Options
| Options | Type | Default | Description
|:----------|:----------:|:----------:|:-------------
| animation | object
| false
| An object defining CSS class(es) to be applied when top or bottom edge is locked. (see remarks1)
| keyboard | object
| false
| When enabled, keys that causes scrolling will also be locked. (see remarks2)
| selector | string
| false
| When provided, matching descendants will be locked. Useful when dealing with dynamic HTML.
| strict | boolean
| false
| When enabled, only elements passing the strictFn
check will be locked.
| strictFn | function
| remarks3 | This function is responsible for deciding if the element should be locked or not.
| touch | boolean
| auto
| Indicates if an element's lock is enabled on touch screens.
| unblock | string
| false
| When provided, matching descendants scrolling will be unblocked. Useful when having a scrollable element inside a locked one.
Remarks1
This is pure JavaScript plugin, it does not provide any CSS. You need to implement your own!
The animation
option has two keys:
{
"top": "top locked",
"bottom": "bottom locked"
}
When an edge is locked, the value of both animation.top + animation.bottom
will be removed from the locked element's class list.
Then based on the locked edge, the value of animation.top
or animation.bottom
is added to the class list, and removed once the browser animationend
event is fired.
Remarks2
In chrome, The following keys causes a scroll, which may propagate to parent element.
space, pageup, pagedown , end , home, up, down
The keyboard
option has one key:
{ "tabindex": 0 }
The tabindex
is required to be able to listen to keyboard events on none input elements, such as a div
. The side effect of adding a tabindex
is the browser highlight when the element is focused.
Which can be avoided via CSS outline
property.
.scrollable{ outline:0; }
Remarks3
The default strictFn
implementation checks if the element requires a vertical scrollbar.
strictFn = function($element){
return $element.prop('scrollHeight') > $element.prop('clientHeight');
}
In previous versions (≤ v2.1.0), The check was based on scrollbar visibility, In case you require such behavior, include the following in your script:
$.fn.scrollLock.defaults.strictFn = function ($element) {
var clientWidth = $element.prop('clientWidth'),
offsetWidth = $element.prop('offsetWidth'),
borderRightWidth = parseInt($element.css('border-right-width'), 10),
borderLeftWidth = parseInt($element.css('border-left-width'), 10)
return clientWidth + borderLeftWidth + borderRightWidth < offsetWidth
}
