The site I am working on www.salonbkb.com when in a mobile browser will act responsive but will allow the user to use touch to move the site from left to right creating a whitespace on the remaining space after the drag.
Foundation.zurb.com does not do this nor do most sites I have found. I believe msn.com still does this.
How can I prevent this from happening.
I tried
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no"/>
but that didn't do anything.
A page will not do this ordinarily if you have width=device-width, initial-scale=1
. Some element is stretching the page, allowing the user to pan sideways. This will often happen if you have margins on a 100% width element, or if box-sizing
is not set to border-box
and there is padding on the 100% width element. You just need to find the element (chrome devtools is useful for this, keep scrolling down and try to find the one with a big border that sticks out) and modify or remove it.
By the way, I would highly recommend against setting user-scalable=no
or maximum-scale=1
. It's terrible for usability. Users should be able to zoom in. There are almost no good use cases for this. If you're concerned about tap delay, use fastclick .
You can use javascript to disable the default actions of the browser (like page drag).
document.addEventListener("touchmove",function(event){event.preventDefault();});
BUT, that will stop the user from being able to scroll down also. to prevent only sideways you would have to add conditions that check the touch direction...
document.addEventListener("touchmove",function(event){
if(//check if the absolute value
of last touch.x -current touch.x
is greater than some threshhold){
event.preventDefault();
}
});
