Always show a vertical scrollbar in Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera
- makecheck 17y agoI've always hated how the vertical scroll bar disappears in my browser, and it's nice to see that such a simple CSS trick fixes it. I actually use OmniWeb, but the trick works just as well; I had to define a style sheet first (Page Appearance preferences).
- geuis 17y agoThis is an incredibly old css "trick". Its also completely annoying. Yes, 4 years ago I implemented this on an old corporate site. Today? I'm building my sites to be adaptable across browsers and leave the nit-picky details of the rendering to them.
- makecheck 17y agoI don't think I would force this on a published page either, since it's basically a personal preference. But it certainly could be done by one user for his/herself. Safari and OmniWeb let you set default stylesheets, and Firefox will recognize one too if you create a [profile]/chrome/userContent.css file.
- Jem 17y agoWhat makes it annoying? (I'm asking out of genuine curiousity, not because I use it.)
- Encosia 17y agoIt's a necessity if some of your site's pages aren't very tall and you use a centered layout. Pages shifting back and forth horizontally when navigating between short and long pages is annoyingly jarring.
