Swiping multiple pages at once results in empty page

[generator85]

When the swipeview wrapper has got a fixed width it's possible to span multiple pages with one swipe. But new content is not being loaded in this page so it remains empty.

This issue is not present in non-touch browsers since the mouse-drag is only registered inside the wrapper (it will stop moving once your cursor moves outside the wrapper).

demo page needed

I've edited your demo and you can find it here: http://87.250.144.60

When you're on a tablet, just swipe all the way to the left/right of the screen.

I believe this behavior is in the current posted ereader demo. If you overswipe, start from page left and slide right past the page over a long distance off the swipeable area, it will take you pass the buffer pages and end up blank.

I'm currently working on finding a good general solution for this. on my project adding the following into the __move function prevents it. long hand: var over = point.pageX < this.wrapper.offsetLeft; if (over){ return; }

basically if you are swipping outside your wrapper than stop. However offsetleft is the offset from its parent and not the entire page, so this isn't good for general use. I just started tracking this down and working it tonight so I'll see tomorrow if I find something better.

OK this is a bit better

var wrapperBound = this.wrapper.getBoundingClientRect();
var absoluteWrapperLeft = wrapperBound.left + window.pageXOffset;
var absoluteWrapperRight = absoluteWrapperLeft + wrapperBound.width;
var over = point.pageX < absoluteWrapperLeft || point.pageX > absoluteWrapperRight;
if (over){
   return;
}

Basically it will restrict the scrollable area to the wrapper (left and right). I have only tested this out on my application on mobile safari and chrome but it seems to work well.

wanted to post a video I made on this issue. Looks like the behavior I was seeing was on touch only. I'm going to look a little deeper and submit the fix pretty soon.
