Safari CSS rule vh-units?
Does anybody know if there is a fix for Safari vh rule?
#what{
min-height:70vh;
}
All working ok, in all browsers, but only in Safari it is not recognized? Is there a fix for safari, that we can use VH rule in css?
Answer
Instead of Vw/Vh, use rem with this JavaScript. The "run code snippet" might create confusion, cause its window "resizes" by zooming. To test this, just copy this code into some html file and run it in Safari and other browsers (or see "Full Page").
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
(function (doc, win) {
var docEl = doc.documentElement,
recalc = function () {
var clientWidth = docEl.clientWidth;
if (!clientWidth) return;
docEl.style.fontSize = clientWidth + 'px';
docEl.style.display = "none";
docEl.clientWidth; // Force relayout - important to new Android devices
docEl.style.display = "";
};
// Abort if browser does not support addEventListener
if (!doc.addEventListener) return;
// Test rem support
var div = doc.createElement('div');
div.setAttribute('style', 'font-size: 1rem');
// Abort if browser does not recognize rem
if (div.style.fontSize != "1rem") return;
win.addEventListener('resize', recalc, false);
doc.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', recalc, false);
})(document, window);
</script>
<style>
@charset "utf-8";
*{padding: 0;margin: 0;}
div {position:fixed;width:40%;height:30%;background-color:yellow;color:blue;font-size:0.02rem;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>in this case 0.01 rem == 1vw . You need to remove body margins.</div>
</body>
