Select with 248 options causes flicker in .show(500)
Hi all,
First, jquery is a awesome tool, and I'm very happy with it.
However! I find that with Firefox 3.6.3 and jquery 1.4.2, I am getting flickering in the animation when I call .show(500) on an element that contains a select with 248 options. Taking out most of the options (either using Firebug to delete them from the DOM or by "going to" javascript:alert($("option").addClass("displayNoneClass")) before showing) causes the flickering to go away.
Before I go trying to reduce my page source to the least-complicated example exhibiting the problem, I'm wondering if anybody has seen something like this before and has a solution besides the one I'm using. If I'm the first, hopefully someone else will find this useful. I would recommend being a bit more selective in taking out your options than I was, though.
Cheers!
Don
