I have been working with SIFR 3.0 for some time now and the font-size never seems to work correctly. I understand the most basic concepts behind SIFR. SIFR runs when you load the page. It does some calculations one the size of the HTML rendered font and then replaces it with a flash movie that is roughly equal to that size. Because of...

I'm trying to use jQuery 1.3.1's :not selector with sIFR Ver. 3 Rev. 436. I've enabled the use of jQuery selector's as per the instructions at the sIFR Wiki, and basic selector's work which leads me to believe that sIFR is using the jQuery selectors. More advanced jQuery selector's are not, though. To enable jQuery selector's I remove...

I've noticed inconsistent behavior when I try to tab through links on web pages that have implemented sifr 2.0.7. In IE7, I cannot successfully tab through an entire page.

I've noticed this issue in previous versions of Firefox whereby after scrolling sIFR links become inactive and need to be clicked in order to become links again. The fix for this was fairly straightforward and just required you to add 'fixFocus: true' in the sIFR config. Unfortunately when I upgraded to Firefox 3.6 this fix no longer wo...
