I've noticed that in Firefox, elements set to overflow: scroll or overflow: auto scroll quite a bit slower than the regular page scroll does. If you click on the top left Stack Exchange logo you can see what I mean if you use your mousewheel on the drop-down menu. Is there any solution, besides the about:config setting, to make these elements scroll as fast as the page?
This doesn't seem happen in Chrome, Opera, Safari or IE on Windows as far as I can tell. No idea about Mac, though (glad if someone could check/confirm).
Open Menu->Options->Advanced->General->Under Browsing Uncheck "AutoScrolling"
this should help
you could also uncheck the "Smooth Scrolling" option underneath. It only makes a marginal difference, but a difference nonetheless.
Do you have a smooth scrolling plugin installed on firefox?

I ran into a following issue. I have a popup dialog with a scrollbar. In Google Chrome it has space reserved for a scrollbar. However, Firefox does not reserve any space for a scrollbar, so when it appears, it can overlap content (see screenshots). Probably it is somehow related with the fact, that firefox hides scrollbar unless you hover scrollable area. Could you suggest any solution to make firefox reserve space for scrollbar the same way as Chrome do?

Really great question! Unfortunately, As far as I'm aware, there is no simple solution to this problem. I would recommend creating a design that looks good with or without the space differences that the scrollbar creates.
But if you are dead-set on creating a more versatile solution, you could change the scrollbar using Javascript/Jquery (See this answer:Custom CSS Scrollbar for Firefox), or you could try and detect the browser, and accommodate extra padding for elements with scrollbars for users using Firefox(See this answer: How to detect Safari, Chrome, IE, Firefox and Opera browsers?)
Scrollbar disappeared when I add mouse to mac at first time.

When I add mouse to my mac, scroll bar disappeared and a white color box coming right top corner. I do not know why. firefox working fine. chrome safari, and opera i.e had this issue. After refresh the page i could see scrollbar. Help me if you know/face this issue before.
screenshots here... who does not able to understand my issue.
screen shot one after i insert mouse to mac machine scroll disappeared and getting square box right top corner:
after I refresh the page i get see scrollbar.
You can change the setting in the preferences. By default, the scroll bar is hidden with mac products.
Odds are if a user is using a Mac, they're already aware of this and it's considered a feature to them.
But, if you really need it, try using the webkit css pseudo selector ::-webkit-scrollbar
This will only work in Safari and Chrome.
I'm working with a webview this time. I've got a strange behaviour here.
The overflow-x is set to hidden, and works just fine on browsers. But when it comes to any mobile device, it doesn't respect the overflow at all.

This is the URL of it. If you try to open the menu, it will work as intended. But I can scroll the content I placed left. That doesn't happen on browsers.
I know I can fully disable scrolling with jQuery, but I can't find a proper way to disable just horizontal scrolling.
Any tips over it?
I've managed to tweak it out with touchmove. thanks no one for the answer
I have a weird one: on my site http://tustincommercial.com some pages are aligned slightly differently from others, giving a jumping effect.
Compare http://tustincommercial.com vs http://tustincommercial.com/who-we-are to see the effect.
The markup is identical, apart from the content in the middle. The same CSS is being applied.
Now, the real killer is that this difference disappears when developer tools are open. All browsers (IE8, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera) show the difference when developer tools are not open. None of them show the difference when their developer tools are open.
Any ideas on the best way to find and fix the source of the difference?
The issue comes from the scrollbar appearing when your content goes past the bottom of the window. When the developer tools are open all pages need to scroll, so the jump disappears.
There are a few ways to fix this, but I currently can't tell you what would be best for your site. You could make it fixed width, you could try using max-width, or you could force the scroll bar to always be present:
html {
overflow-y: scroll;
}
Having a slight problem with

In IE8, the overlay window doesn't scroll when you scroll down in the browser. So if you click something at the bottom of the browser window, the overlay window pops up but at the top of the screen so you have to scroll back up. This only happens in IE8, all other browsers the overlay window follows. Help? Thanks
I had the same problem, but only when using <frames> or <iframes>. Being unable to correct the problem, along with a few other bugs, I decided switch to using Shadowbox http://www.shadowbox-js.com/. I found it to be ALOT more flexible. Just a suggestion. But as for the IE8 problem you reported, I never encountered the issue in a parent window, just when using frames.
