I got an element fixed in the center of the screen, having specific dimensions (let’s say 500×500). The element has content, which is larger then the height of the element and thus causes scroll bar to appear, which is fine. In FF/WebKit everything works nice. However in IE 7/8 … content of the fixed element doesn’t scroll, or scrolls with HUGE delay. If I change position:fixed to position:absolute, it starts to scroll fine, but with position:fixed… it’s just a pain!..
Is it some known issue? Anyone heard/encountered something like that? Any ideas how to deal with such?…
It turned out that there was additional problem to this – shadow filter beneath that element with position:fixed and scrolling content within it. We couldn’t find any solution to this other then either disabling shadow filter in IEs or disabling position:fixed.
🙁
