In IE, when having elements containing other elements, ie. a div containing images, when attempting to hide a content-element of a hidden container-div, this won't work, it won't even be possible anymore after re-showing the div. This problem occurs:
- only on IE6,7 (didn't try IE8), the problem doesn't occur on FF3, Op9, Saf3(Win), Chrome - only when both the container div and the content are absolutely positioned (tested both with jQuery 1.2.3 and 1.2.6) It is demonstrated here: http://www.justarrangingbits.org/webtech/jquery/demos/hideorder.htm I guess it is connected to 'hasLayout' on IE, but don't know how exactly. Struggled nearly a complete day to narrow down to what seems to be the problematic combination. Am I making a mistake? Is it a bug? Thanks for any information or help.
