How to make a div vertically scrollable without content using CSS ?
In this article, we will see how we can create a vertical scrollable section using CSS. HTML code is used to create the basic structure of the sections and CSS code is used to set the style,
HTML Code:
- Create an HTML div element with the class container.
- Created three more nested div with class box
- Write some content inside each div with the class box.
CSS Code:
- The “scroll” option is added in this case to always show the scrollbar for the overflow-y property.
- The height is set to 100vh for 100% height of the viewport, which is set for the reason that if the contents exceed, it adds a scrollbar.
- The scroll-snap-type is set to y so that the direction of scroll-snapping is in the y-axis for the container div. This property is added if the browser is needed to be stopped at a particular time. This forces scrolling to a snap point on the y-axis.
- The scroll-snap-align property is used on elements with the class “box” to set the position that scrolling will snap to. The scroll-snap-align is used to tell the point where the scrolling should stop.
Example: In this example, we create a vertical scrollable using the above approach.
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head> <style type="text/css"> body { margin: 0; } /* Adding scroll snap type mandatory and scroll direction to y axis*/ .container { scroll-snap-type: y mandatory; overflow-y: scroll; /* 100% height of the viewport */ height: 100vh; } /* Adding general css to box and aligning snap to start */ .box { height: 100vh; color: #fff; text-align: center; line-height: 100vh; font-size: 5rem; scroll-snap-align: start; } /* Setting different colors to all boxes */ .box:nth-child(1) { background: #5e38ff; } .box:nth-child(2) { background: #fe802b; } .box:nth-child(3) { background: #00bf71; } </style></head><body> <div class="container"> <div class="box"></div> <div class="box"></div> <div class="box"></div> </div></body></html> |
