I've encountered an issue where the browser's vertical scrollbar will, if visible, move along with a fancybox slide during the slide event. If you run the code snippet, adjust the height so that the vertical scrollbar becomes visible, and then click on the next/previous fancybox buttons to observe the sliding scrollbar behavior.
$(".fancybox").fancybox({
type: "inline",
speed: 2000
});

Is this a bug? Any idea on a workaround? I tried hiding/showing the scrollbar before and after the slide transition, but this didn't work:
$(".fancybox").fancybox({
type: "inline",
speed: 2000,
beforeMove: function (instance, slide) {
document.body.style.overflow = "hidden";
},
afterMove: function (instance, slide) {
document.body.style.overflow = "";
}
});
After a bit of tweaking I managed to find this solution, though I'm not sure of a better one, which involves accessing the actual slide's (and previous slide's) elements and hiding/showing their scrollbars via CSS overflow
:
$(".fancybox").fancybox({
type: "inline",
beforeMove: function (instance, slide) {
// Hide scrollbar for fancybox bug fix
instance.slides[instance.prevIndex].$slide.css("overflow", "hidden");
slide.$slide.css("overflow", "hidden");
},
afterMove: function (instance, slide) {
// Restore scrollbar for fancybox bug fix
instance.slides[instance.prevIndex].$slide.css("overflow", "");
slide.$slide.css("overflow", "");
}
});
