I am using YUI Dialog.But vertical scrollbar does not apper even after doing
overflow to auto.
It works fine if i give the height attribute while creating dialog
Here is the code http://jsfiddle.net/SNfcG/
I think you're going to need to dynamically set the height in order for it to get the scrollbar (so set height based on viewport size on page load, then reset it if the window is resized). I don't think that YUI2 panel does this out of the box for you.

I am trying to change the size of the UI Elements within a UWP Window on the change of the size of the window itself, such as clicking the edge of the window and dragging right. However, on increase of size, there seems to be Bounds set on the creation of the Window for the maximum size of the content, is there anyway to bypass this Bounds?
Try setting the UI Element's HorizontalAlignment and/or VerticalAlignment to "Stretch". Alternatively, if you want to scale it too, you may put the whole thing in a ViewBox. There are really quite a few options to achieve what you want.
i need to put a horizontal scrollbar in a dynamically created Hbox. im writting the code like this:
hbxWallAImg = new HBox();
hbxWallAImg.horizontalScrollPolicy="on";
but still the no scrollbar is comming.
i have tried by setStyle also. but it is also not working.
The scroll bar will not be visible unless the content of the box doesn't fit in the box's view port. So just by setting the scroll policy, it won't be displayed, but rather when the element will "know" that in case its content doesn't fit, it should display scroll bars. You also need to add some children and dimensions (with, height) to the HBox.
Without dimensions, it will "stretch" as much as it needs to accommodate the content, so no scroll bars will be visible in this case also.
You can find all the info about view ports and scrolling in Flex 4 here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/flex4_viewport_scrolling.html
Hope this helps.
Have a good day,

I've been struggling for weeks trying to crack this nut so I'm not sure if it's impossible, or if it's my lack of coding chops... or both. I'm not a programmer and I'm a newbie to Dojo Toolkit.
I have a site using the BorderContainer layout. I'm trying to create an effect where I can use a button to open and close a dropdown type box that will contain controls. I need this dropdown to be hidden on page load, and then open when you click the button.
My problem is that when I open the dropdown, it pushes the content pane below it off the bottom of the browser window. I need the lower ContentPane to stay fit within the remaining space of the browser window when the dropdown opens. Additionally, I want the dropdown to sit outside of the scrollable container for the content below it, which is why I have it set up to sit outside a nested BorderContainer below it.
I've created a simplified version of the code to demonstrate my challenge (see link below). If you load the page you can see the center ContentPane scrolls the content. But, if you then click on the button, a dropdown div expands above the content. Then when you scroll, you'll notice that you can't see the full pane because it's in no-man's-land below the bottom of the browser window. I assume that because the div is set to display:none on load, it's size is not accounted for on page load. Then, when you open it by pressing the button, it's size is additive and the pane below doesn't know how to resize or account for the new element.
I've tried using the visibility attribute, but that leaves a gap for the div when it's still closed. I've tinkered with some code that controls the height that shows promise, but each of my dropdown boxes will be different sizes so I'd prefer that the height be set to "auto" rather than a specified pixel size.
Does anyone have any idea how I can accomplish this so that the lower pane will fit in the space without pushing off the screen?
Here's a sample of the page:
http://equium.com/scaffold.html
(I had some problems trying to insert the full HTML page here as a code sample so if that's a preferable way to handle it, and someone can let me know the best way to embed all of that code, I'd appreciate it.)
Thanks is advance, I'd really apprecaite anyone's feedback.
You might want to take a look at dojox.layout.ExpandoPane (though be warned I think it has only worked properly for top and left regions for a while).
Also, I'd suggest simplifying/altering your layout a bit. See example here:
http://jsfiddle.net/taFzv/
(It'd probably need some tweaking to get exactly what you want.)
The real issue you're having is probably that the BorderContainer has no idea that parts of the view resized. ExpandoPane takes care of that by telling the BorderContainer to re-layout after its animation completes.
It works under IE8.0. When dropdown box open, just keep pressing mouse from page and drag to bottom, you could see the content was pushed to out of page. It looks the browser could not detect it and could not add it to "scroll bar" account.
I would suggest taking out all BorderContainers except your top level one, the one with mainPage as the id.
Place your {stuff here} div into the mainPage BorderContainer, after the ContentPane with the Close/Open button. Make sure you make it dojotype dijit.layout.ContentPane, set up layoutpriority, and set region to top. Set the height to 0/x when clicking the Open/Close button, instead of setting display.
Try your page again. If that doesn't fix it, you probably need, a call to layout, resize, or both to indicate to the BorderContainer that it needs to evaluate all its children and size the "center" pane properly. Something like dijit.byId("mainPage").layout(); Do this any time someone presses the Close/Open button, after you have changed the height of any BorderContainer children.
Maybe the dijit.form.DropDownButton would fit your needs. When click the button a tooltip is displayed that can be filled with any content you want. Just as you specified, the dropdown tooltip is only displayed when you click the button, and it doesn't mess with the underlying layout at all. The tooltip sits "on top" of the page.
I have a tab control in my main page. When I have it in the Design view in Visual Studio, everything looks perfect, the tab control is set to fill the entire page. However when I run the program, and I have it in a maximized browser window, the tab control is still the same size as it originally was. In other words, the tab control does not resize proportionally to the browser window resize.
So I was wondering if there was a way to change a setting on my tab control or maybe some code that would force the tab control to resize along with the browser window?

Ok, so after tinkering with this for the last couple days, I've finally found the answer. I feel like a rookie for not doing this sooner, but I got to looking at the title bar on the top of the page and noticed that it stretched across the screen when the browser window was maximized and when it was resized, the title bar shrunk to fit. So I looked at the properties of the title bar and saw that it's horizontal/vertical alignment was set to "stretch." I know, it's a rookie mistake, but it just never occurred to me that "stretch" was an option in the alignment property.
Long story short, change the horizontal alignment property to "stretch," vertical alignment property to "stretch," and then set the height property of the control to "auto" and the width property to "auto" and you've got yourself an auto-resized control.
I fixed the way the content was being pushed down with using the +position:absolute !important; hack that i've found. But now my question is no matter how i style the top (in the jqmWindow in IE it still seems to popup the window in the middle of the page. In FF however i've gotten the page to be more towards the top. The reason why i need to move this jqm window is that there is more info on the div (jqm) then will fit on the screen. Is there a way just to make the window a certain size and have scroll bars on the side if the content is larger? Thanks for the help.
you should be able to wrap the contents of the window in a div and set it's height, as well as overflow
div.wrap{
height:220px;
overflow:scroll;
}
