may need to use jQuery somehow.
Thanks in advance!
After seeing you asking for help on another answer, I will try and explain more clearly for you.
The Problem
Your problem is when you add position:fixed to the navigation bar, it removes it from its place and sticks it at the top of the page. This is why the rest of your content jumps up - because the navigation bar is not where it was anymore.
How To Fix
You can get around this by wrapping your navigation element in a new div - let's call it nav-wrapper - and set its height to the same as your navigation element. These are known as placeholder elements. This new wrapper and your original navigation bar must always be the same height for the 'jump' to disappear.
<div class="nav-wrapper" style="height:80px;"> <-- add this
<div class="your-original-nav" style="height:80px"></div>
</div> <!-- add this
Now, when you set the navigation bar to fixed and it disappears to the top, the new wrapper we created with the same height keeps the page's content the same. When the fixed class has been removed, it sits back in the wrapper again, without pushing the content down.
A Suggestion
From what I can see on your site, there will be a big gap where the navigation bar was until the new fixed navigation reaches that point and covers it. What you want, is a little jQuery to figure out where to make the navigation fixed and where to hide it. I'll explain:
// cache the element
var $navBar = $('.your-original-nav');
// find original navigation bar position
var navPos = $navBar.offset().top;
// on scroll
$(window).scroll(function() {
// get scroll position from top of the page
var scrollPos = $(this).scrollTop();
// check if scroll position is >= the nav position
if (scrollPos >= navPos) {
$navBar.addClass('fixed');
} else {
$navBar.removeClass('fixed');
}
});
You may want to add further functionality to this example, as it is very, very basic. You would probably want to recalculate the offsets on window resize as one addition.
A Demo
This is a little demo which might help you - I was bored and feeling helpful :)
Made it this way now: Added an element before the nav:
<div class="nav-placeholder"></div>
And the jquery:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).on("scroll",function(){
if($(document).scrollTop()>150){
$(".nav-placeholder").height($(".nav").outerHeight());
} else {
$(".nav-placeholder").height(0);
}
});
</script>
When I scroll down to 150 the placeholder gets the height of the nav, when i scroll up again I set it's height to 0.
Here is a fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/herrfischerhamburg/562wu62y/
You need to have a placeholder when your nav goes from relative to fixed.
Therefore you need to make a new div.
jQuery(".nav").wrap('<div class="nav-placeholder"></div>');
jQuery(".nav-placeholder").height(jQuery(".nav").outerHeight());
jQuery(".nav").wrapInner('<div class="nav-inner"></div>');
Remember to change ".nav", "nav-inner" and "nav-placeholder" to your desire.

I solved the problem differently so on firefox as you can see in logs it scroll up itself so to stop this scrolling I made simple statement
$(document).ready(function () {
var header = $('#left-menu');
var offset = header.offset().top;
var up = true;
$(window).scroll(function () {
var scroll = $(window).scrollTop();
console.log(scroll + ' ' + offset )
if (scroll >= offset) {
header.addClass('sidebar-sticky');
if (up){
$(window).scrollTop(offset);
up=false;
}
} else {
up=true;
header.removeClass('sidebar-sticky');
}
});
});
that solution work for me when I can't specify height of div's I use.
I have managed to use the position:fixed setting of CSS/CSS3 before and worked quite well!
I saw this a few days ago and was wondering how did they achieve the effect that happens when you scroll down, where the menu bar is in one position before you scroll and then goes to the top where it locks itself down.
See link - http://www.cssportal.com/ < scroll down on any page and observe the top blue menu.
I have tried to look in the source of the page but I cant make head or tails.
Does anyone know what this effect is called?
It's done with javascript, to add a css class that contains position:fixed and other positioning styles to achieve what you want.
It's not complicated. Here is a jquery plugin: http://stickyjs.com/
This is how I did it a few years ago:
var menu_bar = $("#menu");
var top = menu_bar.offset().top;
var detached = false;
$(window).scroll(function (e) {
if ($(this).scrollTop() >= top) {
if (!detached) {
detached = true;
menu_bar.addClass('fixed');
}
} else {
if (detached) {
detached = false;
menu_bar.removeClass('fixed');
}
}
});
I have a side bar that contains two divs. The first div may or may not have content, depending on what else is done on the page. The second div contains a long list of things and has a limited height, so scrolling is possible. I want to have the sidebar be as tall as the page, and I want the list container in the sidebar to be as tall as the sidebar minus the height of the header (which will change while using the page). I don't care about limiting the size of the header. The biggest is will get isn't anything significant.
Right now I'm just setting the height of the list container to be some number that is won't go over a maximized window height if the header div as as much content as it can, but this leaves an empty space at the bottom when the header is empty, and still doesn't work very well if the window is resized.
The layout is similar to this.
Is there a css solution to what I'm looking for, or will I have to use javascript and get window height/set div heights in pixels? I'm fine with either, it just seemed like there should be a CSS way to accomplish it.
If you're not opposed to using a little jQuery, here's a little code snippet that should help you equalize the height of the two divs, no matter which has more content. You can change it to your liking too.
var leftHeight = $(".left").height();
var rightHeight = $(".right").height();
var maxHeight = 0;
var div = "";
if (leftHeight >= rightHeight)
{
maxHeight = leftHeight;
div = ".right";
}
else
{
maxHeight = rightHeight;
div = ".left";
}
$(div).each(function(){
if ($(this).height() > maxHeight) { maxHeight = $(this).height(); }
});
$(div).height(maxHeight);
and credit where credit is due, this is an edit of a code snipped found at css-tricks.com
is this what you want?

CSS tips:
If you use 'absolute' positioning, width,height,left,top, etc... is relative to the first ancestor that has a "position" property other than "static", or the body if nothing is there.
for static menus, it is common to use 'position:fixed' as it will simplify scrolling issues
When using jquery its easier(and faster) to toggle a class than to change the DOM since that requires redrawing of the elements by the browser
-edit: for refreshing the sidebar size some javascript is necessary:
$('#headerAdd , #headerRemove').click( function()
{$('#sideContainer').height($(window).height()-$("#header").height());
} );
Try setting the height of your list container to 100%, and your overflow to scroll:
#listContainer {
height: 100%;
overflow: scroll;
}
This will keep the list in a scrollpane that reaches to the bottom of the page, no matter how large the header grows or shrinks.
I've got a list with list-style-none which needs to be able to add new items to itself via Ajax and have the background expand appropriately when it does. Adding via Ajax is easy, but every solution I try for the background fails me. I don't know if it's even possible; is it? I'm using a grid like this one:
http://jqueryui.com/demos/sortable/#display-grid
Both WebKit and Firebug are showing me skinny, empty bars when I hover over the enclosing divs and/or the enclosing ul tag. It appears that the minute you set a list loose with list-style-none and float:wherever, you give up control over its background. But that can't be right.
This is something I've run into a number of times. The problem is that floated elements aren't part of the normal box model, so they don't cause their parent elements to expand unless their parent elements are also floated. So if possible, float the ul or containing div.
Edit:
See quirksmode for another css-only workaround.
Could you provide a sample of your code? Also, why does the list have display:none set?
For instance, should be as simple as this:
HTML:
<ul id="dest"></ul>
JS:
// Simplified example, most likely wrapped in $.ajax
// This is the AJAX response function
function(data, response) {
var items = json.parse(data);
$.each(items, function() {
// Assumes item has a name property
$('#dest').append($('<li>' + this.name + '</li>'));
});
}
Should be just that simple. You shouldn't need the hide the list initially, as you can simply append list items and have the display update appropriately.
Hope that helps.
You need to explicitly set the width and height for the area.
Check out this link for Horizontal Scrolling: http://valums.com/scroll-menu-jquery/
Here is the script:
$(function(){
//Get our elements for faster access and set overlay width
var div = $('div.sc_menu'),
ul = $('ul.sc_menu'),
// unordered list's left margin
ulPadding = 15;
//Get menu width
var divWidth = div.width();
//Remove scrollbars
div.css({overflow: 'hidden'});
//Find last image container
var lastLi = ul.find('li:last-child');
//When user move mouse over menu
div.mousemove(function(e){
//As images are loaded ul width increases,
//so we recalculate it each time
var ulWidth = lastLi[0].offsetLeft + lastLi.outerWidth() + ulPadding;
var left = (e.pageX - div.offset().left) * (ulWidth-divWidth) / divWidth;
div.scrollLeft(left);
});
});
Basically, you need to update the ulWidth and divWidth when you add the new item.
Then just set the background image to repeat horizontally and you should be set.
ul.sc_menu {background:transparent url(image.png) repeat scroll 0 0;height:100px}
Note: You will need to set the height; otherwise you will not see the background because the li are floated.
For dealing with the float element, maybe you should know it's characteristic, gotcha, and how to deal with it.
