We have a problem, though. Our modal panel, despite being full screen, is still a child of thebodytag. This means we can stillscrollthe main window! We don't want users to interact with the main window in any way while the modal is open, so we must disable scrolling on thebody.
The trick is to add the CSSoverflowproperty to thebodytag and set it tohidden. This has the effect of clipping any overflow (that is, part of the page not currently in view), and the rest of the content will be made invisible.
We'll need to dynamically add and remove this CSS rule, as we obviously want to be able to scroll through the page when the modal is closed. So, let's create a class calledmodal-openthatwe can apply to thebodytag when the modal is open.
style.css:
body.modal-open {
overflow: hidden;
position: fixed;
}
We can usev-bind:classto add/remove this class, right? Unfortunately, no. Remember that Vue only has dominion over the element where it is mounted:
<body>
<p id="app">
</p>
</body>
If we add a directive to thebodytag, it willnotbe seen by Vue.
