overflow:scroll becomes overflow:hidden in latest Chrome update.

[Vincent Wansink]

New bug in Chrome?  overflow-y:scroll is being replaced by overflow-y:hidden.

 

I've created a custom dropdown menu using javascript and as part of that I am applying the overflow-y css property using jQuery syntax like so:  menu.css("overflow-y","scroll");

 

This allows the user to scroll down if the list of items in the dropdown is too long for the available space.

 

However a recent Chrome update seems to have broken this functionality and it now is applying overflow-y:hidden to my menu every time, regardless of what I try to do.  This of course means there is no scroll bar and my users can not see all the items in the dropdown menu.

 

This custom dropdown menu used to work just fine and I've made no changes to the code.  I've also confirmed that it still works fine in Firefox, IE and Edge.  Only Chrome is not playing nice.

You can search crbug.com for an existing issue and star it. If you cannot find one, file a new issue using the "New issue" link on the same page.

Please, do not add a "+1" or "Me too" or "Confirmed" (or similar) comment. It just wastes the time of Chrome engineers and sends unnecessary e-mails to all of the people who starred the issue.

Be sure to attach some minimal code (removing the jQuery dependency is preferred) that shows the problem (the less code you attach, the more likely the underlying would be found and fixed sooner).

You can reply with a link to the found or created issue and might get triaged (and fixed) faster.

Thank you.
