Hi Max,
Tucker discovered that turning off the IE-specific quirk,
inputtext_parents_cannot_contain_clip, seems to fix the problem. I've
been testing it in IE7/IE8 and it looks good. This quirk was introduced
in r5195 (LPP-3691). Can you think of a reason why this quirk is still
needed?
To summarize the quirk,
In LzInputTextSprite#__show:
if (this.quirks['inputtext_parents_cannot_contain_clip']) {
var sprites = this.__findParents('clip');
var l = sprites.length;
if (l > 1) {
if (this._shownclipvals == null) {
//if ($debug) Debug.warn('IE may not show the contents
of inputtexts whose intermediate parents have clipping on. The
following parents have clip set:', sprites);
// store old values
this._shownclipvals = [];
this._shownclippedsprites = sprites;
for (var n = 0; n < l; n++) {
var v = sprites[n];
this._shownclipvals[n] =
v.__LZclickcontainerdiv.style.clip;
v.__LZclickcontainerdiv.style.clip = 'rect(auto
auto auto auto)';
}
}
}
}
In LzInputTextSprite#__hide:
if (this.quirks['inputtext_parents_cannot_contain_clip']) {
if (this._shownclipvals != null) {
// restore old values
for (var n = 0; n < this._shownclipvals.length; n++) {
var v = this._shownclippedsprites[n];
v.__LZclickcontainerdiv.style.clip =
this._shownclipvals[n];
}
this._shownclipvals = null;
this._shownclippedsprites = null;
}
}
Thanks!
Phil
