What I'm trying to do is have a div that is directly in the body extend beyond the viewport when I overscroll downwards. Right now, when I scroll down at the bottom of the page, the content kind of "overscrolls" revealing the body's background. I want the div's background to be visible there.
I searched for a solution for hours, but couldn't find anything so I tried setting the margin-bottom to a negative value, but to no avail.
Here's the code with sample text and with a style tag instead of a seperate stylesheet file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
body{
background-color: red;
}
.content {
margin: 2% 10%;
margin-bottom: -1000px;
padding: 5% 5%;
background-color: #404040;
color: lightgrey;
overflow: visible;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="content">
<p>Content</p>
<p>spanning</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>many</p>
<p>lines</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This issue turned out to be only present when scrolling with a touchpad or touchscreen on Windows 11 in Firefox version 116.0.2 or possibly earlier versions as well
Edit: it can be turned off in about:config by setting apz.overscroll.enabled to false
