Hidden scrollbar unless page resize
I need a custom scrollbar plugin for a personal project (by "custom" I mean basic inertia effects, custom images and so on). My choice was mCustomScrollbar.
The documentation was indeed very clear, and I haven't had any trouble implementing the script, but it seems to work only when I resize the page, as if scrolling isn't needed.
In fact, the scrollbar has style="display: hidden" on a fully loaded page, like in this question (but I couldn't find any useful answers).
I believe there's some height issue linked with slidesjs (which I'm using as well), but I just can't find it...here's some code:
(There's the whole page, so you can view the code with firebug...just go under "Pulcini" to view the long content)
<head>
<!-- everything is included -->
<link href="css/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="css/jquery.mCustomScrollbar.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.mousewheel.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.mCustomScrollbar.js"></script>
<script>
$(function(){
$("#slides").slides({
generatePagination: false,
pagination: true,
paginationClass: 'pagination'
});
});
</script>
<script>
(function($){
$(window).load(function(){
$("#slide2").mCustomScrollbar();
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="slides">
<!-- other stuff -->
<div class="slides_container">
<div id="slide1">
<h2>Uova</h2>
<p>Text1...</p>
</div>
<!-- slide2 is the scrollbar div -->
<div id="slide2">
<h2>Blabla</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum</p><br />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
CSS:
div#slides {
height: 506px;
}
.slides_container {
width: 900px;
height: 506px;
}
.slides_container, div#slide1, div#slide2, div#slide3, {
width: 808px;
height: 366px;
display: block;
float: left;
overflow-y: auto;
}
.slides_container {
margin-top: 30px;
margin-bottom: 30px;
height: 366px;
}
Answer
I had same problem. So I changed the fluid code for updateOnBrowserResize: true, and updateOnContentResize: true, and now it works great with all the javascript.
(function($) {
$(window).load(function() {
$("#content_1").mCustomScrollbar({
scrollEasing:"easeOutCirc",
mouseWheel:"auto",
autoDraggerLength:true,
advanced:{
updateOnBrowserResize:true,
updateOnContentResize:true
} // removed extra commas
});
});
})(jQuery);
