John, Thanks for the follow up. This *does* improve things for later versions of IE, but does not help much with IE6sp1.
I also found today that IE6 cannot be updated much beyond sp1 on Windows 2000. I installed several hotfixes and a cumulative update that came out last month, but the problem persists. I understand that this issue is difficult to solve and only affects a small number of people so I won't be surprised or offended if this is marked as 'never-fix', though I hope it is not! I appreciate your consideration. Thanks, Michael Haren On Sun, Jul 19, 2009 at 8:37 AM, John Resig <jere...@gmail.com> wrote: > I chatted with Joern concerning the jQuery UI ticket that I filed.
