document.scrollingElement
A polyfill for document.scrollingElement as defined in the CSSOM specification.
Installation
In an HTML document:
It’s recommended to place this right before the closing </body> tag.
The polyfill can be used in frameset HTML documents (in that case, place the <script> in the <head>) or in XML documents as well.
Browser support
The polyfill has been tested in the following browsers:
- Chrome
- Opera 11.64+
- Firefox 3.5+
- Internet Explorer 8+ (but should work even in older versions)
- Safari 8+ (but should work even in Safari 4)
Acknowledgements
