my problem is, the overflow which i set to auto is not working. the div keeps on enlarging its height everytime i click the button. seems like it has a conflict with innerhtml?
Copy the following code and run it in IE and Firefox. In IE, you can see it works pretty damn good, with the center column using a div with "overflow". That is what I want!
Now, in Firefox, it doesn't work like that probably because it's doing it the RIGHT way
So, with that said, can any of you javascript guru's think of anything that we can use some JS to force the middle div to use that scrollbar when the content gets past the initial browser height? Code:
I believe this is a Firefox bug but I was hoping someone found a workaround.
I have implemented drag and drop functionality, but if I try to drag an element from a div that happens to have a div with an "overflow: auto" it seems to lose the onmouseover event for my target.
Anyone come across this issue and found a resolution?
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 a div with the ID dropContainer, which has a fixed size and overflow:auto. In that div are some droppable list items.An Example is here:[URL]
However, if I drop the green draggable item into the visible area of the dropContainer, everything works allright. But if I drop it below the dropContainer, it is dropped on a invisible droppable item. I tried to fix that problem using a z-index property, but this didn't work.
Is there a way how I can prevent the invisible items to be droppable?
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 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 textbox in which users can enter some text. And after entering this text I show it for them with help of innerHTML. ( befor it - I replace smiles with <img> tag ) I'v tried to enter some JavaScript there, and have found that it is not working. The question is how safe is that?
why the string comparison test doesn't work in this javascript function? It works if you use just text between the currentItem div tags, but not when you use html for an image. I even tried to use iso characters instead of angle brackets, as in "<img src=expand.png></img>" and still no dice. Why not?
Is it because of the way innerHTML manages html and it's not really a string? Is it because it doesn't have all the tags and some other representation?
I'm having an issue with Firefox and the innerHTML code. My index file has the following html body code in it: Code: <div id="testBox" style="text-align: center; color:white;"> test text </div>
Then, in a separate html document loaded through an iframe, I have the following code that works great in IE but not in Firefox: Code: <SCRIPT type="text/javascript"> function ChangeML(){ parent.testBox.innerHTML ='text has been changed'; }; </script>
The function ChangeML is called on a click event using MooTools, but I figured that part isn't what's causing the problems because everything else works fine. No error seems to be reported ... it just skips right over this piece of code.
I have a form that is shown depending on some criteria. If the criteria are met, I use innerHTML to swap it in. When a button is pressed, the info on the form is checked with javascript - if it passes the check I use innerHTML again to change the button to '...'.
This works fine on Firefox and Safari - the problem is that it doesn't work when I test it with my iPad (iOS 4.3). The button stays the exact same and the javascript seems to stall on the line where I execute the innerHTML. Up to this point, innerHTML on mobile Safari seemed to work the exact same way as MacOS Safari. On my iPad, the innerHTML swaps out this button if the event is triggered from a different button, but not from id="submitbutton" itself.I tested another method - disabling the button. Same issue - works on MacOS Safari/Firefox but not on mobile Safari on my iPad when using onClick from itself.
code snippets Form (it is a string since using innerHTML=) ...form content... <div id="submitarea" class="center">
I am trying to make the jQuery Cycle Plugin - Auto-pager work, but it hasn't worked for me. The first image displays, but it just will not change and display the pagnition.
Using the very basic jqModal example, isn't it supposed to auto size and auto center the modal on the page? I placed a table that was wider than the modal's default settings and it's off the page and does not create scroll bars on the page to see the hidden section of the modal.
The default class is
Now, I know I can change the width of the modal but what about the positioning?
how I might use JavaScript to detect the overflow of text in a DIV. Currently, I have the CSS set to Code:
overflow:auto
However, having scroll bars are pretty tacky. Instead, I'd like to be able to detect the overflow, which would then add a small <a href> link that says "More."
I discovered this really great jQuery plugin which adds a scroll to top link to every page (implemented through my CMS) - http://blog.ph-creative.com/post/jQu...ll-to-Top.aspxIn Firefox its fine but in IE after going through a few pages I start to get an alert box which says "Stack overflow at line: 13". I understand that this may be caused by an infinite loop but being a JS novice I'm kinda lost as to where to start.
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?
When loading my web page I'm getting this error"stack overflow at line 0"What can be the reason for that? Is it related to the images I'm using in my site?
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 |
Is there any way to test if there is overflow in a text area (i.e. a scrollbar is displayed)? This is a read only field so I could change the textarea to a div if necessary.
