I'm getting some weird issues on my website in Chrome where if I have a body of 100% jquery page scrolling stops working. I can't remove body height:100% as this is needed to make the .header class 50% of the page. Firefox is not effected by this issue at all. I've looked at other similar questions but non help.
I've written up a test here: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/bIHxc.
.
I've tried these things to get it to work in chrome but each one stops something else from working:
Current http://codepen.io/anon/pen/bIHxc - Header is 50% of page (good) but scrolling fails to work in Chrome (bad)
tried min-height:100% instead of height:100% in body css - This allows scrolling to work in chrome (good) but collapses the header (bad)
Change #mainContainer css from position: relative; to absolute - Both header and scrolling work (good) until you expand the #sidebar (click the Open button top left). The #mainContainer can now be moved freely especially noticeable on mobile or with a mac trackpad (very bad!). It looks as if overflow-x isn't working or something.
I'm trying to do this without javascript. Am I trying to do something impossible?

Old topic, but it seems that setting:
should do the trick as well. I am just not sure on how to assure this behaviour cross browser :-/
I think I've found a solution.
I've added a #wrapper around the whole website and moved
overflow:hidden;
from body and html to #wrapper.Then I added #wrapper to the jQuery selector
Here is a codePen if anyone's interested: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/IwGcF
This seems to work well on Chrome mobile, Chrome desktop and firefox.
Try to remove your
overflow-x: hidden;
if you can or move it on the html element, not on the body. It seems to work for me.
