A small jQuery plugin that traverses up the dom and checks to see if it is overflowing any of its parent elements.
Include jQuery and the plugin on a page. Then select an element and call the overflowing method, optionally passing in a limiting element and a callback function.
By default overflowing will traverse the dom up to and including the window. You can optionally pass in a parent element
in which Overflowing.js will stop at and include in the calculations.
If you are using the callback function you can use the overflowed argument to get the element being overflowed.
The callback is fired for each element that is overflowed.
<body>
<div class="parentElement">
<div class="middleElement">
<p class="targetElement"></p>
</div>
</div>
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.overflowing.js"></script>
<script>
$('.targetElement').overflowing('.parentElement', function(overflowed) {
console.log('This element is being overflowed', overflowed)
})
</script>
</body>This setup will check if .targetElement is overflowing any of its parents up to and including .parentElement and logging all the elements it overflows in the callback.
