So I really hate the way chrome extension development works so I decided to make a regular webapp and use an iframe in my extension. Everything works fine, except for the dimensions of the website and the scrolling on the extension/site.
When developing the site, I knew I was going to use an iframe so I used percentages when formatting the site, for the most part I used 100% on most divs and textboxes. Anyway, the problem I am facing is that the scroll is extremely wonky on the extension for instance this is a picture of my extension with 400px height:
400x400. Everything looks fine.
and here is my extension with 800px height:
400x800. Scroll appears.
Why is the scroll appearing if I am merely making the extension longer? It doesn't make sense to me.
Any idea why this is happening?
There is a limit on the size of the popup window. I don't know the exact dimensions though.
You cannot increase the size of the document past it, scroll will appear.

I have an irritating problem with Glimpse.
I wanted to see everything I can on a Glimpse tab so I maximised it's size on the page.
Now I cannot resize it back again. There is no edge I can drag down. I am sure there is a simple way of sorting this. I tried switching off Glimpse, but when I switched it back on again it was taking up the whole screen again. I don't want to install and uninstall, so how do I fix this easily?
I am using ie10
I find a way of fixing this, which is to go into Developer Tools and change the css settings dynamically by using the CSS top class, replacing another class like margin, and putting in 200px and then resizing from that.
Another option is launch the Glimpse as Standalone tool.
I have a menu (this is the menu I'm using with a few modifications: http://multi-level-push-menu.make.rs/) that floats over an image that is linked. Whenever a link is click that is in front of the image, both links are activated.
I've tried added a higher z-index to the menu wrapper, but still not working. Thoughts?
Here is a screen cap of the problem:

I know the obviously answer is to make the image not clickable, which I will change but I'm concerned this could cause problems somewhere else on the site.
I know this type of question has been asked many times before but I haven't found an answer to my specific issue yet so I thought i would post.
It's really a bit of a quirk I guess rather than anything else but I have designed a responsive site that resizes nicely in a browser when you resize the window and works perfectly when you load it up in either portrait or landscape on a mobile. However when you load it in portrait and then turn the mobile into landscape some mobile browsers don't load up the correct styling for the new screen size - BUT IT DOESN'T HAPPEN LIKE THIS FOR ALL BROWSERS! So far I have tested it on an Android 4.0.4 version phone using the standard Android browser and it resizes correctly when switching orientations but then on the same phone using google chrome as the browser it applies different styling BUT if you refresh the page it then applies the correct styling.
So my question is how can I force the mobile browser to render the page correctly on orientation change without having to reload the page?
The site in question is www.the-baobab.co.uk and im using the viewport meta tag and setting it to width=device-width and an initial scale of 1 then calling media queries at certain max pixel widths to alter positioning and layout for various different screen sizes which can be seen in my stylesheet1.css here
I'm currently working on a flash project, which will use multiple scroll areas.
I'm trying to find out how to create a scroll area like I see on stackoverflow, and make it function similarly.
Whenever someone posts their lines of code to stackoverflow, the scroll area scrollbar looks exactly like the scrollbar in the web browser, and is able to be scrolled with the mousewheel smoothly, without affecting the webpage scrolling.
Example: disable mouse wheel scrolling while cursor over flex app?
Could anyone please explain to me how I can do this in my flash project?
Thanks!!
You wouldn't need flash to do this... This is accomplished using CSS. You would just need to put the portion you wanted to function like that in a div (or any HTML container for that matter) and then define such properties as min-height, max-height, min-width, max-width, overflow, etc. I think there's one that determines the presence of the scroll bars but I don't remember what it is for sure. Very easy to do this and flash would be a bit of overkill.
Our website www.phototulip.com displays fine in Safari and Firefox but not in IE7.
The main content seems to display on the bottom right hand side and the nav bar shifts slightly to the left. I've tried to adjust sidebar and content widths but with no success.
I was wondering if anyone could help.
You have a few places where your markup is invalid (one or more <div> tags aren't closed properly) that could, potentially affect the layout. FireFox tends to be a bit more forgiving about that sort of thing than IE.
Other things to check are that your content area & sidebar have explicit widths set and that they aren't too wide for the container they're in.
