> This is pure JavaScript plugin, it does not provide any CSS. You need to implement your own!

The animation option has two keys:

`js
{
"top": "top locked",
"bottom": "bottom locked"
}
`

When an edge is locked, the value of both animation.top + animation.bottom will be removed from the locked element's class list.

Then based on the locked edge, the value of animation.top or animation.bottom is added to the class list, and removed once the browser animationend event is fired.

In chrome, The following keys causes a scroll, which may propagate to parent element.

space, pageup, pagedown , end , home, up, down

The keyboard option has one key:

`js
{ "tabindex": 0 }
`

The tabindex is required to be able to listen to keyboard events on none input elements, such as a div. The side effect of adding a tabindex is the browser highlight when the element is focused.

Which can be avoided via CSS outline property.

`css
.scrollable{ outline:0; }
`

$3

The default strictFn implementation checks if the element requires a vertical scrollbar.
`javascript
strictFn = function($element){
return $element.prop('scrollHeight') > $element.prop('clientHeight');
}
`
> In previous versions (≤ v2.1.0), The check was based on scrollbar visibility, In case you require such behavior, include the following in your script:
`javascript
$.fn.scrollLock.defaults.strictFn = function ($element) {
var clientWidth = $element.prop('clientWidth'),
offsetWidth = $element.prop('offsetWidth'),
borderRightWidth = parseInt($element.css('border-right-width'), 10),
borderLeftWidth = parseInt($element.css('border-left-width'), 10)
return clientWidth + borderLeftWidth + borderRightWidth < offsetWidth
}
`
