Jquery :: Scroll Some Text Inside A Div With Overflow?
Jan 20, 2011
This supposed to be simple, but I don't really know jQuery in order to implement this the proper way.All I want is to create a div with some text inside. The div will be overflowed some text will be visible.So all I want to do is to create to small links "up" and "down" so when the visitor clicks on then the text scrolls up or down. like this effect hereI tried to do some search ... but all I find are plugins and scrollers to create carousels or so
I want to test if I get a overflow in a fixed sized div and in that case add 'overflow:scroll' to the div. I guess there is a way to check if a generated contents (from PHP) will create an overflow but how?
I have a DIV with hegiht 500 px and overflow:scroll. I have 34000 A tags in it(each new line). Every A tag has its own ID. I want to scroll to these a tags so I need to know their position. How to find these?
In order to make my site scalable (down to 1024x768), I need four layers to vertically scroll so that their contents doesn't force the main page to scroll. However, on higher resolutions, there'll be more space below the layers which means I don't necessarily want the layers to scroll if there's enough space to fit the text in.
I've tried CSS - I had to specify a height of 250px (the most I can use before main-page-scrolling takes effect in 1024x768) and set overflow: auto. The problem with this is that this is static formatting - no matter what resolution I use, the layers are always going to scroll because the height has been set to 250px.
So I was wondering if there's a way, either a CSS property/function (or maybe this can only be done in java script) - to make the layers scroll only if there's a risk of the main page scrolling?Or do I need to attack this with a crowbar and have a separate style sheet for every single resolution where I specify the height of the layers for each one?
I have three columns from the css on my webpage, I have some text that is overflow:hidden in the first column and two empty columns next to it. My question is how could I use jQuery to make the text overflow onto the next columns rather than hidden in the first column.
Does JQuery support multiple lines ellipsis for overflow text? That is, for example, Original text: This is a question about multiple lines ellipsis using JQuery Desired text: This is a question about, multiple lines ellipsis ... If yes, how to use it?
I have a Superfish Menu hover and text overflow issues due to special characters from foreign languages. In English or a language without special characters the menu and hover expand properly but with special characters you get text overflow and a hover with a negative right margin.
I'm currently building a website that has a flash fullscreen popup at the beginning. The flash popup loads fullscreen, therefor I've set overflow-y to hidden. As soon as the flash popup is done, it removes the div it the flash is in using javascript, but I can't figure out how to put the overflow-y to visible.
I'm assuming I need to build a Javascript function to show overflow-y visible, and then need to call to that function from the flash file. I just can't figure out how to build the javascript function since I suck at javascript.
All the CSS is in the original file, so not in an external stylesheet, this needs to stay that way because I have to implement the code in to several different web sites.
I'm trying to build a simple "teleprompter" type web page for use on my tablet PC. I have the page constructed so that the words appear inside a div of fixed height, overflow hidden. I would like to have a simple "play button" along a fixed top menu that starts the words scrolling up inside the div below. I'll need to be able to hard code the speed of the scroll for now. I really don't know where to start on this one... it doesn't need to be complicated... just needs to work on the javascript-capable browser of an android-based tablet.
Say I have a text area. When the user clicks a button the entered text displays in a DIV. If there's too much text to fit in that DIV then the overflow text (the text that doesn't fit in the first DIV) displays in an adjacent DIV.
Is there a way to know if there's "overflowing" text and, if there is, if there a way to know what that text is?
I have a width limited box on a website that contains text. Normally the text will break across several lines as expect just fine. However, every now and then there is a really long word that breaks out of the box:
Code: |--------------------------| | Some would say that |
how to make an image/text to scroll as the user scroll the page also? for example if the user scrolls down image/text also scrolls down and when the user scrolls up image/text also scrolls up..
i have a div of height 500px and width 800px. i have set it as auto on over flow and usually i have 500 records displayed so it scrolls. lets say i trigger an even on row number 478 inside that scrollable div and that event causes a page reload, can i go back to that same position in side that div? how?
I am trying to work out if this is possible: I have some html/text that I want to break apart into different elements (div tags), only one div tag should be visible/shown and at the bottom of the element are the number of "pages" (01/02/03/04...), each of these "pages" is actually just the next div element, the user can click on the "page number" so they can move to the next element (hidden initially) by using javascript to change which element should be displayed. Clicking on the the "page" will bring up that particular chunk of text. The div element is a specific size (width and height), and thats why only a certain amount of text can fit into it. These elements will be created dynamically from a database.
Right now I can do this by either manually forcing the user to break the text apart themselves by entering the text/html using multiple WYSIWYG editor text areas and giving them a rough amount of characters they can use and/or only allowing a certain amount of characters per textarea....Another alternative I thought of was to use php cut up the text into pieces and place them into divs by counting the number of characters based on the which font is theoretically being employed (I have a javascript script to detect if a particular font is available - how reliable it is I have yet to determine). But I was hoping that there was a solution in javascript to automatically detect when the text overflows and generate/change the number of divs, split the html/text up into the correct number of pieces and RE-generate the internal div page numbers (01/02/03/04...).
I guess there a number of problems with this idea that may stop it from being practical, such as which browser is being used, which font is being used and how the user has their text size set on their browser window... and probably other things I am not thinking of. I was hoping that by detecting if the text overflowed something could be done, but perhaps it is too complicated? Is there something out there that can do this? Is it possible? Perhaps too there are other solutions to the problem, either ones that are already out there or one that has to be built from scratch? I guess in the end my question is, is there a cleaner way of breaking the text apart in javascript by using overflow or something similar than doing it by counting characters with a server-side language?
To synchronize the vertical scroll of the following "left" and "right" divs only when the beginning and end of each "blahN " div is reached inside the left div. Both divs have a finite height, which basically insures that the scroll bar will be present. The left div outputs text-based content from various database procedures while the right div outputs images corresponding to the text. The text is nothing more than pages from the website and as you can see inside the left div, each is encapsulated within a subsequent div with an incremental class (i.e.- "blah1", "blah2", and so forth.) When one scrolls through each "blah" content inside of the left div, I would like the right div to output the image that corresponds to the text (again, this data comes from the website through previous transactions.) Here's an example: John Doe comes to the website and starts reading the various pages listed inside the left div.
There might be 2 pages loaded inside the left div, or, there might be 20, but in any event, when he loads the entire page containing all this, the first page will be displayed along with the first pages' image. When he scrolls past this first entry (page) inside the left div, the corresponding image related to it inside the MySQL database is then output as well over in the right div and so on with every other "blahN " piece of content. Right now, the jQuery I'm using has synchronized both divs to scroll at the same time, regardless of specific waypoints that might be reached per-scrolling.
Here's the basic markup I'm using right now:
<div class="left"> <?php foreach($obj->field_page_objs as $k1=>$v1){
[code]....
few other websites and the responsiveness has been minimal-to-nonexistent. I'm sure this is because of both how I've explained the problem combined with the overall difficulty (or niche-ness) it introduces. In any event, I apologize beforehand if this carries over into this website.
Is it possible, that when I click and hold down my mouse button inside a div it will scroll depending on which way I move my mouse? What I'm after is a bit like the hand tool in photoshop when you are zoomed in.
Is it possible to have an iFrame set at 100% so that you will not need to scroll up or down inside the actual page? I have been searching for a while now and one thing to note is that the source file is from another web site (with permission) and is https on an http page. The code works fine but I cant seem to get the 100% height.
I have a div 500 px high with text in it. The text takes up more space the provided and I wanted the DIV or text to scroll up as the mouse neared the bottom of the div.
Is there a jquery plugin that can scroll text in a div vertically?I have div with a set height that is filled with more content than can be seen.I'm looking for a way to vertically scroll the text or some way to page thru the content.
I have some code below that I use in a contact form. Initially each text box has a default value, and when focus is placed on the text area, the entry disappears. What I would like to do is scroll the entries to the left, but I don’t know how to do that. I tried sliddToggle, but that doesn’t work.
Is jquery the right language to do this in? If it is, can someone point me to a relevant tutorial or example to get me started? Iwantthe text of my site to flow around a fixed background image while scrolling. Doesn't sound too hard but I can't find anything that will do that. I'm starting to think it may need tobe a flash solution. I'ts easy to float the text and some sandbag divs to make the text wrap around the image, but there is no CSS solution to make that text flow around those sandbags while scrolling. Here's a cap with the sandbags outlined to give you a visual of what I'm trying to do:
Specifically, assume I have a div tag of absolute dimensions. I need to figure out, first, whether or not the text inside the div tag is partially hidden by the overflow setting, and if so, what the hidden text is.
Is this even possible? Obviously, the rendering engine in the browser "knows" this information, but is it accessible through Javascript?
