The challenge

Today, one of our clients asked us improve the user experience in a responsive website by adding the possibility to scroll when with “a touch” of the user when he visits the website with his iPad, in this case we have a huge data table, and for that reason the resolution of the iPad is not enough to show all the columns in it.

Solution

So after looking for some information, this is the way we reached the expected result:

1) We created a scrollable-container, this div has the huge data table:

2) Then, with a few lines of CSS and using a property that is available for all modern-webkit-based browsers, the result was really cool!

So, that’s it!

I hope you find useful this article for your future projects.

See you next time, and remember be happy with your code!

For Yosemite, run this command in Terminal:
sudo discoveryutil udnsflushcaches

For Mavericks run:
dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder

For Lion and Mountain Lion run:
sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder

For Windows, run this command in command line:
ipconfig /flushdns

  2. Select DNS.
  3. Push the “Clear host cache” button.

 

That’s it for today!

See you next time.
