Hello,
I am new to jQuery and already I'm seeing problems with the built in slideDown()/slideUp() animations. I'm using a flexible width element, and when I use the function, the element does not return to it's full width. I am thinking this has something to do with the way jQuery finds the width of the element. I am experiencing the error in Safari 3 and Firefox 3.1 for OS X. Below is the html for the page:
<div id="archive">
<h2 class="first open">May</h2>
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" class="list">
<tr class="first">
<td width="65%"><a href="#">This month</a></td>
<td align="right">Sunday, May 31 <input type="button" value="Edit"/></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
And the Javascript:
// Enable month names to re-open divs
$("#archive h2").not(":last").wrapInner("<a href='#'></a>").end().find
("a").click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
var h2 = $(this).parent();
if (h2.hasClass("open")) { // Close
h2.removeClass("open");
h2.next().slideUp("fast");
} else { // Open
h2.addClass("open");
h2.next().slideDown("fast");
}
});
The problem can be somewhat solved by wrapping the in , but then a new error occurs in Firefox where the slideDown animation jumps near the end.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Brendan
