Hi Šime,

Thanks for your question.

My demo is at

http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/5743

more specifically the attachement

http://dev.jquery.com/attachment/ticket/5743/ScrollFlickerSimple.html

I did not include in my testcase the DOM method to get the CSS
attribute directly, only through jQuery. If I get it directly, then
there is no flicker. So this has nothing to do with FireFox.

I am complaining that jQuery manipulates the browser with CSS updates
when in fact I am only making a read-only call. This is extremely
upsetting and actually illegal in IT. My page (orders of magnitudes
more complex than the testcase) completely disappears for a second.
