Hello,

My horizontal scroll bar is missing and disabled. Ive tried using overflow-x:scroll, overflow-x: auto, all of it. The scroll bar appears but is disabled. It works in Chrome and IE

What's up. Why would you disable the scroll bars? This makes NO sense.

Go to Google and search for something. Is there a scrollbar there?

more options

Yes there is a scroll bar there. There has always been a scroll bar there.

html {overflow-x: scroll;} Does not work in any browser.

Is the scroll bar only missing on that specific page (website) or does it happen more often?

Can you post a link to a public page that doesn't require authentication (log in) to access it?

Allpages, All websites.

No, this is an internal w/s that requires id's and pw's.

But I see this problem posted all over the place. They say to use the html overflow-x. But that doesnt work. I can use form overflow-x and it works, but looks horrible.

What ever has been done to remove the horizontal scroll, MUST be undone ASAP. That was a really bad idea.

How exactly did you implement the style rule?

In case it is being overridden by another rule, you could try adding !important. For example, if you are adding the rule to your documents:


<style type="text/css"> html{overflow-x:scroll !important;} </style>

Edit: Of course, the bar will be grayed out if the content is not wide enough to "overflow" the viewport.

I used the important rule also. Doesnt work either.

PLEASE !!! Put the horizontal scroll back in PLEASE!!!

I dont use FF, It doesnt use webkit, so it's of no use to me. But I have die hard FF clients that do.

PLEASE !!! Put the horizontal scroll back in PLEASE!!!

This was an extremely bad move

I haven't noticed the horizontal scroll bar missing from any sites. If there's no way to access your internal site for troubleshooting, we should at least rule out any potential conflicts with add-ons.

A standard diagnostic for that is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.

First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)

Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode using

Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."

If the horizontal scroll bar works correctly, this usually implicates one of your add-ons or custom settings as the problem.

If the bar is still missing in action, then someone would need to take a closer look at the HTML/CSS.

Ive done all this. It's not an add-on problem.

The horizontal bar is there but is disabled. This was working with the prior release. When I upgraded to 12 it stopped working. I have clients that have not upgraded to 12 and their application is working. And it works correctly in IE and Chrome.

Check if you have a different theme from the default, because some themes can cause the scroll bar to disappear. In this case, switch back to the default theme.

Okay, since you didn't give us a URL or test case, I turned to a web search and found the following advice:

Firefox 12 has a problem with CSS position and extremely large negative values. If you use a very large negative number to absolutely position an element off the screen, use a smaller number.

Ive tried all the before mentioned suggestions after a day of google searching.

It's on everyones browser that's using 12. If your not using 12, your good to go.

It all happened when we upgraded to 12. Everything was working correctly before then ...

It also working correctly in IE(which in it's self is a miracle) and Chrome.

If you see it on any public sites, please post a URL. As long as it only occurs behind your firewall, I don't know what else to suggest.

No horizontal scroll bar with FF 14 and listing clipped on the right. Scroll bar exists in Explorer 8. Upgraded from FF3 to FF13. Firefox did an auto upgrade to FF14. I set nothing up when I upgraded just the standard install. Really wish I had FF3 back!!!

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

I see very similar results in IE8 and Fx14. Both have a scroll bar at a certain width and then as I expand the window (this is a 1440px display) the scroll bar vanishes. The width where this happens is slightly different, but not by much.


Please note that pop-up windows may display differently than regular windows. The script code for the pop-up can remove certain controls from the new window such as scrollbars. If you think this might be what's happening, you can force scrollbars in popups using a hidden preference.

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.

(2) In the filter box, type or paste window_open and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars to switch its value from the default of false (don't disable sites from hiding scrollbars) to true (prevent sites from hiding scrollbars).

Sometimes clicking 'File' 'Exit' or End Process in Task Manager works to restore the Scroll Bar.

Here's the HTML for a simple page that exhibits this problem (in or out of safe mode) (Firefox 16.0.2, Windows 7 64-bit). As you narrow the window horizontally, no horizontal scrollbar appears.
