Sure. Just a few more minor features and scripts get cross browser by 
default.

Trust me, I've checked out the usual suspects :) My objects are styled 
with in-line CSS (not classes) trimmed done to the absolutely necessary 
attributes; all the objects have explicit height.

I've previously seen jumpy animations, because in-line CSS interfered 
with a class definition elsewhere or several animations got mixed-up. I 
think I've both these potential problems ruled-out.

I can get around this problem quite easily, but it is bugging me that I 
don't have the slightest clue why my first attempt failed so miserably.

I've gone over the Effects.js source, and tried a few adjustments there 
but to no effect (pun intended)...

I hardly run Firefox without Firebug enabled these days ;)
