Hi,
Same host but different port.(e.g) http://localhost:8080 content from 
http://localhost:9090

In this situation, you need to add nicescroll to page loaded by iframe.
Javascript policy not permit to nicescroll to control the content.

How is it working in chrome?

Chrome works weird because it triggers mousewheel events as iframe is a local 
div.

Other browsers respect policy restriction and not trigger events.

Is there any work around available to trigger the mousewheel events for firefox?

For a more specific solution I need to watch your pages.

I suggest you to init nicescroll from iframe content (9090) instead from the 
main page (8080)

Hi,

I have attached test pages.Try this page in firefox.
I don't need any scroll inside iframe, because I have extend the iframe height 
corresponding to iframe content. My requirement is while mousewheel on the 
iframe content ,it need to call the page scroll.It works without 
nicescroll(normal page scroll)

Thanks for the code.
The problem is a browser limitation. When you scroll over an iframe, all events 
are manage from iframe itself, the page doesn't receive mousewheel events.

The simple solution for Firefox can be events prevents on iframe, so page can 
manage it.

You can use this:

$("#_iframe_view").css({"pointer-events":"none"});

It prevents click events too, so you need replicate click from page to iframe 
(re-trigging event)

Hi,

Thanks for your response,

I can't prevents the event because The page is not static. It will have many 
links and buttons,It will not work after prevent event.

I thing it is an issue in nice scroll, Because while removing the nice scroll 
init , It will work.

Sorry, it's a limit of javascript.

You can try to retrigger mousewheel events from iframe to main page with a 
specific script (runned on iframe scope).

i too have same problem give an solution for this

Original comment by anandrag...@gmail.com on 19 Jul 2013 at 5:34

No easy solution.
Iframes on firefox trap all mouse events so nicescroll (on main page) can't 
detect mouse wheel events.
It's easier to directly add nicescroll to content loaded from iframe. (if you 
can)

Hi, same problem here, I embed a video from vimeo. I can't disable 
pointer-events, while than I can't use the player's buttons. Any good ideas?

This issue should be fixed.

I still can't seem to get this working on firefox. Whatever I do it just 
doesn't react on a mousewheel event when the pointer is over an iframe. I'm 
trying to get this to work with a horizontal scroll event. Chrome is fine.

I could just manage to overcome this problem. You can check the solution 
mentioned in the jsfiddle mentioned below.

http://jsfiddle.net/6nnMV/358/

Here, I have created a event to listen to the mouse scroll and have binded the 
event to the iframe.

You can then scroll the parent window or element by using the scrollTop 
property like

$(element).scrollTop($(element).scrollTop+(number of pixels));

This will only work when the iframe you are accessing is in the same domain.

Can somebody confirm that this works?

I have the exact same issue:
- A page with an iFrame.
- The iFrame's height is always adapted to the length of its content, thus no 
scrolling.

When I scroll using the mouse wheel hovering over the iFrame scrolling stops 
half way of the iFrame.

When not using niceScroll everything is working as expected.
