Can't scroll down page. was created by Gary James

I've been on my world list a few times to sort a taxonomic update but apart from page 1 I can't scroll down the page to find the highlighted species. Any ideas? Still using the latest internet explorer.

Wow, I didn't realise anyone still used Internet Explorer! I thought Microsoft had made it difficult to keep using it now that they have Edge.

IE isn't installed on my computer, and in Edge and Chrome this works fine, so I'd suggest you try a different browser.

Thanks! I did wonder. In general I don't like changing anything I'm used to until I'm forced to-I've only just moved to windows 10 with the withdrawal of support for 7.

FWIW, I'm using Firefox on Windows 10 and can't scroll down the page either (I have to grab the scroll bar on the RH side).

Hi Nick

How are you trying to scroll that isn't working, if using the scroll bar is fine?

Hi Mike,

Using my mouse scroll wheel. I wouldn't have mentioned it here if it was a general problem, but it's only on BUBO this happens (started after the recent - and rather lovely - layout changes).

It's not a major issue of course, but seeing the other comments I wondered if others had noticed this behaviour too.

That is very strange! I can't see how anything should impact whether a scroll wheel works on some pages and not others, and some browsers and not others. It works for me in various browsers. Can you send me a link to a particular page where it does not work?

Cheers

Mine is working ok now with edge browser. Previously wouldn't scroll with mouse wheel or side bar on any page of any list apart from the first one.

Not a major issue indeed, but I have the same problem with mouse wheel scrolling in Firefox.

I've just tried with the latest version of Firefox and the scroll wheel is working fine for me. Where exactly do you get the problem? Is it just on pages other than page 1 of your own lists, as in Gary's original message , or does it occur when viewing any list?

Cheers

Hi Mike,

The issue (for me at least) is very minor in the great scheme of things, but it seems to be caused by the "stickiness" of the red bar across the top of the page. You can get past it, bit you have to scroll quite firmly; easier on my Mac trackpad than with a mouse scroll wheel on a Windows 10 PC.

Video below of the issue on my Mac. Seems to be on all the pages.

I'm sorry this minor issue taking up your time on your otherwise impeccable site, but thanks for looking into it.

Best Regards
Nick

Hi Nick

That video is really helpful, thank you. I can make it happen on Firefox (but not other browsers) if I start scrolling very slowly. I can see it's annoying so I will see if anything can be done!

Cheers

Thanks for the video Nick, I have been having the same issue for a month or so now as well on my Mac using Firefox.

I've implemented the 'sticky' header in a different way now, so scrolling should work fine in Firefox and all other browsers.

Hi Mike,

The issue is solved for me too - thanks for looking into this.

For info only (it's not an issue), for me the behaviour of the sticky header is different on a Mac and a Windows PC:
- On MacOS, running Firefox 73.0.1, the header remains in view as I scroll down the screen.
- On a PC with Window 10, running Firefox 68.5.0 (32-bit), the latest extended support release, the header doesn't follow as you scroll down - it disappears from view.

Best Regards
Nick

Hmmm, it never seems to be perfect for everyone! It remains sticky for me on Win 10 and Firefox 73.0.1 (64-bit) so I assume it ought to be ok when you upgrade.

Cheers
