Bootstrap : how to disable vertical scrollbar?

Question

when my modal popup window opens, it adds a vertical scrollbar to the right of the browser window. How do i disable this? I think this is enabled when the modal window has a very large height value where it needs to scroll. i want to disable this as my form height does not exceed the window height.

Answer 1

In your css add :

body {
  overflow-y:hidden;
}

Answer 2

I have the same problem with bootstrap 3.0.0. It seems that .modal class has overflow-y: scroll rule which results in scrollbar always visible.

So, you can amend this either locally:

<div class="modal" ... style="overflow-y: auto;">
    ...
</div>

or globally:

<style>
.modal {
    overflow-y: auto;
}
</style>
