When I am viewing a picture gallery (i.e. umd.net/gallery) , often times I will click on a picture to view the enlarged (original?) version of the image. When I do this, a new window pops up with the image. Higher quality images will not always fit on my display so sometimes I need to scroll through the pop up window to view the entire image. My display is 2560x1600.
However, when I hover over the image and attempt to scroll within the pop up window, sometimes I will inadvertently scroll up or down the webpage and lose my position within the picture gallery. I don't think this should be happening so I wanted to start a topic to see if anyone has been experiencing this or if there are some configurable settings to work around it.
I attached an screenshot showing what happens when the original image doesn't fit within the pop up window.
Hmmm, thanks for the screen shot. It looks like you actually don't have scrollbars on that image. And the chat bar is showing inside of the picture box, which shouldn't be happening. Definitely something funky going on. Can you hit me up on inbox? Let me know your browser... I think we could isolate the problem and come up with a fix.
Thanks for the detailed message and screen shot. Messmaster
I think basically he wants the main window to NOT scroll when he's scrolling in the pop-up window. Seems a reasonable request, but I suspect it's not doable? I don't know, maybe some sort of 'onfocus' event thingy would work. Haven't coded in a while. Ooooh, webkits... brrrrrrr.
Alternatively, the pop-up could be forced to fit the screen on opening, scrolling only when a Comments section is revealed by clicking a link, say.
