[jQuery] hide() and floating elements leaves white space
Tsk, I should also answer the question fully. The affected content is:
<li><a href="<link>">Link</a></li>

Ciao Richard,
i'm glad you get the solution.
could you show us the piece of code you used?
i don't understand (and i'm always curious to 'see') what you click to
remove the LI.
Is it a LI with an A and an IMG?
If so, when you remove() an element don't you 'destroy' it? How do you
pass it back as the target?
