Hi,
I'm using JQuery 1.6rc6, and I am attempting to create dialog boxes
which I had no trouble with using 1.5 and have no trouble with in
Firefox, the problem is when it comes to Internet explorer (6 ro 7),
there are 4 main problems these are listed below.
Firstly I will give the code i'm using to open the dialog boxes:
function openDialog(title,node,x,y) {
$('#'+node).dialog({
width : x,
modal : true,
height : y,
title : title
});
$('#'+node).dialog('open');
}
As I said this works great in firefox, now for the problems in IE.
1. The height doesn't seem to work as it should do, If I set the
height to 300, the height seems to be around 50, always knocking
around 250 off the height, the only time I can get height working
correctly is if I use auto as the height, which I dont want to do
(more of auto later).
2. The shadow around the box on IE only covers the left and top parts
of the dialog window due to the margin: -8 0 0 -8 property, it also
has a padding of 8px all the way around, whcih in firefox expands the
shadow box and makes it fit.. this doesn't happen with IE.
3. The scrollbars that the new dialog boxes have on by default aren't
in the correct position, the left scrollbar is about 20 to 30px to the
left of where it should be and the bottom scrollbar around 10px from
the bottom of the dialog.
4. the ui.theme.css file that comes with theme roller as a ui-widget
property in at the top whcih specifies a font in 1.1em, if I leave
this font size in, the dialog box simply does even appear in ie6 or 7,
if i change this to represent percentage or pixels, the box then does
appear... very strange
With the auto property, I have also noticed in both IE and Firefox,
that the shadow doesn't expand with the dialog as it grows inside.
If anyone can help me with the 4 first errors that woudl be great
(number 4 i have got rid of by simply removing the em on the end of
the font, but the others still exist)
Thanks
Kevin
