I am currently working with a .layer div element that darkens the page to highlight a modal. However, I have encountered an issue where upon triggering the event, the div does not occupy 100% of the screen and the original browser scroll bar disappears.
Is there a more elegant solution to ensure that the .layer div maintains the original page's scroll bar when visible?
While testing on smartphones/tablets, I have not experienced any issues when using the event .layer").show();. However, on desktop screens, the disappearance of the original browser scroll bar causes the entire HTML document to shift to the right.
What would be the proper approach to prevent the HTML from shifting to the right in this scenario?
Thank you in advance!
HTML:
<div class="layer"></div>
<div class="open-modal">Open</div>
<div class="modal">
<div class="close-modal">Close</div>
</div>
CSS:
html {width:100%;min-height:100%;margin:0 auto;top:0;left:0;padding:0}
body {top:0;left:0;margin:0;padding:0;min-height:100%}
.layer {
display:none;
position:fixed;
top:0;
left:0;
width:100%;
min-height:100vh;
background:rgba(0,0,0,.9);
z-index:2
}
.modal {display:none;z-index:1}
SCRIPT:
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".open-modal").click(function(){
$(".modal,.layer").show();
$("body").css("overflow","hidden");
});
$(".close-modal,.layer").click(function(){
$(".close-modal,.layer").hide();
$("body").css("overflow","");
});
});
