how to fix shifting after animation in IE

Hi, I just made a text animation (fade in; animate(top, opacity)) and at the end, the text went about 5px left then returned to its original position, quite quickly.

I've got a layout bug that shows up in IE6, and I'm trying to come up with a way to give some clues to this content in our content area so that it won't drop down below the navigation menu.

IE onPaste event using javascript not HTML

It seems that the only way to add an onPaste event to an input element is to use HTML: <textarea id="text_area" onpaste="on_paste" /> rather than being able to attach the event handler using javascript: document.getElementById('text_area').onPaste = function() { alert('I iz in ur textbox, pasting some text') }; The MSDN website say...

Use Googlemap from my Delphi application ?

I'm a member in a team that maintains a quite big inhouse Delphi application. Now we have started to look at mapsupport.
