Page moves when a drop down search item is selected #8

This only happens the first time a drop-down is opened up.
All others (after the first) look like they are just fine.

Which browser are you using? I could not see this behavior at msaf.heroku.com with Chrome.

aeggum commented 12 years ago

I get the issue no matter what field, on Firefox (12) on Ubuntu. Chrome on the same machine I get the error to happen from the third drop-down option on down (ie. 'Type of Residence') and below..weird. I'll check on my Mac and see what kind of results I get the issue on Chrome on the mac but not Firefox. Someday if I'm inclined I'll check it out on Safari.

I think I now what you mean. And I know why it is not happening here at my browser.

I may be wrong, but is the resolution in your computer high, so that when you browse to msaf.heroku.com, there is no scrolling side bar in the right? Then, when you click on some options they show up and the page gets bigger so that the scrolling appears. And the page is pushed a little bit to the left.

In here, I saw that happening before (I think at the Poseidon machines) but here at my computer, when the page is loaded, the scrolling bar in the left is already there.

I think we can control it via javascript, maybe forcing the bar to be there always or disabling it and designing our own scroll bar, or doing something else (even without javascript).

I just have a 1440x900 resolution screen, but yes, that's what happens.. when the scroll bar shows up the page jumps..good catch! I missed that and just noticed the jumping.

Sounds good!

guilhermesgb commented 12 years ago

Nice!, I just closed the issue then.

aeggum commented 12 years ago

Was this issue resolved or you know how to fix it or something? Just wondering as I still get the slight page move

guilhermesgb commented 12 years ago

No, I just closed because I thought we would leave it that way, but we'd better solve this. The page move is not something beautiful... We will have to see how to do that.

aeggum commented 12 years ago

I don't think this is really an issue any more. It might still happen but it happens very slowly and isn't as obnoxious.
