you can set overflow hidden to disable the scrolling.

$('#yourDiv').css('overflow','hidden');

and to set scrol

 $('#yourDiv').css('overflow','scroll')

You can stop the vertical scrolling by keeping the popup position : fixed in css. Or you can do is keep overflow : hidden for body If you want this to be done from JavaScript then jQuery has the solution to change the css from .css() :)
