Hello all, I have two questions regarding this portion of the animate() method source code: /******************************/ for ( p in prop ) { [...] if ( ( p == "height" || p == "width" ) && this.style ) { [...] // Make sure that nothing sneaks out opt.overflow = this.style.overflow; } }
if ( opt.overflow != null ) this.style.overflow = "hidden"; /******************************/ I might be wrong (really), but to me this means that *whenever* an animation is executed on an element's width or height, the element wil get overflow:"hidden", no exception (this.style.overflow can only return "visible", "hidden" or an empty string, and the three of them are different from null, if I'm not wrong...) My problem today is related to this issue. I want to animate the size of a div with a child div inside it, set to overflow in its top-left corner, (kind of like the close button on Fancy Zoom's popups - http://www.cabel.name/2008/02/fancyzoom-10.html). With jQuery animate (), the parent div gets overflow:"hidden" and therefore the inside div is clipped during the anim... If I comment "opt.overflow = this.style.overflow" in jQuery's source code, everything runs as expected, no clipping. So, my two questions are: 1) what's the use of this automatic swtching to overflow:"hidden"? 2) I can't think of a way to keep my element's overflow to "visible" during its animation (without having to comment the above mentionned line on jQuery source...). Any idea, anyone? Thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
