HTML - Dynamic Scrollbar

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

In a 'div' element, I defined the ContentPane's style as below:

HTML

<div id="rightPane" dojotype="dijit.layout.ContentPane" style="width: 250px; overflow-x:scroll; overflow-y:scroll;" region="right">

But the vertical scrollbar (where overflow-y:scroll or overflow-y:auto) does not function as needed. There are 2 bugs:
1) If the items in the panel are not expanded, I want to the scrollbar in 'hidden' status. But it is always on even though I set overflow-y:auto.
2) When the items are expanded, the scrollbar still behaves like it before, and can't be scrolled down.
I need a script to dynamically change the scrollbar status. Hopefully you can help me for this piece of code. Thanks in advance.

"overflow-y:scroll;"
"even though I set overflow-y:auto"

Which is it? You say you've set it to "auto", but your code shows you've set it to "scroll".

I tried both: overflow-y:auto and overflow-y:scoll. Same appearance.
