[jQuery] jQuery Superfish Redrawing Flash on Hover in Mac FireFox 2
Hello jQuery Community,
I have run across a problem with the superfish plugin and I was hoping
someone could help. Thanks in advance for any responses.
I am using the Superfish plugin and beneath it is a Flash object,
which I display using the <a href="http://blog.deconcept.com/
swfobject/">swfobject method</a>. This works fine in all major
browsers on both the Win and Mac platforms, with exception to Mac
FF2. On this browser, the Flash element gets redrawn on each hover of
a list element in a submenu, creating an annoying "blinking" effect.
In my research into this problem I was only able to find <a
href="http://jakeo.org/blog/2007/03/16/css-opacity-and-flash-
transparency-in-mac-firefox/">this topic</a> on a problem with Mac FF2
and Thickbox, in which the problem has to do with Mac FF2 not liking
opacity effects over Flash.
That being said, looking at the line in the code <code>animation:
{opacity:'show',height:'show'}, // fade-in and slide-down animation</
code> I changed the opacity:'show' to opacity:'100' and that fixed the
problem, but then it broke the 2nd level submenus in IE7 (haven't
tested in IE6).
I am at a loss here and I desperately need some help. I have created
a basic test at http://xyforge.com/sandbox/superfish-1.4.8/example.html
The "blinking" is not as bad on this example, but is noticeable.
Thanks again!
Robin
