slimScroll is a small (4.6KB) jQuery plugin that transforms any div into a scrollable area with a nice scrollbar - similar to the one Facebook and Google started using in their products recently. slimScroll doesn't occupy any visual space as it only appears on a user initiated mouse-over. User can drag the scrollbar or use mouse-wheel to change the scroll value.
SlimScroll has been around for a long time, and it is very stable and extreamly lightweight. In all sense of the word it gets the job done efficiently.
Example for Size, position and direction
position: 'left'
, height: '300px'
, railVisible: true
, alwaysVisible: true
