I have a button in bottom part of my website. On ios devices in safari browser, when i try to click it, it first opens footer section of browser and then i have to tap again to click the button. How can i click button in one tap?

height: 100vh (this will set your content to have maximum possible height)
overflow-y: scroll (this will make that div/element scrollable and hence browser won't notice that you are scrolling when actually you are scrolling.)
Due to ios safari's default behaviour when you scroll on page it automatically hides header and footer of browser. Now if you have a button on bottom part of your website, you will have to tap twice to make it work. The first tap will trigger safari footer section (assuming you wanted to open footer section) and second tap will actually trigger click event on button.
One of main reason of this thing causing an issue is, whenever you scroll, safari notices that you have scrolled and you will keep scrolling. To show you maximum content on website it hides footer and addressbar. and that's why using overflow-y: scroll is mandatory.
P.S.
Because you are now scrolling within the div/element window.addEventListener('scroll', function()) won't work anymore. To fix that, you can use document.getElementById('your-div-id').addEventListener('scroll', function())
Apart from this window.pageYoffset will always be 0. To get pageYOffset, you can use getBoundingRect property of the div on which overflow-y:scroll was added.
For example:scrollPosition = document.getElementById('your-div-id').getBoundingClientRect().top
This will give you height from top of the div till you have scrolled.
Happy debugging

I have a layout with a div.header and a div.body with a form and some inputs inside.
The div.header is position absolute so does the div.body.
Both are at the same level, one below the other, have a height and it is possible to scroll when the content is larger than the height.
<div class="header">HEADER</div>
<div class="body">BODY</div>
So when the div.container has a lot of content, we can scroll the content. And the header will remain unchanged so it looks like stick to the top.
My question is on safari iOS, it seems like when the keyboard is opened after taping on a input, we suddenly can scroll the whole layout. And so the div.header shift up. Is there any way to disabled that ?
On android, only the div.body will be scrollable. And so the header looks sticky.
I have a simple page with fixed header and footer. When it Slides from page1 to page2, the footer on page is first shown at the position where the content of page2 is ended (somewhat middle) then after page finish sliding the footer re-position itself and move to bottom. Is there any way to avoid this?
In the pageshow event handler of the second page you can try adding the following code snippet:
$.mobile.fixedToolbars.show(true);
I believe this is a bug in JQM. It happens when the page content is shorter than the screen size.
My educated guess, why it happens:
After transitions, JQM triggers updateLayout, which recalculates footer position by hiding-recalulate-showing
Toolbars are hidden using CSS:top property and setting it to 0
So on a long page, to hide the footer CSS:top is set to 0, pushing your footer down to where it would be in a static page flow = the end of your document.
To show the footer, JQM calculates, where you are on your page vs. your screen size and footer height and comes up with some CSS:top = -12345px. Check CSS-top in Firebug when the footer is visible.
= to hide: CSS-top = 0
= to show: CSS-top = -1234px
Now if your page is shorter than the screen height (screen 600px, page 200px for example), hiding the footer by setting CSS:top=0 will stick it to the end of the page, which is right in the middle of your screen at 200px.
Since updateLayout recalculates footer position, it is hidden-recalculated-shown. And there you have your jumping footer.
I've done a fix with pull request on Github - https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/pull/3050.
I guess since the toolbars will switch to pos:fixed with JQM 1.1. nobody bothered to pull it in any more. But it work nevertheless.
The default behavior in jquerymobile when I have header, content and footer (where header/footer are fixed) is that when I scroll the content the header/footer show/hide. I mean when you start scrolling the header/footer hides and when u stop scrolling the header/footer are shown again. On devices its looks very bad/none-user friendly. I want to avoid this show/hide effects of header/footer. Is there any thing thats available in jquerymobile or some of its plugin to avoid it? If nothing then I want to apply iScroll on the content. Can someone guide me how to make data-role="content" using full-screen height?
If this is what you are referring to, then you can just remove the data-position: fixed from the headers and footers. I tried it on the iPhone, and it is still buggy (seems to flicker whenever a touch event it generated, even if it is not necessary).
When I load the page, my scrollview works perfectly, but when I navigate away from the main page and I try to return to it, the scrollview forgets where the top of the scrollview ought to be. It thinks that the place that I left the scrollview at before navigating away is the top of the list, and it thinks that the bottom of the list is somewhere beyond where the bottom actually is, thus it allows the user to scroll to far and then the scrollview disappears and cant be recovered unless i call scrollTo in the console.
I have tried doing scrollTo(0,0) on pagehide and beforepagehide with no luck -- the page will begin at the top when its shown, but it will immediately scroll down.
Here's how to reproduce the issue:
1) Go to http://7.latest.foodtrucksmap.appspot.com/m/la
2) Scroll down the list and select the detail disclosure on one of the cells.
3) Hit the 'Map' icon in the header to return to the original view.
At this point the scrollview will be in the state I've described.
Thanks a lot for the assistance in getting this resolved.
I resolved this by calling $('#list_content').scrollTop(0) on pageshow
I'm creating a mock-up of a function to be added to a mobile version of a site. The idea is to have a horizontally scrolling footer of links with vertically scrolling content; in effect, recreating the functionality of the native iOS behavior when double-tapping the home button.
Problem: when the page loads, it appears the viewport is not getting recalculated to match the new content area height. This leaves an ugly blank area (apparently the size of the URL bar in iOS Safari) below the scrollable footer.
I've tried adding a timeout to recalculate the height (using the function in scrollview.js). When using a fixed-position footer, the footer behaves strangely but eventually reappears in the expected place - the blank space remains, however.
