I'm able to actually make a parent wrapper div
scroll horizontally as intended but there are child div
elements which need to be scrollable vertically. The issue is that whenever I enable the child div
to scroll vertically, the parent div
still continues to scroll horizontally. Any ideas on how to go about this?
The HTML is pretty straightforward:
<div id="wrapper"> <!-- This div scrolls horizontally -->
<div class="child"> <!-- This div scrolls normally -->
</div>
</div>
The jQuery is pretty much a mess but I'm willing to redo it because I'm still new at this and any pointers that can help will be appreciated:
$('#wrapper').on('mousewheel DOMMouseScroll', function(event){
var delta = Math.max(-1, Math.min(1, (event.originalEvent.wheelDelta || -event.originalEvent.detail)));
event.preventDefault();
// Scrollleft on mousewheel
$(this).scrollLeft( $(this).scrollLeft() - ( delta * 90 ) );
});
I don't know what to add to it to make sure scrolling the #child
element will scroll it normally (vertically) and prevent the #wrapper
from scrolling at all. I could enable the #child
scrolling but for some reason the #wrapper
still scrolls once before stopping, which means there's a second where both #child
and #wrapper
scroll at the same time and then the #wrapper
stops while the #child
continues.
