I have a small toolbar div that is position:fixed so it moves as the user scrolls. The toolbar is inside a larger div, however I need the toolbar to not scroll out of the parent div - is there any way to do this?
If you don't understand what I mean, take a look: http://flowmainserver.appspot.com/post (I want the love heart and other button not to scroll out of the large image div because they obstruct the comment box)
Is there any way to achieve this with css or will I need javascript? Thanks!
First, some other pointers:
<!DOCTYPE>
declaration. (using different <!DOCTYPE>
declarations may require you to make some changes, including addnig cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"
to <table>
tags)<center>
element - instead use a combination of margin:auto
and text-align:center;
.<div>
inside an inline level element <a>
like this: <a href="/"><div class="title"></div></a>
. Instead, give your <a>
a display:block;
CSS property.text-indent:-10000px;
to remove it.<link />
- and sometimes don't <img>
. Choose one or the other, and use the appropriate <!DOCTYPE>
alt
attributes on <img />
tags and rows
and cols
on <textarea>
tags to validate your HTML document.This will result in much more consistent behavior between browsers and better accessibility. Toss in some <h1>
...<h6>
headers are you're pretty solid on the SEO too.
As for your question... perhaps if you just made it go behind the comments?
Put this in a .html
