How do you set the overflow scroll without the bottom scroll?
I only need to show the side scroll for the wrapper of the content.
This will show only vertical scrollbar.
#element {
overflow: auto;
}
OR:
overflow-x:hidden;
overflow-y:auto;
Some browsers support
overflow-x: visible|hidden|auto|scroll;
overflow-y: visible|hidden|auto|scroll;

I have used overflow-x:hidden to hide my horizontal scroll bar. Its working well but I'm not able to see my horizontal scroll bar, but still it exposes the overflow when I select-and-drag towards the right side.
I need to avoid this. Can some body help me out in fixing it?
html
{
overflow-x: hidden;
height:100%;
position:absolute;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
change overflow-x:hidden to overflow:hiddden

I have a standard HTML table. I didn't set the width of the table so it's okay if it fits on the page. However when the table contents are too wide then they extend outside of the enclosing DIV. Is there a way I can make it so that a scroll bar appears only if it's too wide?
Note I tried to add "overflow: hidden" to the DIV but then it just cuts off the table and I cannot see any more.
Use overflow:auto.
Read & Test it here
use overflow-x: auto; for horizontal scroll and overflow-y: auto; for vertical scroll and use overflow: auto; if both direction.
.containingDiv {
overflow: hidden;
overflow-x: auto;
}
Adding scroll bars only when necessary is the purpose of overflow:auto; in CSS and Overflow: scroll; will add them all the time, which probably isn't what you want.
maybe overflow: scroll or overflow: auto ?
This set a scrollbar if the content is to big.
Use overflow: auto on the div.
Note that it will only work is your div has a fixed width!
You want like This, This is also animate which is more helfull
I'd like to have a scrollbar at the bottom of the div but this CSS works only in Firefox, not Webkit browsers like Safari or Chrome.
div.hoge {
width: 500px;
overflow: auto;
}
I googled and found some pages mentioning you should use overflow-x or -webkit-overflow-scrolling but they didn't work either. Need to use some JSs? Any guesses?
If you need a scroll bar to appear always then, you can use overflow: scroll
If you need vertical scroller then, overflow-y: scroll
If you need only horizontal scroller then, overflow-x: scroll
As per the questions title: You can write mozilla specific styles like this
#-moz-document url-prefix() {
div.hoge {
width: 500px;
overflow: auto;
}
}
Here is an example fiddle of a div that scrolls on x. If you don't include the white-space: nowrap, then the text just wraps within the div and only the vertical (y-direction) scroll bar actually scrolls.
The fiddle shows two div elements; one with nowrap and one without. Also I put borders on the div to make it easier to see.
overflow: auto; doesn't make scrolling DIV, use overflow: scroll;
if you want it on any particular axis, then use overflow-x: scroll; or overflow-y: scroll;
Have you tried overflow-x:scroll; ?
Also make sure that the div.hoge has the enough height to display the scroll bar at the bottom.
I had an issue with this scroll as in this image:
The issue is that I want only the vertical scroll to appear and not the horizontal scroll. I had used overflow:scroll attribute while coding. Will it look the same in Firefox and IE or is there any other way to do that?
Just use overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: scroll; or overflow: auto; instead of overflow: scroll;.
I'm trying to make the main body of my site to have a fixed height (I think!).
Anyway, the site body is just white, with a border of size 1. Basically, the size of the body is determined by what's in it so, for example, it will resize automatically as more things are added.
What I want is vertical scroll bars so the body doesn't extend forever (is that right?). Should I have a fixed body size?
If you want vertical scroll bars you can use this in your CSS;
body {
height: 900px;
overflow-y: scroll;
overflow-x: hidden; /* hides the horizontal scroll bar */
}
What are you trying to accomplish? You sound unsure if you even want the scroll bars; is there a reason you want to show the scroll bars instead of just having the browser handle the scrolling when the content gets larger than the window?
Yes. You need a fixed height
body{
height: your-height;
overflow:auto;
}
will generate scroll bars only when you overflow the area without growing it vertically.
So, in your body create a layer:
<div id="mainbar">
</div>
And using CSS you can set the height:
div#mainbar {
min-height:100px;
overflow:auto;
}
The min-height guarantees the initial height that you need. Once it goes over that, it you will automatically have scrollbars. If you would rather the page itself scroll and the body lengthen, just take out the overflow line from the CSS.
If you want the vertical scroll bars to an inner div on your site (like so you can have a footer visible at all times), simple specify the height of the div:
#inner { max-height: 300px;
}
I think the default for the overflow is to scroll, but if your content is cutting cut off with no scrollbars, you could also set
overflow: auto;
