How Would I Discover The Text In A Block Element Hidden By Overflow:hidden Style Being Set?

Sep 20, 2005

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?

Setting DocumentElement.style.overflow = 'hidden' Jolts To Top Of Page?

Mar 2, 2011

I have a pop-up window system on my site that shows an absolutely-positioned div over the entire page as a "pop up" of sorts when someone clicks a link. I use this simple line of Javascript to disable page scrolling when a "pop up" box is opened by a user:

document.documentElement.style.overflow = document.body.style.overflow = 'hidden';

The problem is that when a user is scrolled down on a page and clicks a link to bring up one of my pop up boxes, when the overflow is set to 'hidden' to disable scrolling, the page "jolts" back up to the top (similar as to what would happen if someone clicked an <a> element with href="#" ). However, the links are not actually links, but span tags that are programmed with JS to trigger the scrollbar to be disabled when clicked, so that is not the culprit here. I've narrowed the problem down to that one line of code which I posted earlier. Apparently, setting the documentElement overflow style to 'hidden' scrolls the user to the top of the page automatically along with "disabling" the scroll bar on the page.

I am wondering if there is a way to prevent this jolting to the top of the page each time that JS code is triggered. I don't want users to have to scroll back down to where they were each time they open a pop up dialogue box on my site, as this would be detrimental for usability purposes.

Removinng Overflow-y Hidden/setting Overflow-y Visible?

Nov 12, 2010

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.

IE7 Ignores 'overflow:hidden' When Moving Element

Dec 2, 2009

In the top right of the page is a JavaScript (Prototype) Carousel that scrolls through images when you click the arrows. It works properly in all browsers except IE 6 & 7 (it does work properly in IE 8) with my primary concern being IE 7. When you click on the right arrow to scroll to the next image it scrolls properly but the entire strip of images is displayed and it sites on top of the page's content.I've tried all of the overflow:hidden hacks I could find so.

JQuery :: Animate:scrollTop Blocked By Overflow:hidden In Chrome?

Dec 4, 2010

I've been trying to implement a smooth scrolling animation in my page, which works fine in firefox and IE8 (haven't tested any older versions yet). But doesn't seem to work in google chrome (and probably safari either I guess). I have 4 divs on my page, positioned absolutely 2 by 2, only one div should be visible at a time, so the body has gotten an overflow:hidden. When an anchor-link to one of those divs is clicked the javascript gets its position,then scrolls towards it. etting the position works, but the scrolling does not work in chrome.

Now, when I remove 'overflow: hidden' from the body element, the scrolling does work in chrome, but of course adds the scrollbars which I don't want.

Browser Slow To Change State Of Elements When Style Changed To Hidden

Jan 17, 2006

'When my form is submitted, I have onsubmit pointed to the following
code snippet. But, the button is not actually set to disabled and the
style.visibility changes are not made for several seconds. It appears
that it goes into validateForm and doing the rest of this snippet
before the browser makes the changes.

How can I get the browser to immediately make the UI change?

function submitForm(servleturl) {
var submitbuttonelem = document.getElementById("submit");
submitbuttonelem.disabled = true;
document.getElementById("modgradeform").style.visibility="hidden";
var mydiv = document.getElementById("contentarea");
mydiv.innerHTML = "Validating the form.";
mydiv.style.visibility="visible";
var ret = validateForm();

JQuery :: Accessing Content Of Style Tag In Head?

Jan 18, 2010

I'm trying to access the contents of a style tag in an ajax loaded document. Within the primary document, this (yaml inspired psuedocode) works just dandy:

html index.html
head
style body{color:red}
script jquery

[code]....

I get a "this[0].innerHTML is undefined" error.Now, it appears as though "data" is being returned a simple string. I attempted to add "html" as a "type" parameter to the get, like this:

$.get("index.html", null, function(data){$(data, "style").html()}, "html"); //logging omitted

Getting Content Of A Textarea With AJAX

Jan 22, 2009

I'm trying to achieve something that I originally thought would be very simple, but I can't get it working....and even googling hasn't helped this time! All I want to do is update the innerHTML of a div with the content of a textarea object when a button is clicked. I'm trying to avoid having to post the form using AJAX because the button also replaces the innerHTML of a different div with the value of a text input box. Here is the code I've tried, but it doesn't work:

Code:

function previewContent(intContentId) {
var titleText = document.getElementById('edit_title_' + intContentId);
var titleDiv = document.getElementById('content_title_' + intContentId);

[Code]....

In this example, the titleText var represents the text input box, and the contentText var is the textarea. The titleDiv gets correctly updated with the current value of the input box, but the contentDiv doesn't seem to consider any changes I make within the textarea - it just loads the original content. This seems very strange to me. Is there an easy way to retrieve the value of the textarea?

Hidden Content And Flickering

May 3, 2005

I am using the following code to hide a <tr>. The script does its job, however before hiding the <tr>, when the cookie is set to true the hidden content flickers for half a second before being hidden. Is there something I am doing wrong or is the problem in style.display="none";?

function ShowHide(DivId)
{
var DivId=document.getElementById(DivId);
if(document.form3.showhide.checked==false)
{
DivId.style.display = "inline";
createCookie("showhide","");
}
else
{
DivId.style.display="none";
createCookie("showhide","true");
}}

JQuery :: Populating Div With Textarea Content?

Apr 4, 2011

I am trying to populate a preview div with the content of a textarea. I have 2 textareas on the page. One with ID compose and another with ID profile_signature. Each has its own preview button named respectivly #profile_sig_preview and #msg_preview. however no matter which button is clicked the div is always populated with the content of the first textarea ie profile_signature. I tired setting up 2 divs so the content could be seperated but that did the same thing.

$j('#preview_msg_btn').click(function(){
$j('#preview').html($j('textarea#compose').val());
alert($j('textarea#compose').val());

[Code]....

as you can see iam alerting out both textareas html content and the alert shows the content fine. Just not the div.
