I already created an issue about this, but since there are new facts there, I thought creating a forum entry could bring attention on this again. Sorry if that's a bit overwhelming...

So see http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/6014 for new developments.

Thanks for bringing this up here, as well. Unfortunately I just don't think that this is something that we're going to fix natively in core - it's a strange bug for an obscure browser-specific property. Sorry :-/

No problem ;) I was myself doubting this can be considered a jQuery bug. I guess developers will have to take this into account when playing with dimensions in IE.

For people who may encounter this problem, here is a code snippet that may help :

if ($('.myselector').css('filter').match(/DXImageTransform\.Microsoft\.Shadow/)) {
height -= $('.myselector').get(0).filters.item("DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow").strength;
}

We cannot do :

if ($('.myselector').get(0).filters && $('.myselector').get(0).filters.item("DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow")) {

Since this would throw an error if no filter is set on the element.
