Hiding address bar on mobile when scrolling child with overflow: auto
When you create a long base page and scroll through it, most mobile browsers do something automatically with the address bar. For example, on android chrome, when scrolling down, the address bar disappears with a scroll.
Can the same effect be achieved if you don't scroll the body? For example, if you have a child div containing content with height: 100%
and overflow: auto
.

If you want to hide the address bar on iPhone, you can use:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, minimal-ui">
There is no such simple solution for Android like iOS 7 on iPhone with meta tags.
You can try this snippet from Scott Jell to hide the panel in js targeting both iOS and Android.

(function( win ){
var doc = win.document;
// If there a hash, or addEventListener is undefined, stop here
if(!win.navigator.standalone && !location.hash && win.addEventListener ){
//scroll to 1
win.scrollTo( 0, 1 );
var scrollTop = 1,
getScrollTop = function(){
return win.pageYOffset || doc.compatMode === "CSS1Compat" && doc.documentElement.scrollTop || doc.body.scrollTop || 0;
},
//reset to 0 on bodyready, if needed
bodycheck = setInterval(function(){
if( doc.body ){
clearInterval( bodycheck );
scrollTop = getScrollTop();
win.scrollTo( 0, scrollTop === 1 ? 0 : 1 );
}
}, 15 );
win.addEventListener( "load", function(){
setTimeout(function(){
//at load, if user hasn't scrolled more than 20 or so...
if( getScrollTop() < 20 ){
//reset to hide addr bar at onload
win.scrollTo( 0, scrollTop === 1 ? 0 : 1 );
}
}, 0);
}, false );
}
})( this );
