Scroll page under dialog

in Using jQuery UI • 12 years ago

Hi,

I would like to be able to scroll a page underneath an open dialog box, with the dialog remaining in a fixed place.

I need this functionality, so if anybody else does, maybe the jQuery team might consider adding that option to the Dialog widget.

Kind Regards

Swami

Sorry, probably a dumb suggestion but would .css("position", "fixed") not get you there?

Not quite -

If I do $("#dialog").dialog().css("position", "fixed");

then the text content of the dialog box stays fixed, but the header scrolls up with the rest of the page :-)

Réf.: Scroll page under dialog

Hello,

One solution is to move the dialog when the scroll event occurs like that :

$(window).scroll(function () {
  oDetail .dialog("option","position","center");
  });

A sample is available here :
