hi all... love sifr - use it all the time... but i've noticed that it does not replace text in IE 8 64bit version... works fine in regular IE 8 on windows 7, but not the 64bit version... for a test, anyone viewing this on a 64bit windows machine please take a look at the demo itself in IE 64bit: http://dev.novemberborn.net/sifr3/svn/t...
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...
Hi - is there something in the implementation of Safari4 page zoom that trips up sifr3's width calculations? When I use the browser zoom feature [zoom text unselected] on the Official SIFR3 Demo (http://dev.novemberborn.net/sifr3/beta2/demo/) on OSX Safari 4.0+, the replaced h1 text starts moving to the right and eventually the white ba...

Hello, I've recently added sIFR 3 to a website i'm building. I've got it all looking good except when you hover over the text and roll the scroll wheel the Flash text scrolls and hides the top line. The same happens when you click the text and press the down key. Is there any fix for this? Thanks ...

Is there any cons to use @font-face in compare to sIFR3? I need compatibility in all A-Grade Browsers. and If any font which is freely availabl...

So I've looked this up in a few different places, and the only answer I've seen is "style the span.sIFR-alternate element". Problem is, if I apply any styles to that element that will actually have it appear & be placed correctly, it shows up alongside the sIFR text when FlashBlock isn't present (e.g. in Safari/IE) or is disabled. Here'...

I need to implement a typographic solution, and was about to go the sIFR route, but sIFR 2 is ancient and sIFR 3 doesn't appear to have been worked on in over a year and a half. I've been looking into the @font-face method, but I'm pretty sure that the fonts I need to use do not allow web embedding. ...
