Hi, just wondering if it’s possible to convince a browser to display something but to effectively ignore it when it comes to decided how much content is being displayed and whether a scrollbar should appear.
Safari seems to display some elements in this way, allowing for positioned elements to disappear off the screen without producing scrollbars, while Firefox will make a scrollbar appear to ensure the element is always visible.
A good example is on Shaun Inmans site: http://www.shauninman.com/
See that watermarked looking logo of his on the left hand side? Try resizing your Safari browser (I’m using 2.0) then try with Firefox. See how Firefox produces a scrollbar as soon as the element goes off the side of the screen?
I really want to reproduce Safari’s way of rendering on other browsers. Is there a simple way to do this?
