CSS overflow-anchor Property
Definition and Usage
The overflow-anchor property makes it possible to turn off scroll anchoring.
Scroll anchoring is a feature in the browser that prevents a viewable area that is scrolled into focus to move when new content is loaded above. This is typically a problem on a slow connection if the user scrolls down and starts reading before the page is fully loaded.
