Hi all!

The suggested

html {
overflow-y: scroll;
}

works only in Firefox, not in Opera!

The first mentioned

html {
min-height: 101%;
}

makes too big space on the bottom of Firefox!

So the best way to force scroll in both Opera and Firefox in the same way is

html {
height:100%;
margin-bottom: 1px;
}

Cheers

The solution:

html {
overflow-y: scroll;
}

validates in CSS level 3, just not CSS level 2.1.

It works for Google Chrome as well, which handles scrollbars the same way Firfox does.

I keep hoping that Firefox will address this issue in the next version, but it never seems to happen.

Firefox is great to use, but a pain to design for.
