I'm new to jQuery, and enjoying it very much so far. One issue I'm having is limited to firefox on mac, but that's my regular browser, so it's rather painful. I've googled and seen the issue come up before, but no remedies or suggestions offered.
The problem is that whenever I use any kind of jQuery fade effect, all text on the page is rendered too thin. This happens when the fade effect is applied, and it affects all text on the page even if only a single small page element is faded. It looks like it could be a bug with firefox itself, but I notice that script.aculo.us and mootools fade effects don't have the same problem, so it does seem to be jQuery-specific. It happens on every jQuery site I've seen which uses fade effects, but it's usually not that noticeable. But I'm developing a site with a rather extreme light-on-dark color scheme, and that makes the problem very much more pronounced... almost bad enough that I may have to remove all fade effects, which would be a pity, because they're not just cool... they're valuable interface enhancements. Anyone a) not think I'm crazy and/or seeing things, and b) know of a fix or workaround? Any and all help appreciated. (should this be posted to the Dev list?)
