Ahh.. This might explain why 1.0.4 breaks a hack I made to fix an IE bug. I create an <iframe> element to "shield" DHTML layers absolutely positioned over select boxes. I was using $().show(10) to force the expansion of the Iframe within the box. This gives the box the exact dimensions required to fit the content. Therefore, it was a handy way to dynamically shape the iframe to match the contents of the CMcontactEmail_msgtxt in the example below. Now that height and width are being cleared after making the div visible, my iframe is not sized appropriately, and my hack doesn't work.
[Version 1.0.3] <div style="overflow: visible; display: block; position: absolute; left: 583px; top: 199px; height: 16px; width: 58px; opacity: 0.9999;" class="popmsg" id="CMcontactEmail_msg"> <!--[if lte IE 6.5]><iframe src='../foo.html' frameborder='0' scrolling='no'></iframe><![endif]--> <div class="popmsgtxt" id="CMcontactEmail_msgtxt"><b>Required</b></div> </div> [Version 1.0.4] <div style="display: block; position: absolute; left: 583px; top: 199px; opacity: 0.9999;" class="popmsg" id="CMcontactEmail_msg"> <!--[if lte IE 6.5]><iframe src='../foo.html' frameborder='0' scrolling='no'></iframe><![endif]--> <div class="popmsgtxt" id="CMcontactEmail_msgtxt"><b>Required</b></div> </div> Is there any easy way to achieve this same effect in 1.0.4? Honestly, I really hate this hack and would welcome recommendations on an alternative solution Select box. I have intentions of someday creating a jquery plugin to replace select boxes with customizable css dropdowns (while maintaining the selectbox hidden in form). -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brandon Aaron Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2007 9:23 AM To: jQuery Discussion. Subject: Re: [jQuery] slideUp/Down flicker with 1.0.4 I'm not actually able to reproduce the flicker on Firefox 2 on mac or Firefox 1.5 on pc with either link. However, I do believe it is possible to have a flicker if the system is bogged down and here is why. Previous to 1.0.4 there were problems with nested and dynamically loaded html into slideDown or slideUp areas. This is because the fx module was sloppy and would leave behind inline styles like height. This would result in incorrect sizes if the html/content inside the slideDown/slideUp area was changed. So the solution and the proper way to handle this is to remove inline styles when possible (when a 'hide' or 'show' animation has completed). What you are seeing is that during a 'show' operation, the element is set to display: block, caches the original height and then resets the height to 0 to being the animation to its original height. I will be looking into a solution to see if we can prevent the flicker while also allowing for variable heights and allowing the fx module to properly clean up after itself. -- Brandon Aaron On 1/4/07, Mika Tuupola <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Upon upgrading to jQuery 1.0.4 some of my slideUp/Down elements > started to flicker.
