Hi All,
I've run into a problem and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Please see this page for an example (HTML and CSS only). The page consists of 3 sections (CSS), red is the header, yellow is the content and blue is the footer. The menu is contained in the content section and has position: fixed defined in the #menu rules. I have found that when position: fixed is used the white background of the menu extends to cover the scroll bar. If position: relative or absolute is used then the background does not cover the scroll bar. What am I missing? If I visit 'Stack Overflow' there seems to be a fixed header and it does not cover the scroll bar. Why? Thanks for any help, Charles |

As long as users realize content needs to be scrolled, they'll hopefully know how to do it on their devices, at least with normal body content. But will they recognize a scrollable DIV? Sometimes a DIV's bottom content is clearly cut-off, but in other cases the bottom of the scrollable DIV coincides with the ending of a text paragraph, while the next paragraph is completely out of view.

Those are thing I will ponder as I do research and design my mobile site further.
Thanks for your input. |

Do you still use the overflow? Why? You said you wanted the scroll bar to go all the way to the top?

Actually, I really only want a scroll bar in areas that can scroll, like my current web design. While your design did look like what I wanted I didn't care for the full body scroll bar.

Then I don't understand. You originally complained about that the fixed part covered the scroll bar (which it didn't really). I thought that was the problem you wanted help with.
