Please freeze the page when the animated gif is displayed

[dgrammatiko]

Whenever the joomla logo is displayed an overlay is also rendered BUT the page can still be scrolled

The effect is painful for the eyes.

Suggestion

Add a css style

body.modal-open {
    overflow: hidden;
    -ms-overflow-style: none;
} 

And these two lines of javascript in the relevant places e.g. init ajax, onSuccess

$('body').addClass('modal-open');
$('body').removeClass('modal-open');

This will freeze the page and will be much better

Just as a reminder this code comes from joomla/joomla-cms#6964
which is RTC and most probably will make it to 3.4.2 so maybe the css styling won’t be necessary

Thanks

+1 although as this is going to support old 3.x versions of Joomla as well I guess we should add in the CSS

[dgrammatiko]

@wilsonge is right here. Always declare that class, if it already exists (e.g. >3.4.2) it will just override itself (same code)!

Good idea, PR welcome 👍 .
However, please preferably use a separate prefixed name for the class, so that we don't collide with Joomla base classes. ;-)

@beat #23 should do that! Closing this
