Here is the situation we want to hide scroll bar. We have huge content. But we want to still scroll. We can accomplish this with different tactics.
By using Css
We can use Css
techniques in order to hide and do not show the scrollbar in a browser. This is supported by all major browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Opera.
We will set the parent and child class height
and width
to the %100
. We will also set some properties like overflow
to hidden
, overdlow-y
to scroll
etc.
#parent{ height: 100%; width: 100%; overflow: hidden; } #child{ width: 100%; height: 100%; overflow-y: scroll; padding-right: 17px; /* Increase/decrease this value for cross-browser compatibility */ }
By Using Javascript
We can also use JavaScript for hiding scrollbars in popular browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer etc. We will use parent
and child
objects to set their width and height to same values.
var parent = document.getElementById('container1'); var child = document.getElementById('container2'); child.style.paddingRight = child.offsetWidth - child.clientWidth + "px";
