Hi, I seem to have a problem with SIFR3. I'm using version 436 and from all my testing it appears to be a problem associated with IE6 and IE7 as I cannot replicate the issue in Firefox, Chrome, Safari for Windows, or even IE8. The problem is occurring on my company's website and can be seen here: http://www.wyldeia.co.uk/blog.php When...
I'm trying to use sIFR to create a tag cloud effect for a homepage I'm working on. There are 4 lines of text, with various font sizes and font colours within each line. I suspect sIFR purists would say this creates too many movie clips to be safe, but it really is the effect we're looking for and it's the best option we have which is g...
Hiya, Is it possible to have sIFR "preload" or load before the rest of the page content? At present it is the last thing to load (due to the text position) and as it's quite an obvious part of the page I get a huge mash-up of text replacement all in a quick flurry which is not very appealing. It looks like the site is having an epilep...
Hello, I have a simple line of text I'm replacing with sIFR for a header on my site. The site is liquid so it scales when the browser window changes width. But when I shrink the browser window down, the alt text (when I turn it on for testing) wraps to another line, but the sIFR text doesn't. I've seen written elsewhere on the web that...

Hi there, i've just been trying to figure this out... All is well in Firefox(PC/Mac), but Safari (PC/mac), and 3 versions of IE(6,7,8) are not playing ball - please read on... Context: I have a small tabbed content area with 3 alternate content - they each have siFR headers, with exactly the same mark up. I'm using simple jQuery show(...
hi, i'm after a way to remove the outline focus that firefox applies to my page: http://www.bevelite.com.au/test i've read that applying the following will fix this but can't seem to apply it to my code: sIFR.replace(movie, {fixFocus: true}); my code: sIFR.replace(univers47cl, { selector: 'h1.test', wmode: 'transparent', css: [ '....
With browser support / licensing issues of @font-face (a feature of CSS3), which intermediate option do you prefer? Cufon,Typeface.js, or SIFR? Cufon is new but has been getting a lot of praise from the web design community, how does it differ from Typeface.js ? ...
I'm using sIFR 3 on the following website http://www.bevelite.com.au/test2 which works a charm! The only problem is that I've got a footer div set to sit absolutely at the bottom of the page which it does but once sIFR has finished rendering it puts some extra space below the footer, defeating the purpose of my absolutely positioned foot...
SIFR 3 Beta is working so well for me except for the text alignment tag. Is it just me or it is possible that it is a bug? I will post some details soon. In the meantime, let me know if you succeeded aligning right or center. ...

I'm using sifr for the first time today. I have it up and running; however, I need some help. Rather than explain, I'll show you the code below: <div id="pullquote">“Fantastic property, facilities and location. We couldn’t have asked for more!” <em>Mr & Mrs. Smith</em></div> So far, so good. I have then styled that in the s...
I'm using SIFR 3.0 in combination with suckerfish popup menus. I only want to SIFR the top level li's and not apply the effect to the nested ones. I'm also using WordPress, so restructuring the menu, like wrapping the parent in a <div> or other object is too hard (I'm still figuring out the basics of WordPress). Is there a way to turn S...
Hello everyone: I just recently launched my blog, and I think that sIFR is causing intial page loads to stall, basically causing an internal 500 error or timeout. The URL for the site is http://gothamblack.com/ For the life of me, I cannot determine what is going on. I am currently running the latest version of sIFR, with the replace...
I'm having two major issues on my site: 1) A series of links is cutting off the left edges of the menu items and also seemingly transposing characters from other items in the list 2) I'm having a massive font-size jump: anything between 2em and 3.95em are identical in size, but the moment it steps above that the size jumps hugely. I r...
I'm trying to use siFR to replace H1 and H2 content on my page but it appears to be only replacing the first two. There are about 8 in all so some of them aren't on the page until you scroll down, and it appears that siFR is only replacing the items "above the fold" I know next to nothing about javascript so can anyone tell me how to s...
I'm trying to sifr ul#menu div, but exclude ul#menu div div I've experimented from the instructions on the Novemberborn Tricks page: http://wiki.novemberborn.net/sifr3/Tricks But haven't been able to figure out the syntax. I can't seem to make it work. Does anyone know if the EXCLUDE feature can be used on this without specifying a cl...
I'm implementing sirf in a site using a Drupal module. I've a a few issues... During testing the text fails in Safari 4 beta (win) and renders with a green background when transparency is applied. No doubt a Safari or plug in issue. There are a few crap things happening, the Lightbox overlay fails to cover any Flash objects. I'm sure y...
Hi all, I know the version I am using is old (compared to sIFR3), but just need help for quick tweaks if it is possible. The css styles i have pasted below, the problem is the text comes out in different sizes, i have also provided a link for the screencap. I just need sIFR to display dynamic content in a specific size with no added co...
