Google Chrome cutting off bottom of long pages - html

I'm developing a website and whenever I load a pretty long page on chrome, it creates some sort of a box that covers up the bottom portion of my page. The long pages look fine on Safari and Firefox; it's only Chrome that is causing this problem.
Here's what the behavior looks like:
And here's the page with the issue: https://nosh-staging.herokuapp.com/events
If you keep scrolling to the bottom, you'll notice the giant white box that covers the last 15% - 20% of the page.
Few quirks I've noticed:
I'm using a 15" MBP (1440 x 900 resolution screen) and a 27" Thunderbolt display (2560 x 1440). When I open up Chrome in the Thunderbolt display, the page loads just fine. As soon as I move the window to my 15" screen, it just covers up the whole bottom part of the page.
When I inspect the elements, all the codes seem to load just fine. It almost feels like Chrome is putting up a huge box on top of the page. When I try to click + drag to select text, I can't see the selection because of the box.
I'm currently developing on Rails 3.2.13 and Ruby 2.0.0. Tested the pages on Chrome ver. 30.0.1599.101, Firefox ver. 25.0, and Safari 7.0. I've tried disabling all the extensions and loading the page, but that did not help either.

I was experiencing the same issue - long pages cut off half way only in Chrome. Other answers here didn't work, but changing my css animations slightly on the element that was cut off did. I removed the forwards below, and the issue stopped. Bizarre.
Changed from:
animation: 0.2s fadeIn forwards 1 ease;
To:
animation: 0.2s fadeIn 1 ease;

I had a very similar problem with the bottom of the page being cut off in Chrome. The page also flickered while scrolling.
It rendered fine in all the other browsers.
The solution, in my case, was to remove {mix-blend-mode: multiply;} from an element on the page. This resulted in all of the weird render bugs going away.
I hope this is of use to someone else as it took over a day of head-scratching to figure this out.

Had a very similar issue on two separate projects, and this only happens in Chrome on desktop (both Mac and Windows) and Chrome for Android.
Here's what i found:
It appears CSS animations have a limited visible 'render area'.
When you apply an animation to a element using 'forwards' it remains in this state and 'render'.
This also leads to animation lag when you are animating in multiple elements within the container element that is stuck 'forwards'.
Solutions i found to work:
Reduce the animation 'area' i.e: animate elements with a smaller pixel area, not large containers.
When wanting to animate large container elements i.e: fading in all content - do not apply the animation to the container. Create an element that fully overlays your content, and animate (fade out) that instead.
#TimothyBuktu solution above helped point me in the right direction.

CSS Transition doesn't work on chrome for android

I am coding a react application that displays an animation for a moving color within a div when a user clicks. I do this using a div inside that changes its inset-inline-start and that has a transition: all 0.3s ease. I am using MUI, so it auto-fills -webkit-transition. For some reason, the animation doesn't show up on chrome for android.It works perfectly fine in my computer's devtools and when tested on an iPhone, and on my android device with firefox, but not on my android device with chrome...
I tried replacing inset-inline-start with left, removing other properties like pointer-events: none, and more - to no effect... I tried updating my version of chrome, tested on other androids - and it doesn't work on any android device.
Here is what shows up in my devtools:
(I am using stylis-rtl-plugin, which is why the .muirtl-...)
The inset-inline-start property changes correctly and the box moves, and in the other scenarios it animates nicely and moves from place to place, but not on chrome with androids...
Would really appreciate help - can't wrap my head around why this is happening...

Why does this webpage flicker a lot on Microsoft Edge?

The webpage which I am currently front end coding is https://www.softpaz.com/software/download-jetbrains-webstorm-windows-180745.htm
Issue is that the
1) sidebar sometimes gets transparent
2) div background are blank, then suddenly appear and then go blank again.
3) The buy links table has flickering borders
4) Most of the small icons are flickering
These things happen when scrolling in Microsoft Edge, and IE11. Have tested the same webpage in chrome and firefox, and its working without any issues.
I have tried:
http://ieflicker.com/
tried removing the background, removing box shadows, text shadows, disable rounded corners and put everything at 100% opacity, but it still happens.
When the page is small, that is, there are less number of elements on the page, like the about us page of softpaz(link on top top right) then everything display fine.
Am confused on what to do now!?
I figured it out! Posting it if someone is facing the same problem. My system has the Intel HD3000 and running on Windows 10, which means that there was limited hardware acceleration support(as there are no official drivers from Intel). The page runs fine on other systems.
Once again, I see that Firefox, Chrome, Opera, etc outshine IE/Edge on the same system!

HTML Position Fixed error

Making a website for my university project and have hit a small problem when viewing my site in Chrome (which is usually great for compatibility so I'm probably playing dumb). I've set the header bar and 'controls_container' as both position:fixed in order to have them in view when scrolling down the page, yet in Chrome these aren't fixed, whereas in IE, Safari and Firefox it works as intended.
This is the top of the page viewed in Chrome:
This is after scrolling down in Chrome:
(Header bar scrolls up, as does the breadcrumb buttons on the left)
This is after scrolling in IE:
Can't remove z-index from the video as it's my background video.
Here is the link to my site, any help would be much appreciated!

The elements you’ve mentioned — header bar and .controls_container — are actually fixed. The problem here is in rendering, which acts odd, when you use background video.
Try to add backface-visibility: hidden; or transform: translateZ(0); to the styles of fixed elements and the problem go away. These attributes put your fixed elements in separate rendering layer — stacking context — and browser renders them correctly.
Looks like a rendering issue in Chrome. If you delete the "banner_video" node, everything works as expected.

Foundation Orbit Slides repainting entire page on each transition (Chrome)

using:
Chrome 36.0.1985.125
Foundation Orbit 5.2.2 with animation: slide
I have a slide show, 5 slides, at the top of my page. They are set to transition via slide every 3000 ms.
I first noticed the repaint issue described below due to Fancybox being called near the bottom of the page. While the Fancybox iframe was "popped out" there would be a quick white flash / flicker affecting everything apart from the iframe, every 3 seconds.
Using Chrome's inspector's Timeline view as well as the Rendering option to "Show paint rectangles" proved my suspicions correct.
Even when the slide set (the top of the page) is off screen, still every 3 seconds there is a page-wide repaint. With the inspector's Timeline, I can see a "heartbeat" every 3 seconds in the flow, even when scrolled all the way to the bottom of the page, including a large purple and green spike, where purple represents rendering and green represents painting. With the Rendering option "Show paint rectangles" I see, again even when scrolled all the way to the bottom of the page, a quick flash of every element on the page framed and tinted in green (being painted) every 3 seconds.
I've looked around quite a bit for "foundation orbit flickering," "orbit slideshow repaint" "foundation orbit repaint offscreen," and similar terms and have so far not discovered anything of use.
One or two pages I read mentioned a font change or font flicker at regular intervals relating to the slides' transitions. The "fix" (or workaround) there was to change the animation parameter's value from slide to fade. Trying this, I found that the repaint issue went away completely. However, I would prefer to use the slide transition.
I haven't been able to reproduce this in Safari or Firefox, but I also don't know what developer tools to use in either of those browsers that would confirm or deny whether the repaint is occurring (i.e. the equivalent of Timeline or "Show paint rectangles" in Chrome's inspector). Failing that behind-the-scenes proof, it is the case that in Firefox and Safari, with the Fancybox iframe popped out near the bottom of the page, there is no white flash / flicker, as there is in Chrome due to the repaint.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
And yes, I realise that the Foundation Orbit slideshow is no longer supported.
Many thanks.

Extra spacing added in foundation 4 with custom wordpress theme

I am working with Foundation 4 plus WP and came across a very interesting issue and this is not a UTF-8 issue.
Page rendering in Chrome:
http://www.nmjgraphics.com/imaging/chrome_ren.jpg
Page rendering in Firefox (IE 10 loads the same way):
http://www.nmjgraphics.com/imaging/ff_ren.jpg
In both FF and IE the top navigation renders perfect out of the box, but in chrome it is bumped down by 30px. Now I can apply a margin of -1.9% 0% 0% 24.5% and that gets the menu back to where is "should" be on the browser, but IE and FF shift the menu by -1.9% and that cuts the navigation in half. In addition to that I also tried using the top element setting at 100% initially and then using "inspect element" in chrome move the number down to 0 with no effect at all.
This has not been tested on Opera or Safari, but my assumption is they will render just like FF and IE.
I do apologize for the links instead of images, but I need 10 rep just to add images to the question and I can only post two links, but I did have a total of 3 images showing the rendering on the three browsers. If you want to see the ie rendering, just change the browser name to ie_ren.jpg.
solved it. I was pulling my hair out for nothing. Page renders fine if I am not logged in. I completely forgot about the bar. I figured that if I wasn't placing it in the theme it wouldn't show up at all. Learned something new there. I will either add the bar (which I should) or disable it all together.
