I'm not able to prevent the main body content from scrolling while a fixed position overlay is showing. Similar questions have been asked many times, but all of the techniques that previously worked do not seem to work on Safari in iOS 10. This seems like a recent issue.
Some notes:
html
and body
to overflow: hidden
, however that makes the body content scroll to the top.touchmove
while the overlay is showing. This worked previously, but no longer works.Here's the full HTML source:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.2.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<style type="text/css">
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body {
font-family: arial;
}
#overlay {
display: none;
position: fixed;
z-index: 9999;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
overflow: scroll;
color: #fff;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
}
#overlay span {
position: absolute;
display: block;
right: 10px;
top: 10px;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 44px;

}
#overlay p {

padding: 100px;
font-size: 36px;
}
#page {

}
a {
font-weight: bold;

}
</style>
<script>
$(function() {
$('a').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('body').css('overflow', 'hidden');
$('#page').addClass('disable-scrolling'); // for touchmove technique below
$('#overlay').fadeIn();
});
$('#overlay span').click(function() {
$('body').css('overflow', 'auto');
$('#page').removeClass('disable-scrolling'); // for touchmove technique below
$('#overlay').fadeOut();
});
});

document.ontouchmove = function ( event ) {
var isTouchMoveAllowed = true, target = event.target;
while ( target !== null ) {
if ( target.classList && target.classList.contains( 'disable-scrolling' ) ) {
isTouchMoveAllowed = false;
break;
}
target = target.parentNode;
}
if ( !isTouchMoveAllowed ) {
event.preventDefault();
}
};

Add -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
to the #overlay
element.
Then add this JavaScript code at the end of the body tag:
(function () {
var _overlay = document.getElementById('overlay');
var _clientY = null; // remember Y position on touch start
_overlay.addEventListener('touchstart', function (event) {
if (event.targetTouches.length === 1) {
// detect single touch
_clientY = event.targetTouches[0].clientY;
}
}, false);
_overlay.addEventListener('touchmove', function (event) {
if (event.targetTouches.length === 1) {
// detect single touch
disableRubberBand(event);
}
}, false);
function disableRubberBand(event) {
var clientY = event.targetTouches[0].clientY - _clientY;
if (_overlay.scrollTop === 0 && clientY > 0) {
// element is at the top of its scroll
event.preventDefault();
}
if (isOverlayTotallyScrolled() && clientY < 0) {
//element is at the top of its scroll
event.preventDefault();
}
}
function isOverlayTotallyScrolled() {
// https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/scrollHeight#Problems_and_solutions
return _overlay.scrollHeight - _overlay.scrollTop <= _overlay.clientHeight;
}
}())
