I spent a lot of time trying jquery / javscript to “fix” for this to work. Since the latest update to chrome mobile for iOS, the address bar of the browser behaves differently. I am sure that you guys know what I'm talking about: you scroll down the page, the panel hides, but after scrolling up it appears. Yes, this is a good user experience, I can say.
The problem is that I have a fixed element on top of my web application (header), and every time I scroll up, the address bar goes through my fixed element.
I am browsing other web applications (twitter, gmail) and they seem to have found a way to avoid this. I would like to read your ideas on how they achieved this. There is no need to tell me not to use a fixed element.
So my question is : is there a way to avoid this? What do you think of the situation.
example: https://mobile.twitter.com/EmWatson (preferably seen on iphone)
FYI: I am using jQuery for mobile applications for my web application.
thanks.
